Pastor David Pope

David and his wife, Nikki, were raised in and continue to live in Haleyville, Alabama and have been married since 2012. They have two beautiful children Natalie, and Kyler.

David accepted Christ as a child and accepted his calling into ministry in 2013 and he and his family have called Hines Memorial Baptist Church "home" since 2021. He has been serving as an evangelist in Haleyville, Bear Creek, and surrounding communities since that time. David's heart and passion is to show the love of Christ, not only to those inside the chunch walls, but also all throughout the community.

Mark 12: 30-31

“30. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and will all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' 31. The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these”

Because of this, he has led and been involved in several outreach ministries within the Haleyville and Bear Creek communities and invites all others, feeling led to the same, to join him in the Lord's work.

In 2023, David felt the Lord calling him away from the evangelical role and into his home church at Hines Memorial Baptist in some other capacity and in 2024, David was announced as the Senior Pastor at Hines.

David is a man who loves God, God's people, and his word.
