In case you haven’t already heard: Earlier this week, I announced my retirement from ministry. I did this with mixed emotions. Of course, I am excited about beginning a new phase of my life, but am saddened to leave the saints of this church. You have welcomed Wanda and me, and made us feel like a part of this family of faith. This is a special community.

As of July 1, 2019, I will leave the ministry of the United Methodist Church. I leave knowing that while we have served here, the Holy Spirit has been working. We’ve seen new members join, old members return, new outreach projects begin, our financial positions strengthen, and worship become more fun!

I am looking forward to the adventures God has in store for me as I focus on social justice issues once again, working in communities of neighbors who might not otherwise hear the Gospel message preached in actions not words.

​You will soon have a wonderful new pastor, one I know you will welcome warmly. Please know that while I will no longer be your pastor, I will always consider you my friends. — Pastor Eddie Hilliard

    In matters of faith, we at First United Methodist Church, Sealy put primary reliance on the Bible. In scripture, we understand that we are all God’s children; therefore, we will be a church that cares for the needs of our church and local community through prayer, deeds, inspiration, and love in the spirit of Christ.
