Dr. Edward Victor Hill (known as E.V.) was the famous pastor of Mt. Zion Missionary Baptist Church is Los Angeles. He was an early leader in the civil rights movement and an early confidant of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Dr. Hill was also a close personal friend of Dr. Billy Graham, the President of the National Baptist Convention, the largest grouping of African American Churches, and was honored by Time magazine as one of the seven most outstanding preachers in the United States.
Dr. Hill stood at the forefront of spiritual and social reconciliation. Dr. Hill’s church sat on the edge of the Watts community, and Dr. Hill was the leading mediator between the warring factions of that community. Baptist Press reports that Hill’s church was the center of political and social activism in the Los Angeles area. Hill never lost sight of his calling, which was to point men and women to Jesus. Probably one of his most famous sermons was the one entitled, “It’s Friday, But Sunday’s Coming!”
