I WANT TO SERVE

Connection and Discipleship Ministries helps adults across all of our campuses to connect to a service, grow in a Southside group, serve in a ministry or mission area, and reach others for Christ by telling their personal story of God’s work in their life.

Southside Kids is the children’s ministry of Southside Church (birth – grade 5). Our children’s Sunday services are held in captivating environments and filled with worship songs, crafts, and great Bible stories that teach God’s Word at an age-appropriate level.

Southside Youth & Young Adult Ministry is a movement of middle and high school students, and young adults who are learning what it means to love others with Jesus' love. We welcome everyone, especially those looking for authentic friendships, a place to explore/grow in your faith, and a supportive community in which to live out your faith. Our ultimate goal is to reflect Jesus to our community and world.

If you feel called to lead others in worship through song, music, acting, or as a multi-media operator then Southside Church worship ministry maybe a place for you to serve. We understand the vital role of worship in believers' connection to God and take joy in creating invitations to experience His presence.

This ministry is responding to a clear message from God to go and help the families in this specific community with food, clothing, and spiritual guidance. Click here to learn more.

Do you have a compassionate heart? Do you like to minister to people who are going through a difficult time? The Congregational Care ministry visits people in the hospital and care facilities, reaches out to our shut-ins, and sends encouragement to those who are hurting. If care and compassion are your gifts, consider joining the Congregational Care ministry.

Are you cheerful and love people?
The Guest Services Team may be for you! Each Sunday there are opportunities to greet people in the parking lot and at the doors, get to know new guests, make sure the coffee is ready, and receive the offering. This is a great place to start serving, since the time commitment is small, but the impact is great!

Every fifth Sunday we have a team of volunteers go to Lucy Corr Nursing Home to provide a program for the residents. If you enjoy working with the elderly, or can provide music or a message on a Sunday afternoon, we would love for you to join this ministry!
