Pastor’s Notes... Greetings my Brothers and Sisters in Christ. Happy Spring to all! It's that time of year when the pollen is active and the birds are singing. We thank God that we made it through the winter months and are on our way to Easter and the heat that comes with East Texas. We are also excited about

the coming months and the joy that comes with being able to worship the Lord here at Jackson Spring Hill Baptist Church. Our Family and Friends Day is the first Sunday May 5, 2019 at 3:00 pm. Rev. Marquise Collins will be our special guest from Mt. Olive Baptist Church, Winona, TX. Please come and join us as we want to celebrate with our loved ones and friends. We are also looking forward to the Annual Revival and Homecoming this year. Every year gets better and better. As we know there are many that have gone on and a lot of people are not well, but never the less we press on and look forward to seeing all of the Run-a-ways that are still willing and able to come and be a part of the festivities. We thank God for those that continue to support their home church. It's a blessing to know that you still care about where you came from. Thank God for all of His blessings and may God pour out His blessings upon you. This is our prayer for you. Until He Comes! Pastor Danny O. Beal

Family & Friends Day 3 PM Sunday, May 5, 2019

Rev. Marquise L. Collins

Our Family and Friends Day is the 1st Sunday, May 5, 2019 at 3:00 pm. Rev. Marquise L. Collins of Mt. Olive Baptist Church, Winona, Texas will be guest speaker. Come and hear a young man who received his calling at the age of 20 when he served as an Associate Pastor under the guidance of his uncle, the Rev. Efram Collins of Hopewell Valley Baptist Church, Swan, Texas. In 2004-2007 young Collins answered the call as pastor of Calvary Missionary Baptist Church in Jacksonville, Texas. On June 3, 2007, he was installed as pastor at Mt. Olive. Over the years, many individuals have given

their lives to Christ and others have rededicated themselves to God under the leadership of Rev. Collins. He has overseen two successful building fundraising campaigns. Collins comes

from a family of ministers who believes in working for the Lord. He is the son of the Rev. James Collins and Rita Collins born here in Tyler, Texas. At a young age, the Collins family moved to Amarillo, Texas when his father became pastor of Mt. Zion Baptist Church. He graduated in 2001 from Palo Duro High School in Amarillo. In 2011, he graduated from Texas College in Tyler, Texas with a BA in Business Administrations. He is a proud member of Kappa Alpha PSI Fraternity.

During his tenure at Calvary, Collins became a carpenter apprentice and soon he was able to form AMT (A Master’s Touch) affordable remodeling company. Collins also is co-owner of Collins-Wickware Glare Mechanic and Details Shop in Tyler. The Commissioners Court of Smith County, Texas proclaimed June 4, 2017 as “Rev. Marquise L. Collins Day” an acknowledgement for his stewardship and committed leadership to and for his congregation and community.

Rev. Collins is the father of 5 children, three girls, Tenecia, (who will be a 2019 graduate of Tascosa High School in Amarillo), Ty’Asia, and TaMiya one son, Marquise Collins, Jr., from a previous marriage. On March 11, seven years ago, he married Destiny Devos and they have a three year-old son name Kingston Collins.
