Jack W. Williamson

Jack and Liz Williamson were married in 1992 immediately after Jack's graduation and commissioning at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. Upon their assignment to Fort Hood in 1995, they became members of Killeen Bible Church, and they felt an increasing call to missions during their assignment at Fort Hood. They began preparation for missions work in Mexico while still on active duty. This preparation included theological training through Reformed Theological Seminary's virtual campus while Jack completed his military service at Fort Rucker, Alabama 1997-99, practical Christian service at Killeen Bible Church 1999-2000, and then language training at Rio Grande Bible Institute in Edinburgh, Texas 2000-2001. Jack and Liz and their five children (Joshua, Sarah, Hannah, Abigail, and Ruth) then moved to the mission field in Huauchinango, Mexico in September 2001. While in Mexico, Jack completed his Master of Arts in Religion at Reformed Theological Seminary in 2003. While home on furlough in 2006-2007, Jack and his family served Killeen Bible Church in youth ministry, small group ministry, music ministry, evangelism outreach, and adult and youth Sunday School teaching. Feeling God's leading to remain in the States for home ministry, Jack has accepted the position of Director of Discipleship Ministries, continuing to bless the congregation through his service. Jack was appointed to the office of elder at Killeen Bible Church on October 5, 2008.
