Willie Partin, director of camp relations for The Wilds Christian Camp and Conference Center in Brevard, North Carolina, will preach the opening services of Bob Jones University’s spring semester. Services will be held Jan. 9-10, 2024, at 7 p.m. in Founder’s Memorial Amphitorium.
Partin graduated from BJU with a BA in youth ministries in 2003. He earned an MA in biblical counseling from BJU Seminary in December 2023.
Since 1997, Partin has served on staff at The Wilds. He is a certified counselor with the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors and has been actively involved in counseling teens and young adults for decades. Partin’s burden is to pass on the hope that only Christ can give to young people and to help them realize that God does give grace for the Christian life.
Partin and his wife, Sarah, have four children.
“Opening services set the spiritual tone for the semester. Willie’s love for young adults and extensive involvement in ministry with youth and college-aged young people uniquely equips him to encourage and challenge our students as they return to campus,” said BJU Acting CEO Dr. Alan Benson. “I believe his biblical, practical teaching will be a blessing to the student body.”
Both services will be webcast live here.
