Over the next month or two, Valley Christian School (VCS) will relocate their high school classes to Parkside while they wrap up the installation of four modular classrooms on their campus. School starts on Tuesday, September 6th so don't be surprised to see a bunch of students around the building during school hours. VCS is grateful to the Parkside family for opening our doors and we're happy to host. Rental revenue will be directed to offset increased janitorial, utilities, and general operations. In case this feels like deja vu, Parkside was home to VCS a couple years ago during their first construction project on their new campus. Please pray for students and teachers as they had back for another year of learning and growing in the knowledge of all that God has created and knowledge of God.

Others gathered in the prayer room to participate in God's call to see His will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven. Chad and team led us in worship through song. Ron gave a recap of his trip to South Korea. Catherine brought a clarifying and mobilizing message from Revelation 2:1-7. You can listen to the sermon here. She extended Jesus' invitation to remember the love we had at first for Christ, to repent of how far we've fallen, and to do again the things we did when we were first in love with Jesus. We hope this week and the weeks to come will be a thrill as [...]

After seven years of failed attempts, Pastor Clint took home the "Golden Crock-Pot" at Sunday's Seventh Annual Chili Cook-off. "I'd like to thank my mom for setting a high culinary bar, my kids for their criticism of sub-par meals, and the parishioners of Parkside for their gift of discernment." Clint stated on his facebook account. 17 chili's battled it out for supremacy. All were delicious which meant the judges had their work cut out for them. Thank you to the contestants. Thank you to Intern, Jesse Tulman, and his team of hard working servants for putting on the event. Thank you to Maureen and Merna for baking corn bread. Thank you to Brittney for creating the Mexican decor theme. Next Sunday, August 21st, is our last Summer Sunday and it's your chance to get in another water fight. We're also [...]
