Devastating Loss: Dr. Bill Winston Grieves the Passing of His Beloved Wife, Veronica Winston
In an emotional and deeply saddening moment for the global Christian community, Dr. Bill Winston is mourning the heartbreaking loss of his beloved wife, Pastor Veronica Winston. A pillar of strength, faith, and grace, Veronica was not just the First Lady of Living Word Christian Center, but also a spiritual mother, mentor, and friend to countless people whose lives she touched across the world. Her passing has left an indescribable void in the hearts of her family, congregation, and all those who knew her.
Pastor Veronica was more than a partner in ministry to Dr. Bill Winston—she was his closest confidante, his prayer warrior, and his unwavering support through decades of teaching, preaching, and serving in God’s kingdom. Their love story was not only inspiring, but a testimony of unity in purpose and passion for God’s work. Together, they built not just a ministry, but a legacy rooted in faith, excellence, and transformation.
From the very beginning of Living Word Christian Center, Veronica stood by Bill Winston, encouraging and empowering women and families through her own anointed teachings. Her words were seasoned with wisdom, and her presence carried a calm strength that many drew from in times of need. She was often seen behind the scenes, pouring love into others, always speaking life and truth with compassion. Whether on stage or in quiet moments, her faith in God was unshakeable.
Her impact stretched beyond the pulpit. Through her books, prayer groups, and women’s ministry, Veronica helped nurture spiritual growth in countless believers. She taught women how to walk in their divine purpose, how to love with grace, and how to lead with humility. She was a woman who prayed fiercely, loved deeply, and lived intentionally.
News of her passing has left many in tears, but it has also stirred memories of her radiant smile, her gentle voice, and the powerful way she ministered to people. Tributes have poured in from leaders and believers across the globe—each one echoing the same sentiment: Pastor Veronica was truly one of a kind. A jewel in the kingdom. A woman who walked with God.
For Dr. Bill Winston, the pain of this loss is profound. To lose a partner of so many years—one who stood by him through every triumph and trial—is a sorrow only God’s comfort can soothe. And yet, even in this moment of grief, his heart remains anchored in faith, trusting that God’s promises are true and that he will one day be reunited with his beloved in glory.
While our hearts ache at this loss, we also choose to celebrate the life Pastor Veronica lived. A life that pointed to Christ. A life of devotion, compassion, and unshakable faith. Her legacy will not fade, because the seeds she planted in hearts around the world continue to bear fruit.
As we remember her, let us hold Dr. Bill Winston and the entire Winston family in our prayers. Let us thank God for the gift that Veronica was—and will always be—to the body of Christ. And let us honor her memory by living out the values she embodied: faith, love, grace, and perseverance.
Heaven has welcomed a true woman of God, but earth will forever feel the absence of her presence.
May Pastor Veronica Winston rest peacefully in the arms of the Savior she so faithfully served.
