Come befo

Our Ministries

WHAT WE BELIEVE

STATEMENT OF FAITH

We believe the Bible to be the inspired and only infallible written Word of God.

We believe that there is One God, eternally existent in three Persons; God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.

We believe in the Blessed Hope, which is the rapture of the Church of God, which is in Christ at His return.

We believe that the only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance, faith in the precious Blood of Jesus Christ, and being baptized in water.

We believe that regeneration by the Holy Ghost is essential for personal salvation.

We believe that the redemptive work of Christ on the Cross provides healing for the human body in answer to believing in prayer.

We believe that baptism in the Holy Ghost, according to Acts 2:4, is given to believers who ask for it.


We believe in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling, the Christian is enabled to live a Holy and separated life in this present world, Amen.

  • How Simon's Memorial Church started?

    In the year of our Lord 1935, there was not a “Holiness” church in the old section of Silsbee, Texas. This led a group of women to join together and start having church in the Masonic Hall on First Street. By the grace of God and the tireless work of this small group of saints, they raised enough money to buy a small lot and later construct a one-room building on 530 North 1st Street Silsbee, TX.
