With the spirit of a watchman, Reverend Dr. William F. Pegues is an ordained minister of the Gospel. He is a Bible teacher, preacher, and Kingdom intercessor. Dr. Pegues earned the Bachelor of Arts degree in religion and Philosophy and a Master of Divinity degree from Shaw University in Raleigh, North Carolina. He earned the Doctor of Ministry degree from Hood Theological Seminary in Salisbury, North Carolina. He completed the Clinical Pastoral Education program at Wake Forest Baptist University Medical Center. Reverend Pegues is a newly published Author of the book entitled; “Breaking Free from Unresolved Grief”. He is the founder and former pastor of Hoyt Memorial Christian Methodist Episcopal Church in Burlington, North Carolina. He is also the founder of the Sowing the Seed Ministry, a year-long class where other disciples called to preach study and learn the process of sermon preparation and delivery.
With the assistance from many anointed leaders in the Body of Christ, he was saved in 1990 and grew in his relationship with the Lord. William was delivered from his own addictive behaviors and strongholds. This deliverance and intimate relationship is the basis for the passion he’s given to create a thirst for Him in others, whenever he preaches and throughout life. He has compassion, passion, and anointing to minister to broken vessels.
Dr. Pegues is married to the lovely Dorothy W. Pegues, also an ordained minister who works with him and supports his ministry wholeheartedly. To this union, they were blessed with two daughters, Kendra M. & Keosha C. Pegues, four grandchildren, Kamaurie McKenzie Woodley-Pegues, Jordan Jermaine Peguese, and Kennedi Leigh Pegues, and Kendrin O’Brian Pegues-Robbins. They are the godparents of a nephew, who lives in the Pegues household and are blessed to call him a son, Thomas Kordell Quick.
After going through many battles and experience deliverance and victory, Reverend Dr. Pegues seeks to live a life of integrity with the Father. A servant-leader, his desire is to usher in God’s presence where deliverance occurs, teach an eternal perspective on the Christian life and rise up spiritual warriors for the end times.
Now, therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep my covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine. ~Exodus 19:5
~”Where we are empowering others through preaching and teaching under the anointing of God, to live and leave a legacy for life.” ~Reverend Dr. W. Frazier Pegues

AFFIRMATION OF FAITH
I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth: And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, Our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried, the third day he rose from the dead, he ascended into heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.
The Invocation……………………………………………….
Almighty God, our Heavenly Father, who of Thy great mercy has promised forgiveness of sins to all them that with hearty repentance and true faith turn to Thee, have mercy upon us; pardon and deliver us from all our sins, confirm and strengthen us in all goodness, and bring us to everlasting life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Collect………………………………………………………….Congregation

†The Prayer of Confession………………………………
Almighty God, Father of our Lord, Jesus Christ, maker of all things, judge of all men, we acknowledge and bewail our manifold sins and wickedness, which we from time to time most grievously have committed, by thought, word, and deed, against thy Divine Majesty, provoking most justly Thy wrath and indignation against us. We do earnestly repent, and are heartily sorry for these our misdoings, the remembrance of them is grievous unto us. Have mercy upon us, have mercy upon us most merciful Father; for Thy Son, our Lord, Jesus Christ’s sake, forgive us all that is past, and grant that we may hereafter serve and please Thee in the newness of life, to the honor and glory of Thy name, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

The Prayer of Humble Access………………….…..
We do not presume to come to this Thy Table, O merciful Lord trusting in our own righteousness, but in Thy manifold and great mercies.

Amen.

Almighty God, our Heavenly Father, who of Thy tender mercy didst give thine only son Jesus Christ, to suffer death upon the cross for our redemption, who made thee (by His oblation of Himself once offered) a full, perfect, and sufficient sacrifice, oblation, and satisfaction for the sins of the whole world; and did institute, and in His holy gospel commanded us to continue a perpetual memory of that His precious death until His coming again; hear us, O merciful Father, we most humbly beseech Thee and grant that we, receiving these Thy creatures of bread and wine, according to Thy son our Savior Jesus Christ’s holy institution, in remembrance His death and passion, may be partakers of His most blessed body and blood; who in the same night that He was betrayed, took bread; and when He had given thanks, He broke it, and gave it to His disciples saying, “Take eat; this is My body which is given for you; Do this in remembrance of Me”. Likewise, after supper He took the cup; and when He had given thanks, He gave it to them saying, “Drink ye all of this; for this is My blood of the New Testament, which is shed for you and for many, for the remission of sins, do this as often as ye drink it, in remembrance of Me.” Amen.
