A Note from the Church Board

Dear Southside Family,

God is good! He is at work in ways we can see and many more ways that we cannot. This year has been a year of seeing God at work and the surprises where we hadn’t recognized him at work until the answer was long passed.

As we reflect on the past church year, we are celebrating all the ways God has been at work through your ministry participation and your sacrificial financial giving through Southside Church. Because of you, the many ministries we have are able to reach into our community. In this Annual Report, you will see some of the highlights from the year; know these are just a few of the many celebration points. Throughout our worship services, we celebrate the ways we see God at work. Join with us as a church board in praise as you read these stories, celebrating God’s goodness and the ways He allows us to join in on the work He is doing.

Starting the 4th quarter of the fiscal year in January, we spent a week of Audacious Prayer at 6am each day. Out of that week of prayer, we spent 40 days praying Audacious Prayers, asking God to work in us and through us. We have continued with this posture of prayer, spending each Thursday morning joining together as the Body of Christ at Southside Church in times of prayer. You wrote 2 names on a card and placed it on our prayer walls during the 40 days leading up to Easter. We joined together and prayed over these envelopes, asking God to move in the lives of each of the people written on the card. There have been many celebrations of how God is working in the lives of those you are praying for. Keep praying. Keep trusting.

As we wrap up the 2022-23 fiscal year, we are celebrating all God has done and looking forward to the ways He will work in this next year. It has encouraged and challenged us to see God’s people crying out to Him in prayer for our families, community, and world. Let’s continue to seek to fulfill His plan for Southside Church.
