Southside Garden
We’re starting a community garden this year, here on our property, and it will hold much more value than simply the fruit it bears. Greg created a few videos sharing the vision of this garden, highlighting it as a tool for spiritual growth, especially for our kids at Southside. (Check out the first one here - you don't need to have a Facebook profile to watch!)
Stephanie Grenert is leading a small team preparing the ground and maintaining the garden. If you are willing to be a helper at any point in the process, please email her at stephanie.grenert@gmail.com.
If you feel led to make a donation towards the start up costs, which include a rain collection system and deer fence, you can give directly towards our “Community Garden” fund online here.
Summer Read
Greg is introducing a new reading practice for Southside this summer. We are all invited to read the book, Ordinary, by Michael Horton. There will be a very limited number of books available in our Resource Room this Sunday (first come, first serve), so feel free to purchase your own copy here on Amazon.
This is another way we are praying that God would grow and mature us as a community of disciples of Jesus!
You can find our reading schedule for the summer here.
Flowers & Fellowship
Ladies, come get creative and connect! Join us as we slow down, create beauty with flowers, and enjoy sweet fellowship and light refreshments. Bring a small container or vase from home to fill with a few fresh blooms. Feel free to get creative on what you bring! Flowers will be provided, but if you happen to have a garden ripe for cutting, you’re welcome to bring your own cut flowers as well. Please sign up in the Resource Room!
Save Your Change
In August, we’ll be participating in a baby bottle drive to raise funds for the Pregnancy Care Center in Wooster. We wanted to give a heads up now so you have time to save your loose change to fill some baby bottles in a couple months!
Summer Baptism Picnic
Our annual Baptism Sunday will be at Pine Lake Event Center again this year! Mark your calendars for July 12th for one service at 10:30am and keep an eye out for more details. If you are interested in being baptized, please reach out to Greg in person or email him at greg@southsidewooster.com .
