Rev. Earl Hendrix began his journey as a the Pastor of the Inman Mission church on April 22, 1967. With guidance from the Lord, and Rev. Earl’s willingness to put the hard work and countless hours in, First Free Will Baptist church was established as a beacon that has been showing Christ love and impacting lives in the Inman community and the greater Spartanburg area since its inception. Rev. Earl served the Lord faithfully here in Inman for 50 years before the Lord called him home in November 2017. His testimony & his legacy continues to shine throughout the lives of those that he impacted during his pastorate. Only Heaven truly knows the thousands of lives he impacted with his wisdom & his love. We are very thankful to have had such a Godly founder, leader, Pastor, and friend.
