We have an attended nursery for small children during morning worship periods in room 2. We also have a training room at the rear of the auditorium where parents can stay with their little ones while worshiping.
Free CD’s of the Sunday morning sermons are available from Joel Ribar. Be sure to specify the date desired. MP3 copies of sermons are also available at the church web site.
Southside is in its periodic song copy reporting period with CCLI. ANY copy of a song made during the reporting period needs to be reported to Cliff Copass for reporting to CCLI. We need the song title, author(s), number of copies, purpose of copies, and any other obvious identifying information for the songs. This does NOT cost anything extra, but keeps us in compliance with copyright law.
Life Group leaders; please contact the church office to update your current studies on the information Board.
When planning events, don’t forget to check the calendar in the back hallway by room 9 for conflicts and enter your own events. This is for events that involve use of the building and/or for a majority of the congregation.
