Pastor David B. Williams succeeded his father, the late Bishop D. Lawrence Williams, as pastor of Mason Memorial Church of God in Christ in 1971. For over 30 years, Pastor Williams has maintained the foundation of prayer that began this Church over 96 years ago. He has tapped into God's treasure through prayer and without question, takes the action God directs in prayer. He has discovered the power of prayer that defeats the enemy, edifies the believer and overcomes the impossible. Through his prayer and daily communion with God, he has received God's revealed answers. God has imparted to him wisdom to face and champion any obstacle and challenge. He lives by the theme "Faith that can conquer anything".

Pastor Williams', educational background includes a B.A. Degree from Nyack Missionary College, New York. Further Study includes, Urban Studies, Norfolk State University, Norfolk, VA; Pastoral Counseling, Liberty University, Lynchburg, VA and Master of Divinity, Regent University, Virginia Beach, VA.

Pastor Williams is a proven Administrator, Educator and Builder. These abilities and talents are combined to bring to our church and community The Vision - The building of The D. Lawrence Williams Community Education Center. We are confident that, What God has promised, He will perform. (Romans 4:21)
