Everyone loves jewels. I owe God a praise just for allowing me to know one of his true jewels. Pastor Hines was truly a man who walked his talk. He didn't have to wear a big cross around his neck to prove his relationshipwiththe Lord. His lifestyle was his testimony.

Mother Hines and Family,

Today we stumbled into Pastor Hines' Guest Book and we smiled. Pastor Hines always gave his best and therefore He received the BEST. This special book overflows with so many beautiful messages about this Giant of a Man. Our family was richly blessed to be apart of his ministry. May God continue to Bless and be with you always.

Love,

Deacon Larry, Verbia, Clifton and Charet Sanders

To Mother Hines and Family: I have had the honor to know one of God's Best! During the 3 years I have been at Shiloh, Pastor Hines has been so instrumental in my Spiritual growth. I moved away from my father to come and find a father. He corrected me and congratulated me all in one sentence! Never raising his voice. Only to laugh a little. He was a giver of knowledge and of strength. Even when I wanted to leave and go home, Pastor encouraged and told me I was going to make it. He is...

When I first heard the news it broke my heart...but then I realized that he is in a far better place than I am...I cried with my mother tears of joy. I will miss him dearly but I running this race to one day see him again. So I wont say Good bye but I will just say see you soon Eld Hines, and may you RIP...Love Always Whitney Bonique Woodall

Nobody will ever know how pastor Hines was there for me, even in my times of distress. I truely miss him, but I am also assured that he is in a better place. To the Hines Family and the Shiloh Church family, my deepest condolences and prayers are forever with you!!!

REMAIN BLESSED!

Dear Mother Hines and Family,
May the Lord hold you and sustain you in His arms of compassion. I just wanted you to know that I thank God for allowing me and my family to be a part of you and Pastor's ministry. It has been such a blessing. I know that Pastor lived his entire life for this moment and we do rejoice and celebrate, yet he will be greatly missed. There are not many who truly have the heart and mind of GOD and Pastor Hines was one of the very few. We love you and are praying...

To Mom Hines, Carol, Billy, Donna, Jackie, Mark and Thewantha:

You know I truly understand what you’re going through at this time. Pastor passed 5 months almost to the date after I lost Mommy. I’ve been with him since the age of 7 ½ years old and he was like a real Father to me. I called him Dad and he called me his Daughter. Our families have been so closely connected down through the years and when you hurt we hurt and vice versa. I've lost my Mom and Pastor; that’s two...

And they shall be mine, saith the Lord of host, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him. Malachi 3:17

Truly we loss a jewel in Pastor Hines...not a day goes by, when I dont think about him...He has made a huge impact on my life...he was one of the first people to tell me to stop running from God, and accept my calling...and he told me something that I will never forget..he said 'daughter, stop running from God,...
