Wayne McMillian steps down as pastor of First Baptist Church, Uriah

BETHLEHEM ASSOCIATION

Wayne McMillian recently stepped down from the pastorate of First Baptist Church, Uriah, to take a sabbatical and spend time with his wife, Alice, before stepping into interim pastoral ministry.

“I think that churches need that ‘transitional pastor’ who can bridge the gap between an ongoing minister and an incoming minister,” he said.

Before his time at First, Uriah, McMillian served as pastor of Mexia Baptist Church; First Baptist Church, Satsuma; First Baptist Church, Foley; and First Baptist Church, Monroeville; and as director of missions for Bethlehem and Pine Barren Baptist associations. He also served with the International Mission Board for 10 years in Africa and served with the North American Mission Board in the Dakota Baptist Convention.
