Thomas A. Broadhead, Associate Pastor/Minister of Education

I was born and grew up in Meridian, MS where I met and married Linda. As an older teenager, I trusted Christ as Savior and Lord at 17 years of age. Over all those years I have served churches in MS and have been Associate Pastor at Heritage Hills since January of 2005. Linda graduated from MSU, taught elementary school for years, and I graduated from Mississippi College and New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary.
We have two married children and five grandchildren. Linda is my best friend and we enjoy our West Highland White Terriers together. My hobby is web site design and maintenance.
I believe it is the responsibility of every Christian to share the Gospel of Christ. We are all on mission. We are responsible to lead by example, to disciple believers in their personal walk with Jesus, and equip them to share their faith with others. Our passion as a church family should be to “Know Him and Make Him known.”
My favorite passage is Matthew 28:19-20:

“Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father
and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
teaching them to observe everything
I have commanded you. And remember, I
am with you always, to the end of the age.”

Andy Futch,  Student Minister

Andy has been active in ministry for over 10 years and Minister of Family Life and Activities of Heritage Hills since January of 2000. He is a graduate of University of Texas and Southwestern Theological Seminary. He and his wife Heather have been married for over 13 years and have two children, Elizabeth and Malachi.

Andy enjoys spending time with his family, the outdoors, wood working, and working around the house.

Understanding what God has brought him through and knowing that it is only by His strength that he can get through each day, one of the verses he has always loved is Joshua 1:9:

"Haven't I commanded you: be strong and courageous?
Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord your God is
with you wherever you go."

Scott Fraser, Minister of Worship and Music

Scott has been in active ministry for 23 years, serving churches in Texas, Missouri, and Mississippi.  He joined the ministry team at Heritage Hills Baptist Church in April of 2007.  Before coming to Heritage Hills, Scott served as Minister of Music for eight years at Calvary Baptist Church in Beaumont, Texas,  ten years at First Baptist of Fenton.  He served on the staff at Missouri Baptist University for two years. He is a graduate of Mississippi State University, receiving a Bachelor’s of Music Education. He also is a graduate of New England Conservatory of Music where he received a Master’s of Music and New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary where he received a Master’s of Religious Education.

Scott and his wife Priscilla have been married for 22 years. Priscilla is presently pursuing her nursing degree. They have been blessed with twin sons, homeschooled completely, and are now attending Liberty University.

Scott believes that music ministry at any church exists to glorify God and to invite others to seek God whole heartedly. “Worship is not about us, it’s all about HIM.”  The Word of God, in Isaiah 26:8, says  “Yes, Lord, walking in the way of your laws, we wait for you; your name and renown are the desire of our hearts.”  Let this be said of all of us.

Tom Covington, Minister to Preschool/Children

Tom and his family have been attending HHBC for a little over two years now with roots here going back many years.  Tom has earned a BA in Criminal Justice from UGA and a MA in Christian Studies from Luther Rice Seminary.  In addition to being licensed to preach and working in various ministries over the years, he has been employed the last 8 years at Newton Co. Dept. of Family and Children Services.  Recently, HHBC has ordained Tom into the Gospel ministry.  Tom and his wife, Holly, have 3 children, Stephen, Rebekah, and Joshua.

Ben Hunter, Upward Ministry Director

Benjamin has been active in ministry for over 7 years and Upward Ministry Director of Heritage Hills since August of 2009. He and his wife Tyris have been married for over 6 years and have three children, Maurice, Cameron and Aniya.

Ben enjoys spending time with his family, Technology, Auto Mechanics, and Music Production.
One of Ben’s favorite verses is Matthew 16: 24-25:

Then Jesus said to his disciples, "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will find it.".

Lisa Dawkins , Early Learning Center/Preschool Director

I was born in Atlanta, Ga. and raised in Roswell. I moved to Conyers in 1987.
I have been married for 21 years and have two sons, Kevin and Hunter. Kevin is a freshman at Andrew College. He is going to major in secondary education with a minor in history. He is the catcher for the baseball team at Andrew. Hunter is a junior at Rockdale County High School. He is in the teaching career path at Rockdale Career Academy. He is on the swim team at Rockdale and place 1st base on the baseball team.

I attended Reinhardt College in Walesa Ga. My focus of study was Early Childhood Education. I have been a director in childcare since 2001. I have been at Heritage Hills since 2008. I love working with children, watching them grow and learn, not only academically but also spiritually. My hope is for The Early Learning Center/Preschool at Heritage Hills to continue to be a ministry to young children and their families in our community for many years to come.
