Offering for New Chairs

Our current burgundy chairs -- that make brides shudder -- are riddled with broken welds, mismatched fabrics, protruding screws, worn padding, rips, and 40 years of butt dust. They’ve served us well. But have you ever considered who paid for the chair that supports you each week? Odds are most of our chairs were paid for by men and women of faith who have since graduated to Heaven! With eyes of faith, they gave and invested in both their own discipleship and the discipleship of those who would follow. Each week our chairs are used by men and women to hear the Gospel and grow in faith and family -- through Sunday mornings, Celebrate Recovery, Set Free! Retreats, Christmas Dessert Nights, and more! Our Church Council has set this year as the year to retire our [...]

Home from College

Home from College: Reconnecting With Your Young Adult at Christmas By Amanda Salmon This Christmas was our first time having a child return home from college. I did not give much thought to what this might require other than making lots of plans to do Christmas activities like usual for our family. I very quickly found myself living in a place of disappointment because things were not happening as I expected. I thought I was prepared since I checked in with her a couple of weeks before her return about what activities she’d like to join (i.e. our family tradition of decorating a Christmas tree followed by watching a Christmas movie), but I’m learning again that things don’t always go according to plan. In anticipation of her arrival, my younger daughter and I found three [...]

Christmas at Parkside

We often refer to Christmas as the ‘advent’ season since we reflect on the arrival of our Messiah nearly 2,000 years ago! We have a number of opportunities to reflect and celebrate the birth of Christ: Advent Devotional: Draw close to God each day during this season. Pick-up an Advent devotional ($15 from the Welcome Desk). Four Sundays of Advent: Starting December 3rd, we’ll count down the weeks to Christmas looking at the gift of Jesus each week through a different lens. We’ll also introduce an advent wreath and light a new candle each week to represent the light of Christ coming into a dark world. Finally, each service will include a Parkside testimony of what Jesus has meant in their life. Kids Christmas Presentation: In our December 17th service, our Mini Bears, Grade K-3 and Grade 4-6 [...]
