Majors Bill and Stephanie Mockabee

Majors Bill and Stephanie Mockabee were ordained as Officers in The Salvation Army, after being commissioned in 2005 as part of the Preparers Of The Way Session. In their 15 years of ministry, they have served as Corps Officers in Florence, Alabama and Laurel, Mississippi. They have spent the last 9 years serving as Divisional Youth Secretaries, overseeing the youth ministries in the Kentucky-Tennessee Division and the Texas Division. Seeing young people living out their faith and the many kids who made decisions to follow Christ at Camp Paradise Valley and Camp Hoblitzelle was the highlight of their nine years in the Youth Department.

Though the Youth has been a focus for their last two appointments, they are absolutely thrilled to have been given another opportunityto get back to the “field” and serve the people of Central Arkansas. They feel like their time on Divisional Headquarters has helped prepare them to be better Officers and more effective leaders in the communities in which they serve. Majors Mockabee have been married for 24 years. They have three children of whom they are very proud of. Their daughter, Payton, and two sons, William and Christian.
