Carol Owens Ford is a native of Washington, D.C.  She is the Senior Executive Assistant of the Greater Mount Calvary Holy Church where her brother, Dr. Alfred A. Owens, Jr., is the pastor.  Carol's organizational skills and professional skills are a significant key to Greater Mount Calvary's growth and success.

Over forty years ago at the early age of 14 years old, Carol gave her life to Christ.  Although she has not dotted every I or crossed every T, she has learned how to hold herself together because falling apart was not an option...knowing "All things work together for the good of those who love the Lord and have been called according to His purpose." Romans 8:28

Her quiet and unassuming manner does not speak to the many trials that she has overcome in her years of walking with the Lord.  It does, however, speak of her determination to overcome any and all of life's obstacles with the help of the Lord.  Her personal relationship with God has given her an unfailing strength, and through her example, she has taught others to go through the trials of life with confidence, dignity, courage and joy.  She is an anointed woman of God who has been raised up "for such a time as this."

Carol is a counselor, spiritual advisor, an excellent moderator, a teacher and an author; but above all else, she is a woman with an underlying commitment to the Lord.  She is an instructor under the Calvary Bible Institute, an entity of the Greater Mount Calvary Holy Church..

Carol has served as the keynote speaker at the Billy Graham Campsite and has appeared as a guest on "The Right Side" talk show with Armstrong Williams and was featured on BET's "Heart and Soul", where she shared her story nationwide and touched the hearts of millions.  She has also been a guest on DC Cable 26, Interfaith Voice Radio Talk Show (Washington D.C), Women Need To Know (WGTM Trinidad, West Indies) and BBC Local Radio (United Kingdom).  In September 2005, Carol served as the "inspirational speaker" for the Congressional Black Caucus in Washington D.C where she spoke to over 2500 men and women. 

Her travels have taken her to London, Paris, Italy, Trinidad, The Bahamas, Barbados and recently on mission to Brazil.

She is a graduate of the Cortez Peters Business College and the Calvary Bible Institute.  She is the proud mother of three grown children; Tiffany, Tonia and Taquarius and the proud grandmother of four, Kristiona, Gianni, Cassidy and Chloe.

Carol Owens Ford is a witness that if you want to stay saved, YOU CAN!
