Fields Chapel welcomed our new Pastor, Eric Lee on July 13, 2025.

Eric has been serving as a United Methodist pastor in North Georgia for 25 years. His primary responsibilities are preaching, pastoral care, and the development and implementation of vision and leadership for the church. Eric has served in rural, suburban, and urban settings across North Georgia including Varnell, Cartersville, Roswell, and Chamblee. He currently serves as pastor for Fields Chapel UMC and Liberty Hill UMC, both in Canton.

His first career was in real estate related tax consulting, and his doctoral research was around the future use of land and buildings by churches. Eric is happily remarried to Rev. Kristin Lee, who is also an elder in the North Georgia Conference of the United Methodist Church. They have five children between fourth grade and graduate school. When they’re not doing church stuff, they can likely be found playing tennis, watching University of Georgia football, or trying to keep up with those five kids!
