As I
have previously expressed to you in
recent years, the Lord has shown me
that one of the primary tasks that
He has assigned to me at this point
in my ministry is to remind the
members of this church, as being a
part of the family of God, of
the great Heritage we have
received from Him and of the
Legacy He has intended for us to
leave to those who will follow us in
this ministry someday.
Please
join us as The Lord continues to
lead and bless this work to and for
His Glory. Be faithful in your
attendance and encourage others to
make the same commitments to the
Lord's work here at Southside.
We are 'gearing up' for this year
when we begin our celebration of a
true "Year of Jubilee"!
We are anticipating and praying for
Revival and for the greatest harvest
of souls we've ever seen in the 50
year history of the church here.
"To God be all the Glory,
Honor, and Praise for the Great
Things He has done and will do!"

Outreach
Ministry and Mission opportunities:
Each month we as a church
help to support missionaries in
Honduras and Zambia, as well as
the Servant's Heart Ministry, a local food
ministry and Life Without Limbs
Ministry. This year we
added "Child
Evangelism Fellowship" to the ministries we
support.
Child
Evangelism Fellowship (CEF) is an
organization that is reaching
elementary school age children with
the Gospel through after school
and summer Bible Clubs.
Nick
Vujicic, founder of "Life Without
Limbs", has a unique testimony.
Nick was born without arms or legs,
but that hasn't stopped him from
fulfilling the Great Commission by
spreading the Gospel throughout the
world. To learn more about
this outreach visit their website at
www.lifewithoutlimbs.org .
The Beckhams serve as
missionaries in Honduras with the
"Loving the Least of These Ministry". They
have a school for children who
otherwise would be unable to get
an education. You can sponsor
a child for $30.00 per month. If you
would like to make this commitment
or any other contribution please
visit their website at
www.lovingtheleastofthese.org
for more information.
Elizabeth Ratliff
is
a missionary to the people of
Zambia. She is so grateful
for
everything we have sent to her
and her fellow missionaries in
addition to her financial support.
The food items and other things
we send are impossible to get where
she is. Suggested items for
Elizabeth are: Splenda,
sugar-free jello, soft tortilla
wraps, sugar-free gum, nuts,
raisins, dry beans, and zip lock
gallon size freezer bags.
Please
check the more detailed list posted
on her box or see Lori
Sunday with any questions.
We also
collect food items for Servant's Heart. Each Saturday
two to four people from Southside
assist Servant's Heart by packing
and delivering boxes of groceries to
single mothers who are in need.
The MOST
needed items are
bathroom
tissue and powdered
milk (packages with
individual pouches are best).
Canned goods and nonperishable items
are also needed.
If you would like to participate in
packing boxes or delivering them,
please see Lori Sunday. We
are now also
collecting "Coins for
Chickens" in a container in the
vestibule. Your pocket change
can make a difference. This
money goes to buy chickens to be
delivered with the boxes of food.
If you
would like to contribute to our Food
Ministries there are boxes set
up for donations in the room by the
sanctuary foyer. Any of the
items listed above are appreciated.
