Willie J. Smith accepted  Christ as his Lord and Savior at the age of thirteen at the Kindling Altar Baptist Church, Greenville, Mississippi where his father, the late Reverend Walter L. Smith, Jr. was Pastor.  He accepted the call to proclaim the Word of God at the Antioch Baptist Church of Oakland, California in 1973 under the pastoral leadership of The Reverend Robert T. George.  He was ordained there in 1977.

Pastor Smith serves as the senior Pastor of the Calvary Baptist Church Of San Diego, California. He provides  Preaching, Teaching,  Evangelistic-Outreach, Administrative and Pastoral Care ministries full time.


Since  assuming his responsibilities at Calvary in 1994, the congregation has experienced solid growth in love, fellowship and evangelism.  He has instituted Ministerial Training for the “Sons of Calvary”,  two annual Revivals, Foreign Missions, Winter Bible Study and Wednesday Night Discipleship Classes.  Pastor Smith has also traveled internationally on various foreign mission fields.

As a worship leader Pastor Smith believes that the Holy Spirit has the right to alter the order of worship at any time. Being born in the Mississippi delta, he brings the rich heritage of  spiritual spontaneity to relevant focus in the worship experience. Having been educated  within the hallowed halls of Bishop College, Dallas Texas, he is well acquainted with the disciplines and doctrines of  the classic   theologians.

As a preacher......well, you’ll just have to hear him for yourself. He makes the gospel truth so plain that young and old alike see themselves in the text.
