Her formative years continued under the leadership of her mother and maternal grandparents, Pastor Benjamin Edward Boulding & Mother Callie Rodgers Boulding, founders of their local church Saints Chapel Church of God in Christ (currently in its 98th year of existence – organized in 1928). Yolanda has been a pastor’s wife since 1983 and has worked with her husband at the various churches he has founded and/or pastored.
