The Dion Ainsworth Missions Offering is a special offering taken once a year in support of local community ministry efforts and revitalization of the local church. Everything given through this offering is kept 100% in Southeast Texas.

Community Ministry Efforts

Half of the Dion Ainsworth Missions Offering goes directly towards resourcing community ministry training and efforts in Southeast Texas. This includes funding and training for such ministries as for the homeless, diaper assistance, and other vital efforts to reach those often overlooked and forgotten for the kingdom.

Church Planting and Revitalization

Half of the Dion Ainsworth Missions Offering goes towards planting, replanting and revitalizing churches in Southeast Texas. This includes providing training and consults to churches in need of new strategies and plans for revitalization as well as funding new churches reaching overlooked or unreached areas in the Golden Triangle.

Our Missions Offering is named in honor of Dion Ainsworth, the former Director of Ministry Evangelism for the Golden Triangle Baptist Network.

Brother Dion passionately delivered God's love to the needy as he spent most of his life serving the homeless, abused, and neglected of Southeast Texas. For more than thirty years he worked with at-risk youth at Opportunity Camp. He served the homeless at Calvary House Emergency Homeless Shelter and family members of inmates at Shepherds Inn Gaspard Center.

Dion Ainsworth passed away on May 18, 2013 leaving behind a legacy of service to the kingdom. In his memory, the Golden Triangle Baptist Network continues to prioritize community ministry efforts and the local church to expand the kingdom through disciple making in Southeast Texas.
