PRAY FOR MYANMAR

In addition to the pandemic there is an ongoing crisis in Myanmar. Their national military led a coup after an election and has been using extreme violence in an effort to silence peaceful protestors. This has led to many devastating things in the lives of the people living there including a food shortage. Watch a Global News clip from March 4, 2021 to get caught up (graphic content): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2Qs7IfepBw In addition to praying for peace, you may be able to help give to relief efforts.

WELCOME, HANNAH!

Parkside Family, Please join me in praising God for an answer to prayer. Please join me in welcoming Hannah Lambert to a new position in our church family as our Youth Ministry Director. A couple months ago, Hannah was working at her job catching chickens when visions for the future of our youth began to well up within. In those visions she saw herself leading our youth in the things of God. Yet just as quickly as God dropped these dreams in her heart, she dismissed them with the thought, “That will never happen, I’m not leading youth.” The next day, Chris Kim announced to the youth leaders that he was resigning. After discussions and prayer with our Pastors, Elders, Council and youth leaders, we believe the right ordering of our church family is to appoint Hannah to [...]

MRS. KIM IS RETIRING

Dear Parkside, Diane Kim is retiring from leading our Children’s Ministry. 25 years ago, the Kim family helped plant our church and Diane has been serving our kids just about every single week since. Wow! Diane’s love and commitment to our church and children are unparalleled. Her sacrifice and investment have produced in many of our lives a deeper love for Jesus and His kids. Well done! What started out with just a few kids grew (pre-covid) to empowering 30 volunteers ministering to an average of 60 children each week. On Tuesday, September 29th at our "Tuesday Night Live Campfire" service we are going to honour Diane and distribute the video via our Campfire and Online services. We are also planning a special kids event on Saturday, October 31st (1-3pm) where kids can have some fun and thank [...]

CAMPFIRE CHURCH

What is it? During this season of COVID we're gathering for a weekly service in smaller groups in homes, backyards and at the church building. Each Campfire service is led by a Parkside host and includes a mix of in-person ministry and Parkside video (i.e. worship and the message). Why? We're doing this so that EVERY Parksider can gather in-person EVERY week. Because when we gather and yield our lives to Jesus, His Word, and Spirit in living in us and one another, we grow in our faith, hope and love! And that glorifies God! How? Each week we'll publish an updated listing of Campfire churches. We'd like you to "request to join" a specific Campfire that you and your household can attend each week. Most Campfires are sign-up once and you're good to attend that same [...]

PROVIDING SHOWERS & MORE

FROM HOPE CENTRAL: New Pilot Program in the Works! In partnership with Mission Community Services, and other providers who serve our homeless population, Hope Central will be offering a new service by providing showers, grooming and an opportunity to have clean clothes. By providing this “hand up” service we will be helping our community struggling with homelessness to find dignity and hope, and remove some of the obstacles that get in the way of them applying for jobs, housing assistance and even medical care. Early November is when we would like to start offering this service. Haven in the Hollow (Mission’s Emergency Shelter) will be providing the space and Hope Central will be providing supplies and volunteers. If you would like to get involved by volunteering, donating supplies or funds we would greatly appreciate it. Volunteers are needed [...]
