A gifted evangelist, Jim Holway, along with his wife Kathryn, arrived in Miami, Florida, in the summer of 2005 after having spent six years in Memphis establishing a church among Latinos in the area. Because Miami is such a central location to Latinos in Central and South America, the Holways answered a call from God to minister to them in a much broader way. Jim mentors young Latino and American preachers from South Florida, to Panama to Ecuador and beyond. He holds gospel meetings and seminars to educate the brethren preaching the salvation of Jesus Christ to a lost yet spiritually hungry world. Jim and Kathryn have three adult children. White Station has been in partnership with the Holways since 2002.

Birthdays: William 10/23, Helena 1/3
William and Helene Horace began working with the Providence Church of Christ in Providence, Rhode Island in 2002. This was a need that arose out of Liberian refugees that had come to the United States from the decade-long civil war that was occurring in Liberia. Ron and Louise Burnett had been instrumental in establishing this Liberian church and it was only fitting that a Liberian National was able to move to Providence, be supported by Church of Christ at White Station, and carry on that ministry with those brethren. William and Helene are instrumental in Love Lights the Way orphanage, church, school, and medical clinic mission in Fendell, Liberia, which is also supported by the Blackstone Valley and Fall River Churches in New England. The Horaces have been blessed with 7 children, five of whom are still living.
