December 17th 2023, in the Centennial Year of the Universal Hagar’s Spiritual Church Association, Inc. (UHSCA) the Family, Members, Well-Wishers, and Friends celebrate the 29th Anniversary of the Universal Hagar’s Spiritual Church – Wisconsin State Headquarters, Temple #1, Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
The UHS Church Wisconsin comes from the humble beginnings of 1224 W. 20th Place ( Gary, Indiana) home of the Indiana Giant, Rev. Herbert Harrison. Under his leadership Mother Letha Owens and Mme. Mildred Malone along with their families started a mission that later became UHS Church #3. Many years later, after Rev. Reese’s retirement from pastoral leadership, the family began a solid migration that landed them in Wisconsin during the mid-1980’s. In the years that followed Saints Timothy (Georgianna) Gardner and the children along with Saint Mildred Robinson conducted a Prayer Meeting every weekend at her home in Milwaukee. Soon, the Milwaukee home of Saint Mildred Robinson became the mainstay of the family who gathered in prayer and praise to renew strength by lifting the name and teachings of Father G. W. Hurley. In 1990 Rev. Georgia Latimer commissioned Rev. Mildred Reese from retirement appointing her Pastor of Mission #1 Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and insisted that Saint Mildred Robinson become crowned. Saint Mildred Robinson became crowned and ordained that she may officially hold the position of Assistant Pastor in Wisconsin; one of many positions she dedicated her life. Rev. Mildred Robinson has been an active worker of the UHSCA since the age of 4 years. At the time of her transition had served Father Hurley for 78 years in the organization as an Altar Girl, Virgin Staff, Choir Director, Assistant Pastor, State Missionary; HYPU President, Message Bearer, and is forever among our great inspirations.
In April 1994 Mission #1 Milwaukee, Wisconsin became recognized as a church, after meeting all the conditions and requirements set forth by Rev. Georgia Latimer and the UHSCA Constitution and By-Laws. In April 1995 both Prof. Timothy Gardner and Mme. Georgianna became appointed to Associate Pastor under the guidance of Mme. Mildred Robinson and Rev. Mildred Reese. After many years of traveling and challenging work, the members petitioned the Wisemen Board and Rev. Mildred Reese became appointed State Princess of Wisconsin, and subsequently a member of the UHSCA Wisemen Board. Rev. Mildred Reese worked dutifully in the capacity of State Princess and Senior Pastor until her transition at the age of 99 years young. Prof. Timothy Gardner became an Ordained Minister of the UHSCA and later appointed State Prince of Wisconsin and Pastor of State Headquarters Church- Milwaukee where he continued to work for Hurley alongside Princess Reese and Rev. Robinson. The membership of UHS Church – Wisconsin continues to grow and conscientiously puts all efforts toward helping to lift the fallen, provide a haven to those who seek spiritual refuge, and to uphold, preach and teach the great liberating doctrine of our Founder, Father George W. Hurley.
Rev., Dr. Timothy Gardner joins the ranks of one of many shining examples of the miraculous things God through Father Hurley can do. Thanks to kind spirits, he has developed into an excellent health practitioner, mentor, instructor, orator, author, and musician. He earned a Doctoral Degree in Family Primary Care and is published in prominent Medical Journals and Textbooks. Of note, he has dedicated and published a spiritual work titled, The Everlasting Gospel of the Kingdom of God (Spirit) Within. Further, Rev. Timothy Gardner fulfilled the vision of the late Prince E. Holmes (who instituted the Men’s Night) to establish the Supreme Men’s Convention of the UHSCA and was its first President. He also established the UHSCA Men’s Retreat. Rev. Timothy Gardner is a former member of the Advisory Board and Crowning Committee. Currently, he is a member of the UHSCA Wisemen Board; Co-founder and Dean of the Hagar’s School of Ministry; Most Royal Exalted Master of the Knights of the All-Seeing Eye (KASE); and most recently Chairperson of the UHSCA Centennial Celebration Committee that hosted a spectacular event on the world stage September 22-24, 2023 in Detroit, Michigan to commemorate the first 100 years of the UHSCA, Inc., featuring a scheduled Centennial Address to the UHSCA by President of the Wisemen Board, Princess Beverly Davis; Centennial Address to the Nation by Spiritual Leader, Princess Shirley Aquart; an international keynote speaker, Student Minister Bro. Nuri Muhammad of the Nation of Islam, and much more!
Like Prince Harrison, Princess Reese, and Rev. Robinson before him, Prince Timothy Gardner believes leadership is a privilege that must be guarded and guided by righteous spirits in full awareness that no one can run this race alone. Therefore, we must ever stand united for the right and be willing to know, to love, and to serve God in Spirit and in Truth. Never forget to apply the spiritual teachings to life and hold to God’s unchanging hand. PEACE
