MEET OUR SENIOR PASTORS

BISHOP RICHARD & PASTOR LAYLA WILLIAMS

Bishop Richard Williams is the founder and senior pastor of Hope City. He began his journey into ministry at a young age, earning a Certificate of Ministry from Full Gospel Bible Institute in Farrell, Pennsylvania, before studying theology and biblical studies at Liberty University.

Before launching Hope City, Bishop Richard and Pastor Layla served together as youth pastors at New Life Church in Lakewood, Ohio. In 2020, they answered the call to pastor and began building a church centered on one clear mission: to bring HOPE to every city.

Bishop Richard and Pastor Layla live in North Olmsted with their children, Olivia, Leah, and Moses.

BEFORE YOU ARRIVE

OUR CAMPUS IS LOCATED DOWN THE HILL.

You may not be able to see the church building from the street. From Dover Center Road, enter through the Conrad’s entrance. From Detroit Road, use the driveway immediately to the right of State Farm.

Continue down the hill, where our Hope City greeters will be waiting with signs to welcome you and direct you to parking and the entrance.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?

Come as you are. Whether you prefer jeans, business casual, or your Sunday best, you are welcome here. We’ve been expecting you.

WHAT ABOUT MY CHILDREN?

Hope City Kids offers a fun, engaging environment where children can learn about Jesus in a way designed for their age. Our team will help your family through the check-in process when you arrive.

WE CAN’T WAIT TO MEET YOU.

Join us this Sunday at 10 AM and experience Hope City for yourself.
