"Therefore as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the Household of Faith."


Galatians 6:10

Household of Faith Church, Inc established December 20, 1989

 

Household of Faith Church Inc. — A Legacy of Faith, Service, and Community Empowerment

 
Household of Faith Church Inc. has grown from a small living-room congregation into one of Jacksonville’s leading faith-based institutions. What began with just five dedicated members under the spiritual leadership of Bishop Lewis Williams and Dr. Bernadette Williams has now become a thriving, ministry with hundreds of active members and a reputation for both spiritual depth and community transformation.  


Founded on December 20, 1989, Household of Faith Church Inc. has stood as a spiritual beacon and community stronghold in Jacksonville, Florida for over three decades. What began as a modest vision from Bishop Lewis Williams and Dr. Bernadette Williams has since evolved into a thriving ministry located at 1410 Edgewood Avenue West, in the heart of Jacksonville’s Northside, specifically within the Lake Forest community, just miles from the historic Trout River.

From its inception, the church’s mission has been deeply rooted in Galatians 6:10 — “Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.” This verse continues to guide the ministry’s actions, influence, and outreach.

Under the steadfast leadership of Bishop Williams, Senior Pastor, and Dr. Bernadette Williams, Assistant Pastor, Household of Faith Church has launched and sustained more than 40 programs and Christian education classes designed to uplift, empower, and support both congregation members and the surrounding community. These programs reflect the church’s commitment to spiritual growth and practical service, addressing needs in education, youth development, senior care, reentry support, and family stability.

Now approaching its 35th year, Household of Faith remains a pillar of strength and progress on the Northside. Known for offering a hybrid worship experience that blends traditional African-American church culture with contemporary gospel expression, the church continues to attract and inspire multiple generations of worshippers.

The church’s ministry is not confined to its walls. Household of Faith has impacted lives globally, with evangelistic and missionary ties reaching as far as Brazil and the Philippines. Locally, the church has been actively engaged with nursing homes, shelters, prisons, and reentry programs, providing both spiritual support and tangible resources.

Strategically situated in Jacksonville’s District 8, Household of Faith has forged a strong civic partnership with its City Council Member Ju’Coby Pittman, aligning faith-based service with community development. The church owns property in the Lake Forest neighborhood, positioning it as a cornerstone institution in one of Jacksonville’s most historic communities.

Today, Household of Faith Church Inc. stands as a testament to sustained vision, relentless faith, and transformative action. As it enters a new era of ministry and outreach, the church remains committed to serving with integrity, expanding its impact, and honoring the legacy of service started in 1989.

“Home Again: Ribbon Cutting with Blessings from Bishop Vaughn & Lady Narlene McLaughlin

   We believe that the Church flourishes when it walks in faithful obedience to the Word of God. As we submit to His truth, we are transformed, unified, and empowered to fulfill His mission. Scripture reminds us, “If you fully obey the Lord your God and carefully follow all his commands... the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations on earth” (Deuteronomy 28:1). Just as the early church grew through devotion to the apostles’ teaching and fellowship, so too do we grow—spiritually and in number—when we live out His Word (Acts 2:42, 47).


Bishop: Bold faith, Consecrated purpose.

    Rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated
