In the year of 2011 Minister Williams felt an urge from God to be elevated in the ecclesiastical ladder. He was given a vision to start his own Youth Ministry called "Young Ppl Praising Ministries" in his uncles funeral home located on 4th street in Champaign. It was there he lead many Friday night services allowing the young people of the city and those that supported his vision to use their gifts and talents for the Lord. Around that time he bumped into a few people he would call his congregants from New Generation Christian Fellowship under the leadership of Apostle Larry C. Simmons and Co- Pastor Kim Simmons. Apostle Simmons came to one of the meetings and caught the vision the young preacher had. It was then Elder - Elect Joseph L. Williams was ordained under Apostle Larry C. Simmons in November of 2011. After joining New Generation, Elder Williams was given the task by Apostle Simmons to take his vision of monthly Youth Services and expanded it into an explosion. Thus, birth out the Annual Youth Explosion in the month of July which any have tried to produce in the city, some worked and some failed, but this God guided vision was to stand forever. In the summer of 2012 the first Youth Explosion was born and it has impacted many lives and change the attitudes of young people in the city of Champaign-Urbana. Many youth have had a privilege of taking part in this Explosion. Just to name a few; Minister Darryl K. Boatright, Minister Devante Scruggs, Minister Jordan C. Simmons, Minister Joseph V. Wilson, Bro Lamar Browning, and the many others from singers, musicians, ushers, and camera operators. Overall Elder Williams who is the founder of such a vivacious movement that the city has not seen in years has tremendously shaped the fabric of young people in this area and many others to become all they can be in Jesus Christ.
