Currently Dr. Washington is enrolled in Bethany Divinity College & Seminary (Albany, GA), in pursuit of additional certifications in Pastoral Ministry.
In ministry, he has a zeal for practical Christian Education, through which he works to make the doctrine of the grace of God, which is inherent in the Scriptures, applicable to daily living. Among his many educational achievements, nothing renders him prouder than his personal achievement of being the loving father of his children and grand children.

Three years later, he was chosen to Pastor Oak Grove Baptist Church (Camilla, GA). In 2008, he became the Pastor of New Jerusalem Baptist Church (Dawson, GA). In addition to pastoring, in 2006 he retired from Delphi Automotive as a Team Leader (Fitzgerald, GA). He is occasionally called upon to preach and teach at various churches throughout southwest Georgia and surrounding countries.
Pastor Dr. E.B. Washington’s favorite quote and scripture:
Dr. Washington is driven by his passion to empower the people of God to reach their full potentials in Christ. He believes that the Bible is the divine revelation and communication of God Word, that "all scripture is given by inspiration of God" (2 Timothy 3:16).
