MEET OUR PASTORS
​
SENIOR
PASTOR
ELLIOTT
While attending his grandparents’ 50th wedding anniversary celebration, the call of God rose profusely in Pastor Elliott Jones’ heart and he received God’s call to ministry. During that celebration on September 28, 1988, God told Pastor Jones to look at the Jones family assembled at the gathering and reflect on how great it was for everyone to be in harmony celebrating their union as one family. As Pastor Jones began to meditate on that thought, God reminded him on how good it would be for God’s family to be in harmony and told Pastor Jones to “Get My Family Back…Help Me Get My Family Back!”
​
With that burning desire placed on his heart by the Lord, Elliott Jones began to desire to “Get God’s Family Back!” In 1988, he attended a large Church of God in Christ congregation where he faithfully served as a brother, deacon, and later as a minister. He was appointed Youth Pastor in 1990 and he faithfully ministered to children for 9 ½ years. In 1997, Pastor Jones graduated from the Interdenominational Theological Seminary in Atlanta, Georgia with a Certificate in Theology.
​
As the call of God began to increase on his life, God talked with Pastor Jones and told him to “Launch out to the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” In 2000, Pastor Jones and his wife Pastor Belinda Jones started “Walking in the Spirit Ministries, Inc.” (WITS) and began to hold weekly Bible studies at the Ramada Inn in downtown Milwaukee. Over the next four years, the number of WITS members grew from 6 to over 500. Walking in the Spirit Ministries grew into a powerful ministry as Pastor Jones taught and declared God’s word; “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free!”
​
God has put a burning desire in Pastor Elliott to “Get His Family Back!” Pastor Jones’ goal is to follow God’s mandate to bring people back into the awareness of who they are in Christ Jesus and to walk in love, peace, prosperity, joy, and happiness. Pastor Jones is determined that God’s family will know that they’ve been redeemed from sin, poverty, sickness, fear, lack, doubt, and unbelief.
​
Pastor Jones preaches the unadulterated word of God. He makes it easy to understand and shows you clearly how to apply it to your life on a daily basis. He lives a life that is fully representative of his relationship with God.
Pastor Belinda Jones' primary responsibility as a Teacher and Pastor is to love and equip God's people to finish Christ's work and build up his church, the body of Christ. Her goal is to meet this responsibility until all come to unity in the faith and knowledge of God's Son, mature and abundantly grow in the Lord, and measure up to the full stature of Christ. Pastor Belinda believes that when we will no longer be like children, forever changing our minds about what we believe because someone has cleverly lied to us and make the lie sound like the truth. Instead, we will hold to God's truth in love, becoming more and more in every way like Christ who is the head of his body, the church. Under his direction, the whole body is fitted together perfectly. As each part does its own special work, it helps the other parts grow, so that the whole body is healthy, growing and full of love in Christ.
​
Pastor's Belinda's mission is to assist the empowerment of the body of Christ to walk in the anointing and authority Christ our savior had died to give us. She and her husband, Pastor Elliott Jones, consider themselves as rehabbers, i.e. they enjoy building up property that society has deemed worthless and making it new again. Just as we look at housing so do we look at God's people, i.e. we desire to build them up as well, in the Lord.
​
Pastor Belinda spent most of her childhood and adult life in the Church of God In Christ. God called her to teach at a young age and her first teaching experience was as a teenager in her church's Sunday School. After attending the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee, where she majored in Child Psychology and Communications, she owned her own childcare business. Even later, Pastor Belinda assisted her husband Elliott as Youth Pastor for 10 years. After teaching for many years, the Lord called Pastor Belinda and Pastor Elliott to start Walking In The Spirit Ministries, The Teaching Ministries of Elliott and Belinda Jones. After being called to this ministry the Lord led Pastor Belinda to facilitate God's Daughters, a Christian women's group that educates women on their authority and covenants with God, and to head the Youth and Children's Ministry of Walking In The Spirit.
