Bill was an encouragement to me when I was in Bible college and I was young and undisciplined and he patiently mentored me and put up with me! I have been pastoring ever since for almost 45 years and I give Bill a lot of the credit for not giving up on me! God bless your life well lived and God bless Pat and your precious family.

I remember Bill as my playmate because I was his sister and only two years younger . He enjoyed teasing me, playing catch with me even though I was afraid of the ball, and sledding .
He committed he life to Christ and his family and lived a life in service to them.
We love him and will see him again in heaven.
To be absent from this life is to be in the presence of the Lord! "I can only imagine...'
Sister Pentecost, condolences to you and family. I’m so sorry. Always remember you and family as you minister to many in Jamaica. God be with you and family and give you comfort.

He wasn’t just a father-in-law, he was a 2nd Dad to me and a wonderful Grandpa to our children. He loved us all unconditionally and was always there for us. He was comical and loving. He was a strong man of God and knew and walked in the Word. He was always kind and spoke his mind. He will be missed tremendously. I still can’t believe he’s gone.
Fond memories of this great man of God and his lovely wife Pat and their dear children. Bill had been a Godsend for my wife and I while we were at Beyond The Reef in the eighties. THERE ARE GIANTS IN THE LAND, one of his great sermons, is still ringing in my ears after all these years. It had a bearing on my life. I thank God for you brother. And our heartfelt condolences to Pat and the boys and their families.

So sorry to hear this! Haven't seen him since childhood. Went to church together and were friends. So glad to know he spent his life serving God! Seen his sister Starla not to long ago. Prayers for his family to have peace and comfort.

'Pastor Pentecost ' as fondly called by us at Stone's Hope, Jamaica, where you came in answer to the call of God, and shared your life, your love and the love of your beautiful family, and your great knowledge of the Word with us, it is with great sadness that we say ...'see you later parson' as you leave to receive your heavenly reward.
Thank you for your great service to us which was very instrumental to our spiritual growth. You and your beautiful family blending into our Jamaican culture so readily and adopting our " no problem man" attitude making it easy for us to reach out to you not just for Spiritual guidance but for any matter that needed wise counseling.
We sincerely appreciate your love for God, your service to His kingdom, and we look forward to reuniting with you in heaven someday.
From
THE STONE'S HOPE JAMAICA CREW.
Ed & Bill were blessed to have several years working together in jail & prison ministry & now they’re reaping their benefits 🙏🏻❤️
