Baby Dedication - Nov 8th

We will be having a baby dedication on Sunday, November 8th at our 10:30am service. If you have a child you would like to have dedicated, or if you are interested about what this means for you and your child and want to learn more, please sign up in the Resource Room by October 11th.

POSTPONED - Best Care Workshop

Due to Saturday mornings being a difficult time for many people to make it to an event, we are postponing the Best Care Workshop (originally planned for Sept 26th) and thinking through the best ways for Dan to share his wealth of knowledge with us about caring for others.

Membership & Serving Forms

Through the month of September, we will have 2 separate forms available that we want you to consider filling out. One is our Membership Commitments Form to be completed if you would like to be a member at Southside for the coming year. The second is our Southsiders Serving Others form for all that call Southside home. We appreciate your attention to these logistical pieces that help us stay organized! You can turn completed forms in at the Welcome Desk in the lobby.

Annual Congregational Meeting

October 14th, 7:00-8:30pm

Southside is growing up – we’re in our "childhood” stage as a church (we’ll be 8 years old in November!). There are certain predictable opportunities and challenges that come with this stage, and we’d like to get ahead of them. At our first annual Congregational Meeting, we’ll cover a lot! Why we planted a church in Wooster. Where we’ve come from as a church. Where we’re headed. What we feel needs some attention. Clarity is kindness – and we pray this meeting will provide plenty of clarity. We’ll even throw in a vote for some changes we’d like to make in our bylaws. (We’ll make sure you get a copy of those before the meeting.) It will be an important meeting, a time to renew our vision of what it means to be a vibrant community of disciples, lovingly connected to the vine, and to one another through Christ. We hope you’ll consider making it a priority in your calendar.

Join the Prayer Chain

If you would like to join us in prayer and receive prayer requests we have from the congregation, talk to Janelle Richey or email her at janelle@southsidewooster.com.

Wish List

We have an Amazon wish list that we update periodically with current needs as an option to serve Southside for those who are looking for small sporadic opportunities. Purchasing items from this list helps to make our Sunday morning gatherings thrive - anything from diapers for the nursery, to snacks for our Kids Ministry, to basic cleaning supplies. You can view the list here.
