Meet Our Pastor

Pastor Hirley Smith

Pastor Hirley Smith has faithfully served as Pastor of Bethany Free Will Baptist Church since January 2026. With a heart for God and a genuine love for people, he is committed to preaching the Word of God and caring for the needs of the congregation.

Pastor Smith is a dedicated man of God who seeks to lead with humility, compassion, and a sincere desire to see lives changed through the truth of Scripture. His preaching is firmly grounded in God’s Word, with a focus on helping individuals and families grow stronger in their faith and closer in their walk with the Lord.

He and his wife, Carolyn, are a blessing to the church family and a testimony of Christian kindness and faithfulness. Together, they have quickly become a cherished part of Bethany, showing genuine care and love for those they serve.

With thankful hearts, we believe the Lord has placed Pastor Smith at Bethany for this time, and we look forward to continuing to grow in the Word and serve our community together under his leadership.

Pastor Smith warmly invites you to come and meet together with us at Bethany Free Will Baptist Church. Whether you are looking for a church home or simply visiting, you will always be welcome.
