For
I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are
not worthy to be compared to the glory which shall be
revealed in us. Romans 8:18
The foundation was laid by the Word of God. God said "let there be Solid Rock Pentecostal Church of
Christ, Disciples of Christ" and the late Bishop
James A. Winslow, Sr. built and established it and set
forth the ministry that God had ordained in him for
his season. The late Mother Gloria B. Winslow-Thrower
nurtured it and carried forth the ministry that God
had ordained for her season.
On August 1, 2004 God birthed "POWER
HOUSE WORLD MINISTRIES" in its due season
through the person of Bishop James A. Winslow, Jr.,
a preacher called to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ.
It is a ministry of healing wounded souls, proclaiming
liberty to the captives in the acceptable year of our
Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The evidence of this ministry
is shown through the workings of the Holy Spirit and
gifts of the five fold ministry. Also, the spiritual
growth in the lives of the members and the birth of
new and diverse ministries.
Bishop James A. Winslow, Jr., a community leader, fair
and honest business man, a positive leader who holds
the interest of the people in high regard. His vision
is to build a church that will serve the community and

to ministries that will meet the needs of the members
as well as the surrounding communities. He has established
such ministries as "Boys in the Neighborhood" in 1987, a boys club was designed to teach the Gospel
by being a positive roll model. American Youth on the
Move is the youth movement within Solid Rock. Part of
the vision includes the building of a youth center,
a live broadcast studio for radio and television, a
Christian book store, a homeless shelter, a shelter
