Evangelist Dr. Lisa M. Wilson
Lisa is the oldest of four children entrusted to the late Lawrence and Callou Bowden. In 1978 the family moved from Norwalk, Connecticut to Magnolia, Delaware. Little did they know what God had in store for them. In the summer of that same year, the family was introduced to the late Bishop Joseph P. Cooper, Sr. and his loving wife, the late Mother Gloria I. Cooper. Lisa dedicated her life to Jesus Christ at the age of 13 and received the gift of the Holy Ghost the following year. The family joined Emmanuel Pentecostal Church of God on New Year's Eve in 1978. As she matured under the teaching, preaching, love, and encouragement of the leadership, she steadily grew in the Lord. Sister Wilson worked faithfully in the church, serving as an usher, Sunday School teacher, choir member, Scholarship President and Youth President. Lisa was licensed as a Missionary in 2001. She served at Emmanuel Pentecostal Church of God, Inc. for over 30 years under the leadership of the late Bishop Cooper, Sr. and Elder Cooper, Jr.
Under the guidance of her former pastor, Bishop Joseph Cooper, Sr., Missionary Wilson began her second career as a public high school business teacher. After 17 years of classroom teaching, the Lord blessed her to serve as an Education Associate at the Delaware Department of Education where she managed business, finance, and marketing programs. She completed her Doctorate degree in Curriculum, Instruction and Technology from the University of Delaware. After 25 years of state service Dr. Wilson retired. She aspires to write curriculum, establish a Christian education ministry at Existence PCOG, and start a school. Dr. Wilson humbly accepted the call to serve as the First Lady of Existence Pentecostal Church of God. In 2021, Dr. Wilson was ordained as an evangelist. She enjoys serving God’s people with her husband, Pastor Calvin T. Wilson.
Dr. Wilson is a life long learner who enjoys spending time with her family, crafting with her Cricut, and reading. To God be all the glory for the great things He has done.
