Global Service
“As God has loved us, we will meet people on common ground and journey together to the higher ground of life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Glynn Langston – Insight International
Glynn Langston is a homegrown Houstonian who now ministers to visually impaired people around the world. Now based in Louisiana, much of his ministry is devoted to supplying those who would like to study with audio, large print, or Braille edition Bibles. You can visit his website for more information.
Reggy Hiller – Missionary to Eastern European Refugees
Southwest Central is the sponsoring congregation for Reggy Hiller’s missionary work. Reggy lives in Vienna, Austria and ministers to the people of her city and the many Middle Eastern and African refugees that come to their community. She often feeds people both literally and figuratively, by providing hot meals to hungry people and free Bibles to those who would like to study.
Local Service
Reach 2 Teach
On Wednesday afternoons, Southwest Central is home to Reach 2 Teach, a tutoring/mentoring opportunity inside our building. We offer personal tutoring to children of the neighborhood who need assistance with reading, homework, projects, subjects, and the like. As time goes on, so does trust and fellowship, a framework for relationship with people we cherish.
The Point
We are a supporting congregation of The Point, a campus ministry at the University of Houston. You can support their efforts by providing financial donations or helping to prepare lunches and desserts.
Hosting Groups
We want to be good stewards of the space we’ve been given. Our building is used for various groups and gatherings, including the YMCA, a porcelain art club, local elections, and more.
Ciudad de Angeles
Several members of our congregation take a yearly mission trip to Ciudad de Angeles, a family-based orphanage in Cozumel. They spend a week there serving on physical building projects and community initiatives. Over time, they have developed personal relationships with some of the “angels” and remain connected, via letter writing and financial support, throughout the year. All skill sets are valuable and welcome on this project.
