More About Pastor Pamela K. Williams

Pastor Pamela K. Williams (often called Pastor Pamm) is a lifelong resident of West Philadelphia and the founding pastor of the Ark of Refuge Tabernacle of Philadelphia, an affirming and inclusive ministry in the University City community. Pastor Pamm is a ministerial-associated Fellowship of Affirming Ministries - founded by Dr. Yvette Flounder.

She is a past member of the Pennsylvania State Steering Committee for Equality PA, the Community Advisory Board Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania, and the Philadelphia Branch of the NAACP.

Pastor Pamm has also served as an Executive Committee member and the First Vice Chair of the 60th Democratic Ward of Philadelphia County.
Pastor Pamm’s mission is to live her mother's legacy by advocating for God’s oppressed and marginalized people, especially the LGBTQI community.

Pastor Pamm learned how to love and support the disenfranchised and those in despair through her mother. Mrs. Williams’ struggle for civic improvement embraced many aspects of urban life-civil rights, politics, health, education, housing, and economic development, particularly emphasizing the African American experience. She was a consummate advocate for change.

Pastor Pamm has continued her mom’s legacy and walked in her shoes. On her deathbed, Ms. Williams told her to build a church. Churches have the responsibility to be community development for all communities – ACCOUNTABILITY.

“Pastor Pamm has the strong values, community roots, and courage we need to stand up to politicians and working people. Her platform of creating fair housing opportunities, raising the wage, ensuring fair education funding, providing healthcare for all, advocating for women’s rights, reforming criminal justice systems, and getting money out of politics is resonating with the residents of her district. We need change in Harrisburg now, and we need leaders like Pastor Pamm with the strong backbone and moral compass to lead that change.” – Brandon Evans, Pennsylvania Working Families Party.
