The daily thoughts of my Pastor Hubert L.Powell brings joy and sadness. I wish we had more time to talk. Then the joy of knowing a great man of God who has had a powerful impact on my life. His method of preaching/teaching with some humor at times. I have came to understand that God wants me to fully surrender all of me to doing God's Will. I understand that falling in love with Jesus is truly about. Thank you Pastor Hubert. GratefulDeacon John

I was introduced to Pastor Powell's music in the late 90's listening to WOAK in Atlanta . His instrumentals from the Keep on Pressing on album were used thru out the broadcasts (It took me years to find out who he was!). I was a new minister and would listen to his music over and over every day.

Now me and my family listen to him and Doobie and even watch the YouTube clips of Kevin and the remainder of the family. You and your family have inspired a generation of believers in the art of praise and soulful celebration of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Thank you for making gospel music "cool" for me. Peace and blessings to you all in your loss and continue to "Keep Pressing On".

Our deepest condolences to the Powell Family. I was once a member of Holy Trinity COGIC back in 1965. Hubert was anointed by God to play the organ and he was our musician for the choir and his mother, Sister Edith Powell was our director. I will always remember the fun times we all had together. Just know Powell Family that you're in our prayers. May God continue to bless you.
