Under their
leadership, many souls were saved and many miracles were witnessed. After Elder
Vick's passing, Bishop Eleazar Lenox appointed Elder W.M. Miller as pastor in
May of 1963. Pastor Miller immediately began the physical restoration of the
sanctuary, as well as the spiritual restoration of the Saints.
Inspired by the Holy Ghost, Pastor Miller changed the church’s name to “Zion
Temple “in 1969. Upon his death, Bishop John I. Cobb appointed Elder Stephen
Robinson, Sr. as pastor, in 1996. Pastor Robinson, a holy man, full of power and
faith, served Zion Temple faithfully, for many years. He continued to serve as
Pastor Emeritus, under the leadership of his son, Pastor Stephen M. Robinson, Jr.
until the time of his heavenly departure.
Pastor Stephen M. Robinson, Jr. was appointed as Senior Pastor, by Bishop E. R.
Patterson II, in March of 2014. Under his leadership, he has led the ministry to
greater spiritual heights, while also having made numerous physical renovations
and technological advancements even throughout the pandemic, to ensure the
comfortability of the Saints and the propagation of the gospel of Jesus of Christ.
Pastor Robinson, an anointed, visionary leader, is committed to leading this great
ministry, full of such rich heritage, with the same power, dignity and effectiveness,
by which his predecessors led.
