Pastor Bill. I met you about 15 years ago.You came and preached in Woodstock,Ontario.You did a workshop for a weekend as well.You touched my life then and you continue to do so.The name of the church was Eastdale,Christian Outreach Center.Do you remember coming to Woodstock.Pastor Paul Evered was the preacher at the time.You told me I had a gift with children and I should get my hands on as many tapes as possible.I have a huge heart for children and you and I talked after the service and we both had tears.Not many really got your heart,nor understood your calling.I do. I knew then that someday,I would come to Brooklyn,to see first hand how love has impacted Brooklyn.I know you are a humble and modest person,Pastor Bill.I have to say that you are my hero.I like what you said years ago and I will never forget it.Where the need is, thats the call.We,as Christians are always wanting a word, to hear the audible voice of God.I believe when you are so moved,as you were years ago,that was the call. You are an amazing man.I would love to just be able to spend one day with you.I do pray Gods protection over you. You have been through so much.We really dont know what trials are, compared to what you go through on a daily basis.An answer to one of my prayers would be to see you and spend one day with you, in my hometown.I have prayed for that for years.God willing,I am coming to Brooklyn soon.A very dear friend of mine,moved to Brooklyn, to join Metro Ministries.Wendy Dawson.Please send her my love. It has been ages.She saw the gift God gave me for children.They are my passion and I would love to be apart of Metro,even if it is for one week.God richly bless you and meet every one of your needs.May he bless you with his perfect peace,love and may he comfort you in the lonely times.May he also heal you in the deep places of your heart.Gwendolyn.

This message is to Bill Wilson. I met you many years ago somewhere around 1988. My husband and I were attending a General Council of the Assemblies of God. I remember noticing how you did not seem to be embraced by the other ministers and tended to be to yourself. I remember seeing you standing alone and I told my husband, I want to meet this man of God because I witnessed a powerful anointing on your life. It was a simple meeting. You were gracious. I walked away moved by the anointed love of the Father that I witnessed from you. I bought a book about your life and have never forgotten. This past week God put you on my heart to pray for you of which I have. I really didn't know what had happened to you all these years, so I searched on the internet. Wow, you have continued to hear the heart of the Father. Thank you for all you have been faithful to. I am not sure why I had to specifically pray for you Bill, but I am. Father in Jesus name I ask you to be ever so close to my brother so that his face can feel your breath. May your tenderness and love for him be new revelation and rama to his spirit. Father, please kick open the stubborn doors and keep your boot there in the way to keep the doors propped open. Then, equip my brother with all that he has need of to accomplish your delight, my Lord. Thank you, our dear Lord and Savior. Amen. May God's richest blessing be yours.

Pastor Bill once gave me an prophetic word, 'remember Lots wife', it would take too much space to expound the natures successive of this word, yet after a troubled time, when I fell away from GODS path, the actuality and precise prophetic content of this word has been borne out.
I now have an attitude that befits a child of the living GOD and back on fire, ( come on JESUS! ), rewatching pastor Bills resources, the realization that the cross had to precede the upper room, before I could trully be of any genuine use to GOD, has tatooed itself in the deepest recess of my conciousness!
Thank you LORD for the time I spent helping pastor Bill and metro ministries!!
May JESUS bless you pastor Bill and metro too.
Hallelluiah! Come on JESUS!

Hi Pastor Bill, I am Flor from Philippines. I was very blessed the first time I heard your story from Pastor Peter of CCF. Tears shed from my eyes while he was telling your life during the preaching. I realized how Great and Powerful our God is and He can always make all things possible when things seems impossible to happen. I pray for you Pastor Bill that you will always continue to reach out to children who are suffering from pain and abandonement and that you may touch their heart like what you have been gone through. To God all be the Glory and Honor forever. Amen.

My home church where I attend (Winter Haven Worship Center) is a great place for truth and the word! My pastor Jeff Connor had the great pleasure of Inviting Pastor Wilson to host an evening service and it was awesome! I too come from NYC and had somewhat of a rough start in life and thank GOd had others in my life (sometimes others than family) give me guidance and lend me a hand in seeking the truth. I just want to say to Pastor Jeff, that he is doing a wonderful thing in helping the less fortunate becasue one day these people can end up becomming the very source that will help the next generation. Much Kudo's and keep up this great work!
