Bordersville Community Ministry

  • Bordersville Senior Center 19301 Hightower Lane Humble, TX, 77338 (map)

Bordersville, a predominantly African American community, is located off FM 1960, less than a half mile northeast of the airport. The Bordersville community has a lengthy history dating back to 1927.

In 1965 Houston annexed the community, then considered the worst pocket of poverty in the city, characterized by dilapidated houses and a lack of paved streets, running water, and sewers. Though residents were expected to pay city taxes, no provision was made for city utilities. In 1974 a community center, the Three H Service Center (standing for Houston, Humble, and Harris County, since it served people within a twenty-mile radius) was built with the help of a grant from the federal Economic Development Administration of the Department of Commerce.

Today, through the sharing of a meal and the laughter of games, we are building friendships with the community of Bordersville senior center. All are invited to be a part of this monthly ministry - meeting the first Thursday of each month at 10:30am.
