The Houston faith community is mourning the loss of one of its most beloved leaders, Pastor James E. Nash. A pillar of leadership and service in the Sunnyside neighborhood, Pastor Nash passed away earlier this month at the age of 87.
On Saturday, November 8th, family, friends, long-time congregation members, and community leaders gathered to honor his life and legacy at a heartfelt funeral service at Mt. Hebron Missionary Baptist Church.
For more than 40 years, Pastor Nash led St. Paul Missionary Baptist Church, expanding its outreach and solidifying its role as a cornerstone in the Sunnyside community. His vision was clear: uplift the lives of others, particularly through programs focused on youth support and family services.
Under his leadership, the church became a beacon of hope.
