Missions

At Green Acres Baptist Church, we believe missions is something that we do every day. That's why we encourage our church members to engage their community with the Gospel of Christ in their daily lives. We partner with local ministries to give our members an opportunity for engagement at home, but we're also engaged across Texas, the US, and around the globe. Check out what's going on in GABC South missions below!

Current Missions Opportunities

Below are GABC South's Current Missions Ongoing or Upcoming Opportunites. 

    TExas Partnership

    Crosspointe Indian Church

    We are excited about our new partnership with Crosspointe Indian Church in Plano, TX. Crosspointe Indian Church exists to passionately present Jesus Christ and make disciples of the first generation Asian Indian families, professionals, and students in the greater Plano area. Our partnership serves Crosspointe by providing manpower and resources to help them fulfill their vision of reaching Indian non-believers in their area. The partnership serves GABC South by helping us extend our Great Commission reach outside of the Tyler area, and by providing an opportunity to be introduced to cross-cultural missions.


    You can find out more about Crosspointe on their website, cicplano.org.

    Local Ministries & Partnerships

    • WIN Ministry

      Widows in Need is a ministry to widows and widowers in the church. It is a joint effort between the missions team and the deacons. The goal is to help provide for physical needs they have, as well as be an emotional and spiritual support to them. WIN frequently partners with other ministries of the church to provide for those in need.

    • Philadelphia Blessing

      Philadelphia Blessing is a food pantry that partners with the East Texas Food bank to offer emergency food distribution for Whitehouse area residents. GABC South has a continual donation box to assist with this desperate need. You can join us by bringing non-perishable food items. 


      Then one day Jesus will say to you "For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat." Matthew 25:35

    • St. Paul Children's Foundation

      During the 2015 summer, our Hub Student Ministry first partnered with St. Paul Children's Foundation's summer feeding program to provide fun activities and teach Bible stories throughout the summer. One state social services auditor said this was one of the best partnerships that he had seen in the entire state of Texas.


      The Hub continues to serve at St. Paul's each summer, and the ministry impact continues to grow. Today, SPCF provides nutritious food, warm clothing, quality pediatric medical and dental care and spiritual support to over 40,000 children and their families each year. You can find out more about St Paul and how you can get involved by clicking here.

    • CERT Egg Hunt & Family Day

      Each year, the Chaplains Emergency Response Team of Smith County partner with GABC South and Lone Star Baptist Church for an egg hunt for the families of Smith County First Responders. Annually, we feed around 700 people at the event, hide over 5000 eggs, and welcome first responders from all ares of service in the county. This annual event provides an opportunity for the families of area law enforcement and emergency personnel to get to know each other better, and gives the kids a safe, fun place to hunt eggs.
