Welcome TEAM
Our Welcome Team is ready to welcome you to Green Acres South and answer any questions you might have. You can find them at all of our entrances and at the Welcome Center located in the east lobby. They will have some information for you and will be available to answer your questions. If you arrive for Sunday Morning Bible Study, they will be happy to help you find your classes. If you arrive for worship, they will be happy to help you find a seat.
Our Campus Pastor, Dustin Slaton, tries to get around to every guest before the service, but sometimes he can't get around to everyone. He always stands near the canopy entrance at the end of services, and looks forward to meeting you. He even has a gift for you!
Find Your Spot
Parking & Entering
Park anywhere! At Green Acres South, every parking spot is close, so find a spot and come on in!
You can enter GABC South's parking by coming in the main entrance off of County Road 137, or by entering the Recreation Outreach Center (ROC) entrance and coming up the back road to the West Parking Lot.
Mobility Impaired parking is available in front near the canopy and down the west side of the building.
Visitor reserved parking is available in front of the South Campus around the triangle.
If the weather is bad, feel free to drive through the canopy and drop off the family before going to park. Just, please do not leave your vehicle unattended so as to not block the drive through.
To ensure the safety of those attending GABC South, our East and West side doors remain locked, but our welcome team will be nearby to open the doors for those who come to the sides 20 minutes before SMBS and before worship. Guests are always encouraged to enter through the front entrances.

It's All About Him
Worship Experience
At Green Acres South, we have a great worship time led by our music team. The music is an up-beat, band led, blended style, incorporating classic hymns and new songs to bring our diverse members together in worship. There will typically be something different in each service, whether it is a special time or prayer or a focus on something God has done. Dr. David Dykes, the Senior Pastor at Green Acres Baptist Church, preaches a challenging, Biblical message each Sunday, which is viewed at the South Campus on-screen via live feed.
For a more complete description of our worship time, check out our Worship Page.
Your little ones are important to us
Kids & Safety
At Green Acres South, children are a top priority! That's why we strive to provide a clean, safe, and fun environment where they can be taught the truths of Christ.
We provide nursery care for newborns to Pre-K children during SMBS, Sunday morning worship and Wednesday Evening Bible Study.
We use a computer check-in system to provide a safe and secure drop-off and pick-up process to ensure that your children are only returned to an authorized adult. If this is your first time, you can sign in as a guest. If you plan to come back in the future, you can fill out an SMBS registration form and we will put you in the system for next time. You can set up an account for your children at the check-in computer near the Kidz area.
