“This book is a powerful story and teaching that relates with so many today who’ve gone through devastating life experiences. Bill, a businessman and Marine veteran, starts the book writing about his divorce, his drinking, and his efforts to fix his life. He shares about disappointments and finally finding the meaning for life. I’ve known Bill and his wife, Pam, for years and I’ve watched God rebuild their lives and take them forward. Bill learned how to recognize God’s voice and follow His lead. There will always be distractions along the way. It is our choice to make the best of life by staying focused on God’s Word, His Holy Spirit’s direction, and our relationship with Jesus as number one.”

—Pastor Sharon Daugherty. Co-founder of Victory Christian Center, Tulsa, OK

The Cause...

Defenders of The Fatherless...

Pastors Bill and Pam are passionate about touching the lives of children who have been orphaned by war, disease or famine, and desire to see these children come to know the love of Jesus and find healing in His name.  They believe these children can and will become leaders in their nation changing, impacting and empowering lives for Jesus.


He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow, and loves the foreigner residing among you, giving them food and clothing.  Deuteronomy 10:18


I will not leave you orphans.  I will come to you.  John 14:18

Joy Comes in Knowing

You Are Doing

What God Has Called You To...

The embrace of a father brings peace and comfort to the one being held.  This child in Yei, South Sudan, was eager to crawl up on Pastor Bill's lap, and joy was shared by both.  


There is no greater joy than knowing you are in the center of God's will, doing what He has called you to do.  Some are called to go, and some are given the privilege to sow...thus joy may be shared by those whose hearts are so touched and choose to partner with Victory World Outreach to ensure the fulfillment of the vision...that orphaned children find comfort in knowing that someone is caring for their needs--realizing they are not alone.
