Baptist Student Ministry
Mission Statement
The mission of Baptist Student Ministry (BSM) is a Spirit-led student movement dedicated to sharing our lives and the truth of Jesus across our campus and the world while discipling every student to reach their full potential in Christ. We believe God will use the BSM to reach the campus for Christ and be a strategic launching pad of fully committed followers of Jesus, ready & equipped to fulfill the Great Commission—no matter their vocation.
BSM is a ministry of Texas Baptist Churches that encourages students to follow Christ and transform the world.

BSM Events
Howdy Party
Our first event of the semester is the BSM Howdy Party. This event usually takes place on the first Tuesday evening of the fall semester and is located on the Anderson Lawn. This is a great chance to meet new people and our BSM Leadership team. Join us for a time of fun and learning more information about how to get connected with BSM and our goal as a ministry.
BSM United
Once a month on a Wednesday, we have a gathering for all HSU that includes worship, preaching the word, and an after-party (with food). This is called BSM United. It takes place at 8:00 pm in Woodward-Dellis.
Firm Foundations
A 6-week discipleship training at the beginning of the fall semester for everyone. It's designed to build Christ-centered community, strengthen your faith, and help you reach your full potential in Christ.
Community Groups
Discipleship Groups are weekly gatherings held across campus after Gateway. Each Discipleship Group consists of 2-3 BSM leaders who lead a Bible study and help their fellow HSU students grow in their faith.
BSM Missions
Campus Outreach and Local Mission Projects
The BSM can often be seen around campus connecting with students. We love to share Christ with all students and open up avenues for spiritual conversation. We also serve the community by participating in several local mission projects throughout each semester in partnership with other groups on campus.
Beach Reach
Each Spring Break the BSM participates in Beach Reach at South Padre Island, Texas with other BSM groups from schools all across Texas. We give free van rides, serve the community, and talk about Christ with college students from all over the United States who have come for Spring Break. If you are interested in participating this year, contact the BSM office.
Go Now Missions
We partner with Go Now Missions, a ministry of Texas Baptists, to send HSU students all over the world. All trip participants are college students from around Texas and opportunities are endless including Christmas Break projects, 10-week summer projects, 2-week impact teams, full semesters service abroad, and much more! We encourage all students to pray about the unique opportunity college provides for you to experience what God is doing around the world.
