A Welcome from the Pastor

Senior Pastor Henrithia Hanslip

Welcome to the Mainland Seventh-day Adventist Church!

Thank you for taking the time to visit our website. Whether you're looking for a church home, returning to your walk with God, or simply wanting to learn more about Jesus, I'm glad you're here.

It is truly a blessing to serve as the pastor of this wonderful church family. My prayer is that when you visit Mainland, you'll feel welcomed, loved, and encouraged. We are a church that loves God, loves people, and wants to make a difference in our community.

One of the greatest joys of my life is serving God alongside my son, Herrington Cruise. He has been part of this journey with me, and I thank God for the opportunity to watch him grow while we serve together.

We enjoy worshiping together, studying the Bible, praying for one another, and serving our neighbors.

If you're ever in the Texas City area, I would love the opportunity to meet you personally. Our church doors are always open, and there is a place here for you and your family.

I hope to see you soon.

God bless,Pastor Henrithia HanslipSenior PastorMainland Seventh-day Adventist Church
