Food Pantry: Thank you for your generous donations! With your help, we have been able to serve many families in our community. We are currently in need of stuffing, pancake mix, peanut butter, spaghetti sauce, cereal, tuna, mashed potatoes, canned vegetables, and soup.

Associate Pastor Search Committee Candidate Selection: The South End Baptist Church Search Committee is excited to announce the unanimous selection of a candidate for the position of Associate Pastor. Over the past several weeks, we have become convicted of God’s direction in selecting Christian Kolthoff.
Christian hails from Sanford, NC and is originally from Puerto Rico. He is currently a high school bible teacher at a Christian school in North Carolina. He is 32 years old and holds a Doctorate of Ministry degree in Theology and Apologetics from Liberty University. His previous ministry experience with families and youth demonstrates his devotion to evangelism and discipleship.
We have invited Christian to South End during the week of July 7, with the following events planned:
 - He will be able to see first-hand our Awana High Power Soccer Camp.
 - We will hold a special called business meeting on Saturday, July 12 (time TBD) for a member Q&A with Christian Kolthoff, and to vote on a motion to change the 2025 budget to remove the Youth Director compensation and add Associate Pastor compensation. Will will have a meet and greet fellowship afterwards.
 - Christian will preach on Sunday morning, July 13. Immediately following that service, we will hold a special called business meeting for SEBC members to vote to approve the committee's recommendation.
Prior to this time, we will make both Christian’s biography as well as his formal Covenant Agreement available to the congregation. We are confident that you will find Christian a welcomed addition to South End!
