About Our Pastor
Elder William E. McMillan, Jr. is saved, sanctified, and filled with the precious gift of the HOLY GHOST. On July 11, 1979 after many trails, tribulations, and close encounters with death Elder McMillan realized he had been chosen to do a work for GOD, and for the past 28 years he has pursed the calling on his life in the service of the LORD. He served as the Jurisdictional Youth President Greater Maryland First Jurisdiction. He currently serves as chairman of the Pastor’s and Elders council of Greater Maryland First Jurisdiction.
In August, 2007 he begin a ministry in Western Maryland. He is the Pastor and Founder of Rehoboth Ministries Church Of God In Christ located in Lisbon, Maryland. He lives his life as an example for all to know CHRIST is the answer to overcome all things. As Pastor, teacher, and mentor, he believes it is his responsibility as a leader in the body of believers to prepare servants of the LORD: to love God, their families and to trust in the principles of the Bible, to believe in the necessity of the filling of the HOLY GHOST, and to live a life that is pleasing and acceptable to our LORD and SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST. He emphasizes the urgency to lead and position ourselves toward the battle and not withdraw, nor reflect the blending as a chameleon. We are the head and not the tail, we are above and not beneath, for by the power of GOD we can run through troops and leap over walls. Therefore, we shall go into the hedges and bi-ways and compel others to come to the fountain and drink of the living water and thirst no more.
In July, 2006 Elder McMillan was appointed as Chairman of the Jurisdictional Presidents for the International Youth Department, by the International Youth President, Superintendent Michael E. Hill, Sr. He understands the demand is more needed than every for a continued focus on salvation for our young people to seek the LORD and live a HOLY GHOST filled life. He believes in the speaking in tongues, fasting, praying, and encourages and promotes our young boys to stand up and be “Young Men of Valor” and our young girls to come forth and be “Young Women of Excellence”. He inspires all to remember the days of our youth and the mercies of GOD and seek an understanding for knowledge to lead the youth of today to be an anointed leader of GOD.
Elder McMillan has first-hand knowledge of the challenges facing the family in the 21st Century. He was married to the late Brenda Mae McMillan, and the LORD blessed their union by adding to them two daughters Kimberli Harkless, Julia McMillan, and one son William E. McMillan, III; one son-in-law; Darnell Harkless, two grandsons, Darnell Jr., Derek and one granddaughter Aria’ Jolie.
As a young child he was taught to love his family, but more importantly to love GOD. He was born in Baltimore, Maryland to the late William E. McMillan, Sr. and Mother Fannie McMillan. He is the sibling of three brothers: Michael (deceased), Tyrone and Howard and two sisters Carlillian and Kathleen.
Professionally, he is the Chief of Police for the Maryland State Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation Police Force, and Chaplain of Fraternal Order of Police Lodge #37, National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Officers, and several other organizations designed to promote safety and protect the citizens in the state of Maryland and the United States of America.
Our Statement of Faith
We believe the Bible to be the inspired and only infallible written Word of God. We believe that there is One God, eternally existent in Three Persons; God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
We believe in the Blessed Hope, which is the rapture of the Church of God, which is in Christ, at His return.
We believe that the only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance, faith in the precious Blood of Jesus Christ, and baptism in water. We believe that regeneration by the Holy Ghost is absolutely essential for personal salvation.
We believe that the redemptive work of Christ on the cross provides healing for the human body in answer to believing prayer.
We believe that the baptism in the Holy Ghost, according to Acts 2:4 is given to believers who ask for it.
We believe in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit, by Whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a holy and separated life in this present world.
Amen
The devastation in Haiti for most of us is incomprehensible, however the Church Of God In Christ International Missions Department responded immediately and mobilized a group to travel and assist in the relief efforts.
Bishop Carlis L. Moody, Sr., President of the International Department of Missions has within his local congregation of Faith Temple in Evanston, Illinois more than 11 nationalities. Many of these saints are from the Caribbean Islands. Blessed with people who love God and desire to serve, several of the saints headed to Haiti to assist Bishop Lopez Dautruche, the Jurisdictional Prelate of Haiti.
The group was led by Elder Marx Succes. Elder Succes is one of the leaders of the outreach ministry, Youth On A Mission. Youth On A Mission is a summer program founded by Bishop Moody in 1979 to encourage the Youth of the Church Of God In Christ to get involved in mission work. The ministry is very successful, and for more that 30 years the young and old have traveled to countries to minister. The team provides medical assistance, builds churches and conducts evangelistic crusades.
Elder Succes who is Haitian, was given a leave of absence from his employer, the Department of Education in Illinois and went to Haiti just a few days after the earthquake. He was in Haiti for almost one month. Because Haiti is his home, his knowledge is invaluable. Funds given to Bishop Dautruche by the Church Of God In Christ were used to purchase food, supplies, and given to the pastors of the Church Of God In Christ.
Steps to Salvation
1. ACKNOWLEDGE: For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). God be merciful to me a sinner (Luke 18:13). You must acknowledge in the light of Gods Word that you are a sinner.
2. REPENT: Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish (Luke 13:3). Repent, therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out (Acts 3:19). You must see the awfulness of sin and then repent of it.
3. CONFESS: If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation (Romans 10:10). Confess not to men, but to God.
4. FORSAKE: Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return to the Lord for he will abundantly pardon (Isaiah 55:7). Sorrow for sin is important, but we must want to be done with it once and for all.
5. BELIEVE: For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life (John 3:16). If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved (Romans 10:9). Believe in the finished work of Christ on the cross, and in His resurrection.
6. RECEIVED: He came unto His own, and His own received Him not. But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name (John 1:11-12). Christ must be received personally into your hearts by faith, if the experience of the New Birth is to be yours.
If you would like to begin a personal relationship with Jesus today,
please pray this prayer:
Lord Jesus, I invite You into my life.
I believe You died for me and that Your
blood pays for my sin and provides me
with the gift of eternal life. By faith I
received that gift, and I acknowledge You
as my Lord and Savior. Amen
WELCOME TO THE FAMILY OF GOD!
The Lord hath made room for us, and we shall fruitful in the Land....Gen. 26:22
