Pastor - William Alfred Willis
Assistant Pastor- Bro. Phillip S. Willis
The Lord has allowed me the privilege to be born into a home where both of my parents were saved prior to my birth. Without a doubt, this had a great impact on my life as a young boy.
From the time I was born I was put under the preaching of the Word of God. I am sure there were times my parents wondered if it was having any affect in my heart and life. There would come a day when they would see the results of what the gospel preaching will do, even in the heart of a child.
I remember the night, July 1, 1979, lying all alone in my bed trying to go to sleep but for some reason I could not. All that would come to my mind was the question of where I would spend eternity. After some period of time dealing with that question, I bowed my head and acknowledged to the Lord that I was a sinner, repented of my sin, and asked Jesus into my heart. Immediately after that I talked with my parents and they took me to the Bible, which confirmed in my heart what had happened that night.
As young boy the thing that I enjoyed doing the most was setting up a room in our home like a church, calling the family together, singing a few songs, then to the best of my ability preaching a message from the Bible. Then one Wednesday night while in prayer meeting I accepted the call of God placed on my life to preach His Word.
For the past 8 years the Lord has allowed me to serve as the assistant Pastor of Life Baptist Church where my father serves as the Pastor. It has been a learning experience for me, but also a blessing to be able to work along with my father in the greatest work in the entire world.
