About us
Nestled on the outskirts of the small town of Kaufman, Texas, 5 Acre Baptist Church is focused on caring for both church and community members. And with close to 20,000 people living within 5 minutes of this church in every direction that is a monumental task. But worth the effort! It is our hope that you will feel encouraged and challenged by all facets of our many ministries
our LEADER:
Bro. Mark is a native of Hughes Springs, Texas. He attended Texas Baptist Institute and Seminary. He resides in Terrell, Texas with his wife of 20+ years and his four miracle children.
​
Called to the ministry at the age of 31, Mark spent 6 years as an evangelist, and for the past 10 years has served as pastor here at 5 Acre Baptist, formerly known as Hillcrest.
​
My vision for 5 Acre Baptist Church is that we accomplish both evangelism and discipleship, not one or the other.
