Elder Joseph Weyel
Joseph Weyel is a lifelong resident of San Antonio and Bexar County, Texas. He was brought up in Eastside Primitive Baptist Church (later Bethany Primitive Baptist Church) and was made to trust in Jesus Christ a the age of 6-years-old.
Joseph's relationship with Jesus began when at the age of 5 he experienced the loss of his older brother to cancer. Through a number of experiences God manifested His sovereignty and love in ways that reached the heart and mind of a small child long before the preached word had meaning.
In the summer of 1985, the gospel became meaningful as Joseph received for the first time the preached word in a message entitled, "He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good." From that time, the preaching of the gospel and congregational worship became dear to Joseph. In 1986, upon profession of faith, he followed the Lord in baptism .
Joseph began exercising in the ministry in 1991, and was ordained to the gospel ministry at Bethany Primitive Baptist Church in September of 2003. Since that time, he has been engaged in preaching the gospel in San Antonio and the surrounding area assisting pastors and congregations in need. Joseph's desire is to present the life changing truth that he has experienced in a fresh and meaningful way through Spirit directed preaching and Christian ministry.
In November of 1999, Joseph was blessed to be united in marriage to Rachel. Together they have received the blessing of 4 children, Beth, Emily, Jeremiah, and William. They are committed to bringing up their children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord while setting an example of love and family devotion which will honor Jesus Christ.
