Religious InstitutionsTexas, United States0-1 Employees

Bartimaeus Baptist Temple is a religious institution based in Dallas, Texas, dedicated to ministering to people with disabilities, along with their families, friends, and caregivers. Founded in 1959, the church originated as a mission of larger congregations and later established its own premises at 6929 Day Street in Southeast Dallas, a move that helped anchor its long-standing advocacy and support within the local community. The organization has historically centered its ministry on inclusivity and understanding of disability, guided by leadership that has included Pastor Don Whitmore and his successors, and currently led by Pastor Larry Thacker Jr. The church operates within the religious institutions sector, serving a specific community with accessibility-focused spiritual and relational outreach rather than a broad-based congregational model. The information indicates a small-scale operation with limited internal staffing, emphasizing steady, local presence and continuity of its mission over many decades. A recent development noted is the church’s continuation of its leadership and mission following the passing of its earlier pastors, maintaining its focus on service to people with disabilities and their support networks.
