At the young age of 10 years old, Bishop Wilkins received Christ into his life and was baptized with the Holy Ghost at the Greater Refuge Temple Church pastored by the late Apostle William Lee Bonner. At the age of thirteen, the Lord led him to join the church.  At the young age of nineteen Bishop Wilkins accepted the call into the preaching ministry. Bishop Wilkins who is a servant at heart served faithfully in several capacities within his local church as well as the International Church; the Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ (COOLJC).
Some of the key role he has served in are: Young People Union President, member of the Board of Directors for the Greater Refuge Temple Outreach Services Inc., International Congress President and Greater Refuge Temple and Youth Pastor for over fifteen years. Bishop Wilkins also is the founder of the Youth Ministers Alliance (YMA) under the International Board of Presbyters for the COOLJC where he served to train young ministers and provide them with peer fellowship opportunities.  One of Bishop Wilkins greatest passions of service was serving his pastor the late  great Bishop William Bonner. Bishop Wilkins served his father in the gospel until the Lord called him from labor to reward in 2015.
