Hank Hilliard

Hey! My name is Hank Hilliard and I am the "youth guy" here at the General Board of Discipleship. I am the newest member of the Young People’s Ministries Team. I am so excited about getting to serve the youth of the United Methodist Church. On this page you will find information about what is going on in the church. You will also find some fun stories about youth loving, serving, and caring in our world today. I want to hear your stories and ideas! Please send these to me at hhilliard@gbod.org or find me on facebook!
