If anyone has this world's goods and sees his brother in need but closes his eyes to his need, how can God's love reside in him?  1 John 3:17

South Side for Texas

Hurricane Harvey devastated Texas—homes flooded, businesses destroyed, people displaced, etc., and we as the Church must assist those who are helping those affected by this terrible natural disaster. Over the next month, our church, along with many other Southern Baptist Churches in the area, will be collecting items and goods to fill a semi-truck trailer destined for Eastern Texas. The Sabine Neches Baptist Area churches (northeast of Houston) will be distributing the goods to whomever has need.

​Here are the details:

Drop Off Location: South Side Baptist Church

Drop Off Times: Tuesdays–Thursdays, 10:00 am – 5:00 pm & Sundays 9:30 am – 12:30 pm *If no one is at church or answers the door bell, feel free to leave all donations by the door under the overhang.

• Bottled and jugged water (entire area city water has been shut off)
