Leon Gilleland

Adult discipleship

Salt + Light class

Senior Adults

Leon is a native of White County. He teaches our Salt+Light Bible Study every Sunday morning at 9:45 and leads our ministry to the Senior adults as well as our Saturday night Men's Prayer Group (Sons of Thunder). Speaking of his childhood, he says that "my day started with the smell of biscuits cooking in the wood burning stove and the smell of fresh brewing coffee before chores and school." That's where he learned that "a little coffee and a whole lotta Jesus makes a perfect day." Leon has been serving at the CWC for 50 years in various capacities and has been teaching the Salt and Light class for 38 years. His wife's name is Linda, and he has 3 children and 5 grandchildren.
