Born March 2, 1944 to Rev. and Mrs. James L. Watson, ministers in the Church of God. I was raised to know the doctrines of the church and accepted Christ at an early age.
         Before going into the ministry I served as Youth Director, Sunday School Teacher, Choir Director and Etc. in the First Church of God, Christiansburg, Virginia. I accepted God's call to the ministry in 1972. For two years I filled the pulpit for pastors in VA and West VA when they had to be away for meetings and vacations. I accepted my first pastorate in 1974 and was licensed in 1975. I was ordained in 1977 by the Ministerial Association in Virginia.
         I married Lynda Necessary on March 21, 1964. We have two daughters, one son and four granddaughters. My wife has worked by my side in all our ministry. She has worked outside the home as a Receptionist, Legal Secretary and in the Correctional system in Virginia to help financially. In the Church she has been Sunday School Teacher, Youth Director, Children's Church Director, Choir Director and served on many different Boards and Committees.
        Together we have been ministering with the church here in Summerville for the last ten years. During this time we have lead the church in building a new sanctuary that will seat three hundred. 
       We are praying that we will see people come to know the lord in a personal way and are working to see them grow in the knowledge and love of our savior Jesus Christ. 
       Our mission statement/purpose/goal for the church is "TO SAVE THE LOST AT ANY CO$T!" Colossians 3:15 states (NIV) "Let the peace 
of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful." We try to carry out our mission through the PEACE of Chris

 IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE A PART OF THIS MISSION PLEASE COME AND WORK WITH US HERE AT FIRST CHURCH OF GOD, SUMMERVILLE, SC.
