About Our Founder

A Great Man of God

Bishop Isaiah S. Williams Jr.

In 1983, the call of God was confirmed and set in motion as Bishop Williams started the work of Jesus People Ministries Church International, Inc. Since its beginning, the church has grown to over 8,000 members and through its progressively growing membership, the ministry has an even larger number of partners throughout Florida, the United States and the world. The heart of Jesus People Ministries Church is one of domestic and foreign missions outreach with an evangelistic thrust.

Bishop Williams excelled as a student and athlete and was awarded a basketball scholarship to John J. Pershing College (Beatrice, NE), where he remained until he joined the United States Navy. Bishop Williams attended Miami Christian College and New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary and also received a Bible Diploma from Dr. Lester Sumrall's World Harvest Bible College. In 1991, he received an Honorary Doctor of Divinity Degree from All Nations of Christ Institute International, a previous affiliate of Oral Roberts University. In 2004, he received an earned Doctorate of Ministry Degree from Vision International University (Ramona, CA).

Bishop Williams taught and proclaimed the truth of the uncompromising Word of God with integrity, fervor and sound character. He operated in the full apostolic offices of the Apostle, Prophet, Pastor and Teacher, with the gifts of the Spirit in vivid operation.

He served as an accomplished author and an acclaimed conference speaker. He was an overseer of a vast number of affiliate ministers and ministries under the direction of ISWJR Ministries, and Right Connection Ministries, Inc.

Bishop Williams was elevated to the office of Bishop in April 1996, through the Azusa International Fellowship of Christian Churches and Ministries, Inc. (Tulsa, OK). JPMCI is currently a member of Creflo Dollar Ministerial Association (Atlanta, GA).
