Pastor Bill grew up in northern Virginia the son of a pastor and the youngest of four children.  Raised in a family that was deeply committed to following God, he began a real relationship with Jesus Christ in his freshmen year of high school.  It was not long after this that Bill felt God moving in his heart to serve Him full-time.  Upon graduating from high school, he attended Baptist Bible College in Springfield, MO before transferring closer to home to Atlantic Baptist Bible College in Chester, Virginia.  It was while he was there that he met his future wife, Sheila.

Bill and Sheila have been serving together in local church ministry for nearly 30 years.  They have been involved in every aspect of ministry.  Bill has been a worship leader, choir director, youth pastor, young adult pastor, new marrieds pastor, associate pastor, and was the long time principal of a Christian school.  God called him to be the lead pastor at Maple Springs in November of 2018, and upon a unanimous vote from the congregation Bill & Sheila arrived in Seagrove on November 24, 2018.  

Pastor Bill’s vision for Maple Springs is to lead people into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ.  He is passionate about preaching God’s truth, teaching for growth, and loving others in truth and grace.
