Archbishop William Hudson III serves as the Presiding Prelate of Pilgrim Assemblies International, with spiritual oversight and a sincere commitment to serving God’s people with integrity, care, and faithfulness.

His call to ministry was evident early in life. At the age of three, he began preaching from a picture Bible, and by eight years old he delivered his first public sermon. As his passion for ministry grew, he began holding gatherings in his backyard—efforts that continued until his parents converted their basement into a space capable of hosting church services.
