Sunny Side's Leadership Team
Pastor Horace Allison
On March 15, 2020, Horace Allison was elected as Pastor of Sunny Side Missionary Baptist Church. He accepted his calling into ministry over several years ago under the leadership of the previous pastor, Reverend Albert Louis Pinkney. He received his formal training from the late Pastor, Reverend Horace C. Allison, Sr., and Reverend Doctor Richard Jewell Rose. He also holds a Bachelors of Arts in Theology from the Oikodome School of Biblical Studies. He is married to Sister Patsy Allison, and he is the father of Christopher Dickerson and Terrence Allison.
Assistant Pastor Darren Keith Jones
Keith Jones has been involved with Sunny Side for over 40 years! Keith was first involved in the Youth Choir, Youth Ushers, and held the position of Sunday School Youth Superintendent. He accepted his call to ministry on June 15, 1999, and delivered his first sermon three months later. Keith holds a Bachelor's of Science in psychology from Sam Houston State University, and he enjoys teaching our Sunday School classes, Vacation Bible School classes, and Church Congress classes.
Pastor Emeritus Albert Pinkney
In 2009, Albert Pinkney was elected as Pastor of Sunny Side Missionary Baptist Church. He accepted his calling into ministry several years ago under the leadership of the previous pastor, Reverend Elbert Randolph Curvey. He received his formal training from Reverend Doctor Richard Jewell Rose with an Honorary Bachelors of Arts in Theology from the Oikodome School of Biblical Studies. As severe health issues began to take place, Albert Pinkney decided to step down as Pastor, and the church decided to appoint a new leader for Sunny Side Missionary Baptist Church.
Reverend Marx Warren
Associate Minister
Marx Warren is one of the newest additions to Sunny Side Missionary Baptist Church. Marx became a licensed minister in March 1996 at Rock of Ages Missionary Baptist Church in Fallon, NV, and he became an ordained minister in September 2011 at the Church of the Living God in Houston, TX. Marx received a Bachelors of Arts in Information Technology in 2008 at the American Intercontinental University and has received various certificates from the College of Bible Studies. Marx's passion is exemplified by 2 Timothy 3:16-17 and Ephesians 4:12-14, and Marx believes that all scripture is applicable to all aspects of our lives, down to our very existence, like how we think, how we are justified in our relationship with God, and how we live our lives to the fullest in Jesus Christ. Marx believes all scripture proves 3 basic affirmations regarding our faith, including (1) our view and understanding of who God is and what He proves (ie. love, forgiveness, salvation, etc.), (2) our view and understanding of our individual interaction with God in action (ie. thoughts, desires, and intent), and (3) and our expression of love, admiration, humility, and appreciation toward God and those we interact with around us.
