Williams Chapel Missionary Baptist Church, the church where everybody is somebody and Jesus Christ is Lord. The church began as Alpha Monumental in a little building next to the railroad track on the west side of North Street (now Merritt Street). Ford was the pastor and the congregation consisted of members of the Doe, Epps, Roux, Battles, and Watkins families. Services were held on the first and

third Sundays. Ford left to pastor in Orlando, the congregation called Rev. Blonts as pastor. Recognizing the need for a larger sanctuary, the congregation started building on the corner of Williams and Marker Streets. When the building was completed members marched to the site, singing along the way, to begin service in the new building. The congregation called their new church Williams Chapel. The late Rev. B.T. Williams was the pastor. Under Pastor Williams’ leadership, the church became a member of the New Central Association and continued to grow in his 26 years of leadership. After Williams' departure, the church was without a pastor for approximately six months with the Missionary being in charge. E.E. Williams was called and remained for a little over three years. The congregation then called Rev. A.D. Raines and it was under his leadership that construction on the present building was started. Service was still held as the building was constructed around the old one. When the building process was at a point when service could not be held on site, service was held at St. John. Raines left before the new building was completed and Rev. E.R. Rucker was called to pastor. Rucker remained for several years. After Rucker left, Rev. Matthew Wilson was called. Under Wilson’s leadership the church building was completed and dedicated as the church motto became “The Church Were Everybody is Somebody.” Wilson’s departure brought a split in the congregation as some members left with him and started Peaceful Zion. The church was without a pastor for several months before calling Rev. L. Washington Sr. as shepherd. Under Washington’s Leadership the church became incorporated and the phrase “and Jesus Christ is Lord!” was added to the church motto. The church continues to grow spiritually in the knowledge of Jesus Christ. The church body has had many challenges in the century of its existence. Through it all, God has sustained and kept us in the midst of them all.

Earlier this month, members of the Board of the Christian Scholars of Tomorrow Scholarship Fund, Inc. (CSOTSF, Inc.) had the distinct honor and privilege of recognizing two remarkable young women from our church family — Sis. Jamiyah Simpson and Sis. Ayana Mitchell. Both young ladies are proud 2026 graduates of Seminole High School and have already taken the next exciting step in their educational journeys. We are blessed to celebrate that both are now enrolled at Bethune-Cookman University!

As a church family, we believe that when we invest in our young people, we are investing in the future God has entrusted to us. We are committed to encouraging, equipping, and empowering the next generation to pursue excellence while walking boldly in their God-given purpose.

In keeping with the vision of our leader and our continued commitment to the youth of our church, every 5th Sunday is designated as Scholarship Day. On these special Sundays, all general offerings received are donated to the Christian Scholars of Tomorrow Scholarship Fund, Inc. Through the generosity of our church family, we help provide meaningful support for students pursuing higher education.

What we sow today can become the foundation for someone's tomorrow.

To Sis. Jamiyah Simpson who is a Chapel baby from birth, and Sis. Ayana Mitchell who recently joined our Chapel Family— congratulations on this incredible accomplishment! May God continue to order your steps, expand your vision, strengthen your faith, and bless you abundantly as you begin this next chapter.

Your church family is proud of you, believes in you, and is praying for you! ❤️🙏🏽
