STAN AND JESSICA WILLIAMS
Music Minister
Jessica realized the love and gift of music as a young girl. As a teenager, she joined the Fred Williams Family, and eventually married their son, Stan. They enjoyed traveling in the family ministry for many years. As the family started growing, they made the decision to stop traveling and start ministering in their local church. Since that time, the Lord has opened doors of opportunity for Jessica and Stan to serve on staff at several different churches. The extended family, The Williams Family, all enjoy every opportunity to minister together. Stan and Jessica have three sons, all of whom are married and involved in ministry, and three grandsons (one of them who is in heaven).
