Rev. Dr. Jules Williams Jr.

Open Arms UCC is blessed by the pastoral leadership in the dynamic person of The Rev. Dr, ,Jules Williams. , planning to locate north of Houston in the Spring/Woodlands area.  While Open Arms is currently looking for a permanent worship center, it is presently worshipping at The Tamina Community Center at 10:30 A.M. on Sunday mornings.  Open Arms welcomes everyone into its body of believers.

Enriching this community, Rev. Dr. Williams Jr. brings with him a volume of impressive credentials.  He began his journey as a Christian servant in his home church in Beaumont, Texas. He served several churches in the Gulf Coast-East Texas area as congregational leader, preacher, and counselor. From 2014 to 2017, Williams counseled with groups, focusing on issues related to drug addiction.  Since 2018, Rev. Jules has been employed as a Transition Specialist by the Windham School District located inside all Texas prisons. Here he practices his skills in management, in training personnel, and in counseling. 

 In the midst of his service to others, Rev. Jules has earned degrees from Dallas Theological Seminary, Houston College of Biblical Studies, Morehouse College in Atlanta, and recently received his Doctorate of Ministry at Eden Theological Seminary.  

Rev. Williams’ background, counseling experience, and formal education have armed him with the power to identify with others, both in his sermons and in his personal interactions.  He is anxious to be available to anyone who could benefit from his presence, prayer, Bible reading and consultation.  Please join with us on Facebook or YouTube on Sunday mornings and meet our wonderful group.  “No matter who you are, no matter where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome at Open Arms.”
