Pastoral Care – Sedrick Wilson, Executive Pastor
Guided by the profound directive from Jesus to make disciples of all nations, our church holds a core value centered around a global mission. Rooted in our local community, this mission extends far beyond our borders, reaching every nation. The heartbeat of our church is the commitment to spreading the transformative message of discipleship. Our dedicated team members embody this mission through a diverse range of ministries, from humble tasks like washing church vehicles to the meticulous preparation of church bulletins. With a focus on both the immediate community and the broader world, we strive to be vessels of compassion, service, and discipleship, embodying the spirit of Christ’s teachings in our every endeavor.
School of Ministry – Lakesia Douthitt, Elder
Our School of Ministry is a dynamic and transformative space, encompassing the Prophetic/Deliverance ministry, where the power of prayer is recognized as indispensable. Emphasizing that prayer cannot be overestimated and acknowledging that it moves the hand of God, our Church is a united body of believers who are deeply dependent upon and committed to God’s sovereignty. Every Sunday, within the morning service, a dedicated team of volunteers fervently prays for the ministry of the Word, seeking divine guidance and blessing. Throughout the week, the Prophetic Intercessory team, comprised of passionate volunteers, uplifts their pastor, a comprehensive list of church members, special requests, and outreach prayer needs. This School of Ministry not only imparts spiritual insights but also instills a profound sense of the transformative power of prayer, fostering a community deeply connected to God’s will and purpose.
Worship | Media Team~ Carol Moore, Elder
God-honoring worship is something we strive for. Many church members get involved in our music and drama ministry. Some play their instruments. Some are vocalists. Others are involved in the choir. Still others get involved in drama. These volunteers are an important part of the ministry of our church, using their talents and gifts to glorify God. Using media to spread the gospel is a privilege of this church. In an age of widespread technology, we have a stewardship to use these tools as best as possible for kingdom purposes.
Intercessory Ministry – Lakeisha Barclay, Elder
Discipleship | Outreach ~ Jerome Douthitt, Elder
The Word Center Ministries is excited to contribute to the global expansion of God’s kingdom. Our mission at WCM is to cultivate disciples who genuinely embrace, obey, and apply God’s word in their daily lives. Following the transformative model outlined by Kent Mattox in his book, and guided by the revelations and vision bestowed upon Apostle Williams, our focus is on producing believers who undergo profound transformation. While actively engaging with our community through various service initiatives, we firmly believe that true service begins at home. The commitment to nurturing transformed believers is at the core of our ministry, and we are dedicated to fostering a community of individuals who embody the teachings of God’s word in their daily actions.

Marriage Ministry~ Teresa & Joel Phillips, Lead

Through their roles as listeners, empathizers, helpers, and encouragers, these couples, guided by God’s grace, have become instrumental in saving marriages and repairing relationships. The Marriage Ministry has become a beacon of hope, where struggling couples discover renewed joy and warmth in their relationships. Through shared experiences, wisdom, and faith, this ministry fosters an environment where couples can find the strength and tools needed to overcome obstacles, fostering a foundation for lasting and fulfilling partnerships.
D-TAG Ministries~ Marteika Keith & Nakyia Nix
Life can get complicated once you cross that nebulous threshold into adulthood. There are complicated decisions. Bigger stakes. Serious relationships. And a whole lot more decisions. The young adults of our church provides a welcoming atmosphere for teens, college, and early-career aged young people.
Determined Teen After God (D-TAG Ministries)
Mission:
The Genesis
This vision was originated and birthed during a time where Pastor Williams was seeking God, and allowed him to hear the Macedonian Cry of this generation. Across the nation, but especially in our current area, the teenagers are warring with many issues. They are fighting battle after battle…but they are not winning the war. Teen suicides, pregnancy, school-dropout rate, perversion, violence, among many other things are steadily increasing without properly educating our youth on how to cope with such issues. God allowed me to see the spirits, messengers of Satan, unleashed to buffet this generation. While they are trying to manage their issues, they are not being guided on how to develop their lives spiritually with all these hindrances.
We are churchin’ them tirelessly, but we are not reaching them; therefore, we are losing the war.
