Dr. Gene Williams was privileged to pastor for over 47 years. Upon completion of his pastoral ministry, the Lord distinctly laid the need to encourage and uplift pastors and their families upon the hearts of both Gene and his wife, Joyce. Their experiences over the years have enabled both of them to have great empathy and understanding of the heartfelt needs of pastoral families today. From pastoring a church with memberships ranging from 12 to over 1,4000.
Gene can relate to the special concerns, problems, and pressures pastors are experiencing.
They feel that God wants to use their experiences in a preventive mode, to help those who are actively involved in ministry or preparing for ministry. Shepherds Fold Ministries is intended to span all boundaries. Gene and Joyce have a burning desire to be a part of breaking down walls and barriers for the advancement of the Kingdom. We are told that a journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. A year ago we began that journey.
