A Statement from the Francis Asbury Society Board of Directors

The Board of Directors of the Francis Asbury Society regretfully announces the resignation of our President, Rev. Bill Kierce, effective September 30, 2026. We are grateful for the leadership Bill has provided and the significant ministry expansion that has occurred over the past three years. He is looking forward to semi-retirement and returning to his roots of itinerant ministry in evangelism and church development. We ask God’s richest blessing on Bill and his future ministry.

The mission of the Francis Asbury Society remains: “to spread the message of Scriptural holiness to the ends of the earth in accordance with the Great Commission. […] Whatever is necessary to fulfill our part of this task we will count as our business. To this we commit ourselves and our resources” (Articles of Incorporation, Article II.2.01).

The Board will commence a presidential search process in the near very future.

Jerald H. Walz, PhD Chairman
