Today is First Sunday First Fruits. Tables are set up in room 4.
Happy Independence Day!
Today, about 5 minutes after the worship, we are planning 15 minutes of prayer in the fellowship room for Southside.
Sunday morning Class and Worship is now held in person as well as live-streamed. You are welcome to join us! At Southside, we will allow 100% capacity without mask requirements in the auditorium but suggest you continue to follow CDC recommendations in regards to vaccinated and unvaccinated people. If you wish to remain masked and distanced from others, the fellowship room is set up to allow this. Please do not enter the fellowship room without a mask. Of course, if you are ill or have had recent contact with someone who is ill, please stay home. There is no evening worship at this time.
