Pastor
Walter Williams III is the senior pastor of
Walk of Faith Church of Christ,
Disciples of Christ in New Haven,
Connecticut. He is a native of
Newburgh,
New York and the fifth child of
seven children. Pastor Williams attributes his teaching in ethics, morality,
hard work, character and integrity to his parents, William and Sadie Tallie.
Pastor
Williams’ spiritual foundation was developed at Mt. Carmel Church of Christ, Disciples of Christ,
under the leadership of Bishop George W. Johnson, where he was an active member
of the choir and the youth group. While in the United States Air Force and
stationed in Las Vegas,
pastor prayed for God to help him with his gambling challenge. With a heart to
live a committed life to God, shortly after his prayer, Pastor Williams
recommitted his life to the Lord and he answered God’s call to preach the Gospel
of Jesus Christ.
At
the age of 24, Pastor Williams served as the senior pastor of a 34 year old
congregation in New Haven, Connecticut. After four years of intense
pastoral on-the-job training, the visionary within Pastor Williams founded the

vision, Pastor Williams is committed to: serving God with the spirit of
excellence, community activism, equipping saints for ministry and creating an
atmosphere where the power of God and deliverance will have full reign in the
lives of believers as they fulfill their ordained kingdom purposes of God.
