“Meeting the needs of individuals, families and communities holistically, through a variety of ministries and groups directed a restoring spiritually, emotionally, and economically…”

Bishop Stephan Simmons is the senior pastor of Restoration True Holiness Temple located in Oxon Hill MD. He has a heart for all people and believes that salvation, health, and deliverance is available to everyone through the Lord Jesus Christ. Bishop Simmons is a prominent voice for this generation, who’s grounded in “Holiness.” Compelling men and women to be filled with the Holy Ghost, he is a leading voice for a new generation of believers.

At an early age, under the guidance of his parents (Bishop Wilbert S. Simmons and Mother Barbara Simmons), he was introduced to the way of Holiness. In April 1973, he was baptized in the name: Lord Jesus Christ and received the gift of the Holy Ghost. Having the opportunity to travel extensively with his father for many years, he grew significantly in the Word of the Lord. He also served as the minister of music under his father for more than 20 years. At that time, affectionately known as Minister Teady, in addition to leading Restoration’s music ministry, he also played the lead guitar for many choirs, groups and solo artists around the DMV metropolitan area.

After working at the Prince George’s County Correctional Center for more than thirty-four years, Bishop Simmons retired in 2017 and is now enjoying pastoral ministry full-time. Almost twenty years ago (June 2000), Bishop Stephan Simmons was installed as the pastor of Restoration. In 2004, he had the honor of being appointed as the 5th District Elder in the Church of God and True Holiness organization. In 2010, during the 81st Holy Convocation for the Church of God and True Holiness, International he was consecrated as Bishop and was elevated to serve as the 5th District Bishop for the organization. Last year, he received a very esteemed honor as being elected the 1st Vice Presiding Bishop of the Church of God and True Holiness, International.

Bishop Stephan Simmons is married to Elect Lady Angela and together they have three children, Brianna Caszmir, Wilbert Stephan III and Skyler McKinley. He has an earned Master’s degree in Theology, and is currently pursuing his Doctorate of Ministry in Christian Education. He is grateful to the Lord for affording him the opportunity to lead and teach the people of the Lord. It is a great responsibility to serve as the under-Shepherd for a group of people from all walks of life, but with the Lord’s help as Bishop Simmons continues to work in the vineyard, he believes nothing shall be impossible. “I see the wood, I see the fire, but where is the sacrifice?”
