Our Pastors/Staff

PowerHouse Church was founded in 1996. Pastor G.F. Watkins, a spiritual son of the late Dr. Edwin Louis Cole, and his wife Rose Watkins knocked on doors in Katy, Texas inviting people to a "different kind of church". In 20 years from humble beginnings, PowerHouse has grown to include churches on 4 continents; America, Africa, South America, and Asia. In 2016 Pastor G.F. turned the church over to one of his spiritual sons, Pastor Robert Burdett.
