Greetings Greater Providence,

It is with great joy that I begin my journey here at Greater Providence serving as your Pastor. Over the past two years, my prayer has been for God to navigate my steps to a loving church family in the Dallas area where I could serve the kingdom in a pastoral capacity. Look at God! Not only has He answered my prayers, I could not have imagined Him blessing me with such a loving group of believers. Together, we have chosen each other, and as we strive to fulfill the mission of Jesus Christ, we will learn to form a relationship that will enable us to be open to the Holy Spirit’s leading in all things.

God has great things in store for us, and over the next 90 days, it is my desire to get to know each and every man, woman, boy, and girl who calls Greater Providence their church home. I look forward to serving you and walking next to you in this amazing journey God has divinely put before us. My wife, Tarsha, is also committed to this journey and I honor her for being an unbelievable support to me.

​The Apostle Paul prayed these words for the believers in Ephesus: “I, therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace” (Ephesians 4:1-3). It is my prayer that God would fill Greater Providence with His spirit of love and unity that will stir our hearts to be salt and light during this pivotal point in world history. 

Get ready Greater Providence, because the best is yet to come!

With so much love and blessings,

Walter R. Gibson, Jr.
