Oh that men would praise the Lord,
for his goodness, and for His wondrous
works to the children of men.
Psalms 107:8

Willie is a regular featured psalmist on TBN (Trinity Broadcasting Network) Houston, Texas and recently was on tour for two weeks in Germany, Switzerland, and France.  As she ministered in song, many people of multi-nations were touched by the Spirit of God.

Willie has a Spirit-filled presence and anointing. Driven by her deep love for God and her passion for ministry, she labors with the understanding of her “purpose” which is to lead the people of God into the realm of worship where the glory of God rests; Hovers; Creating an atmosphere of deliverance where change and intimacy with the Father is inevitable.

Often compared to Shirley Caesar, she gives all the glory to God for the favor and love that continues to surround her, and she treasures the contributions of so many that have sown into her life. The Lord blessed Willie to record and release some of her original material with the Life Tabernacle-Bellfort United Pentecostal Church which is entitled “Today, He’s Moving”. This recording has crossed denominational lines and blessed thousands.

Making her theatrical debut with the Ensemble Theatre in Houston, Texas, she was featured in the front page entertainment section of the Houston Chronicle for her outstanding performance in “Black Nativity” and also for her performance in the off Broadway hit of "Pure Gospel Christmas" for which she was awarded the “Georgie Award” for Best Leading Actress In A Drama Or Musical. Other theatre credits include “Christmas Is Coming Uptown”, and “Praise The Lord, Raise The Roof”. Willie also performs with the Showtime Theatre Company and has been cast for various roles in such plays as “I’m Free”, and “Something About That Name Jesus”.

Willie recorded with the Windsor Village United Methodist Church and the Voices of Hope Community Choir in Houston, Texas.  She tirelessly performs all over the United States and has shared the stage with such artists as Yolanda Adams, Donnie McClurkin, Hanq Neal, Kirk Carr, Fred Hammond, Kim Burrell, John P. Kee, Cedric Ford (of Shekinah Glory Ministry), Betty Ransom Nelson, and Bishop Carlton Pearson.

Willie is the founder of Winds of Praise Ministries. She celebrated her first solo CD debut in June 2005 and is destined to make an undeniable impact on the music industry and the Body of Christ.

“My greatest desire is to usher the people of God into the presence of God where they can receive what they need.”
