Metro Ministries

Please read this article about Metro Ministries. I had the priveledge to serve with this ministry many years ago in Mobile, Alabama. This article is found on their website.



Bill Wilson, Founder & Senior Pastor

As a child, Pastor Bill experienced the pain and hopelessness of abandonment. One day, as he walked down a street with his mother, they stopped to sit for a while. She instructed him to sit there and wait for her to return. He sat and waited for three days straight. She never returned. A Christian gentleman who had seen Bill stranded and alone stopped and picked him up. It was here that Bill's relationship with God began.








Mission to Help Hurting Children
Out of the pain, impoverishment and isolation of his own abandonment, Bill developed a heart of compassion for suffering children everywhere. From the ghettos of America to the garbage dumps of Manila, Bill has sought to rescue hurting children.

Founding of Metro Ministries
Pastor Bill established Metro Ministries in 1980 in what was one of Brooklyn's roughest neighborhoods, the Bushwick community, most commonly known for its history of gang violence, crime, drugs, and poverty.
Here, violence is a way of life and a constant threat. Pastor Bill has been beaten, stabbed and shot in the face. Yet, he perseveres and refuses to leave the area or give up on the children growing up in such an environment. Because of that, his efforts have made a difference, not only in the lives of children but in the community as well.
Due to the success of Metro's programs, President George Bush, Sr. appointed Pastor Bill to serve on the National Commission on America's Urban Families in 1991. Metro's influence was also identified as a factor in the noticeable reduction of crime in the Bushwick community and the organization was featured on ABC's Nightline.

Today, Pastor Bill travels widely, speaking in churches nationally and internationally each week. He is frequently featured on Christian television networks throughout the U.S., Canada and Europe. And his programs, curriculum and techniques are being duplicated in cities all over the world. However one thing remains the same. Every Saturday, Pastor Bill is there in the heart of the urban jungle in Brooklyn, driving the school bus to pick up boys and girls for Sunday School.

coming soon.......

He is.....

When I think about the Lord the words: HE IS comes to mind.
Then when I sat and thought about what HE IS I was overwhelmed.
He is LOVE
He is JOY
He is PEACE
He is KIND
He is PATIENT
He is SUFFICIENT
He is GOOD
He is GENTLE
He is MERCIFUL
He is RIGHTEOUS
He is COMFORT
I can go on and on about ALL that HE IS. I am so greatful that God is everything we need. His supply never runs out. His mercies are new every morning and I am greatful for them. My prayer is that you will know Him as each one of these and more, because HE IS all that you need.

Anna is Growing Up

Being a stepmother to Anna is a true joy. She is 14 now. I am blessed to have her in my life. I am especially grateful that she has accepted Jesus Christ as her personal Savior and Lord. I can see many wonderful changes in her. One of the greatest responsibilities we have as parents is to "train up a child in the way they should go", this cannot be done without us first following Jesus ourselves.


If we don't follow Him how then can we lead our children?

Thank you Lord for the gift you have given us in our children!

The Great Commission


"Go therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the age. Amen" (Matt. 28:19-20, NKJ).
