March 18 1960, in Charleston, WV to Mr. Robert Lee and Elnora Marie Hill.
Educated in Kanawha County Schools till the age 16 after which he decided on his own
that he no longer needed school to make it in this life. Less than one year later at the age of 17 he found himself standing
before a judge who sentenced him to the state penitentiary at Moundsville for the rest of his natural life. Pastor Hill came
to know Christ after two years of being incarcerated and it was there that God called him to preach as well as pastor the
very men whom he was locked up with. In 1988 God over ruled the Judges sentence and released Pastor Hill to further the call
upon his life to do the will of God outside the walls of prison. In 1990 Reverend Hill was called to serve as Youth Minister
of The Liberty Missionary Baptist Church by which also in 1991 he was licensed to preach the gospel under the pastorate of
Reverend Charles E. Blackmon.

Revival and in 1992 he was asked to do so again. In 1996 he was ordained by The Mt. Olivet Baptist Association after being
called to serve as Senior Pastor of The Liberty Missionary Baptist Church.
Pastor Hill also serves on various boards and committees through out the community which he feels
he is call to serve.
In
December 2004 Pastor Hill was granted a full and unconditional pardon by then Governor Bob Wise, and was selected by the Martin Luther King Jr. West Virginia Holiday Commission to be the
recipient of the 2008 Govenor's "Living The Dream" Award. Today he
