A Celebration of Life service for Rev. William J. Powell, 67, who entered into rest on Saturday, December 11, 2020, will be held in June (Due to the recent increase in Covid-19) and will be formally announced. Brown-Pennington-Atkins Funeral Directors are caring for the family. Pastor William Powell was a very special and unique person. He was one of a kind. He loved to go fishing, but what he enjoyed doing the most was teaching the Word of God. He loved people and loved telling others about God. He was not ashamed of it but proud of it. He was an avid student of the Word of God. He was always studying and reading because of his love for the Lord. His trust, faith, and confidence in the Lord was unwavering. He was faithful to the very end. He was a bold and strong individual in all areas of his life. He loved to laugh and have a good time. He was the pastor of New Life Ministries for about twelve years, although he was in the ministry for more than forty-five years. He was an amazing, kind, and loving person who inspired many. Even though he has gone to be with the Lord, his visions for the ministry will continue. He is survived by his loving wife, Nancy Rangel Powell of Hartsville, SC; son, Kenneth (Susan) Powell of Jacksonville, FL; sister, Sarah Campbell, Kathy Albury, both of Tampa, FL; grandchildren, Madeline Anne Powell, Good morning, Anna Belle Powell both of Atlanta, GA.
