About Dr. Gary L. Williams, Sr.
Humble and gentle as a lamb, yet wise as a serpent, the 43 year old Pastor Gary Williams has the courage of his convictions and is not intimidated to speak, teach and preach the unadulterated Word of God. He preaches with power, personality and purpose because he is passionate about seeing souls come to Christ and operate, walk, live and bask in their God given authority. Whether you know him as Pastor, Pastor Gary or Pastor Williams, to truly know him is to love him. God has blessed him with a sincere, giving Shepard's heart. His generosity and authenticity are transparent and touch all those whom he comes in contact; however it is his magnetic personality that draws people and his "no respect of person" style that make them want to remain in his presence. His leadership and ministry have been phenomenal. Some of the accomplishments are: the erection of a 16,000 square foot new edifice; a 40,000 square foot family life center; and a 24,000 square foot collegiate gymnasium. Membership has grown exponentially from approximately 75 to over 3,500. Over 30 active ministries implemented and continue to increase to meet the demands of the congregation. Two schools have been established and operating (Promise Land Preschool and Promise Land Academy). Two churches have been planted and supported (Light of the World Christian Center and Mt. Moriah Baptist Church); supports a foreign mission and sponsors missionary in Africa, and the list goes on.
