Joe graduated from Port St. Joe high school in 1978. As a result of his academic and athletic achievements, he received an appointment to the U.S. Naval Academy. He spent his time there as a collegiate boxer and earned a bachelors degree in engineering. He graduated in May 1982 and was commissioned as an officer in the U.S. Marine Corps. Joe served his country as a combat engineer, deploying to Norway, Lebanon, Japan and Korea. After leaving the military, Joe spent his career as a medical device engineer, retiring in 2021.
In April 1979 Joe met his wife Aileen while she was attending Hood College. They married in June 1982 and together they welcomed into their family and raised two children, Kimberly and John.
As a young child, Joe accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior and was baptized. As an adult, he received the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Joe deeply loved God and served Him throughout his life. He was so excited in February 2021 to enter into full-time ministry. His passion for setting captives free and helping others discover their spiritual birthright was the hallmark of his role as a prayer coach with Bride Ministries.

(Nikki) Wilson; grandchildren Bruce Campen, Dana Campen, Keira Wilson, Blake Wilson.
