Rev Earl Hodges has been a hospice chaplain and bereavement counselor with Canon hospice, for 15 years. He's also pastor of Olive Branch Ministries of Greater New Orleans, an interdenominational ministry which is located in Kenner. He's a native of Alabama but has lived in the New Orleans area for 50 years. He graduated from the University of Montevallo (located in Alabama) with a B.A. degree (major in history and minor in sociology), and from the New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary ( Master of Divinity degree). I've ministered in various churches in the New Orleans area, including Baptist, Lutheran and Disciples of Christ
Rev. Earl states: "Ministering as a hospice chaplain has been one of the most rewarding things I've ever done. I never planned to do this but God in his providence directed my life in this direction. As a hospice chaplain you are often the last person to pray with a person before they pass. I've held hands and been praying with people as they pass. That has had a great impact on my life. I've also conducted more than 100 funerals for hospice patients who didn't have a pastor. I've also performed marriage ceremonies for hospice patients and marriage renewals for hospice patients.
