New Series Starts Sunday October 20
| |
 Peter, please write soon. We don't fit in out here. The people we rub shoulders with remind us in a thousand ways every day that we're different. We're marginalized, mocked, and dismissed as out of step with culture. We know there is a purpose for being here, but we long for home. We are a strangers in a strange land... exiles. We're hoping you can help. [Series beginning October 20]

Adult Ministries

Journey 2nd Hour Sunday School Class - Sunday 10:45am
What does wisdom mean to you? Does being at the top of Life's heap mean you have mastered it? Wisdom certainly helps you deal with people, make friends, succeed at work & career, seem successful but yet, it is much more than knowledge alone. It entails understanding God's definition of true wisdom and the resulting actions. This wisdom is counter to what the world applauds and values. Come and join us as we study the Book of Proverbs in our Adult Sunday School Class through the months of Oct. to Dec.

 Wonderland Parent Open House - October 20
We at South Park Church are committed to partnering with parents to help them raise spiritual champions. We want to share with you how we plan to partner with you and so we strongly urge you to consider attending our Wonderland Parent Open House on October 20, during both services. Instead of dropping off your child at Wonderland, plan on staying and attending with them to experience Sunday mornings through your child's eyes! Meet your child's leaders as well as experience worship and teaching. Parents will then be dismissed to meet to talk through some important information as well as do a brief Q & A session with Pastor Kal. Refreshments will be served.
