In 2012 Rev. Octavious Wilson married the woman of his dreams, Mrs. Elisa J. Wilson. In his spare time he enjoys reading, exercising, and spending time with family. Rev. Wilson inspires to be a beacon of light for this next generation and share the love of God to all he can reach.  

His prayer is that God’s Kingdom will come and His will be done on Earth as it is in heaven.
