Let's face it...Parkside is a big church. With almost 3,000 people attending Sunday services, it's easy to feel a little lost in the crowd. How can you make a big place feel smaller? It's easy! Join a smaller group! As we look toward Building into the Next Generation, we believe that developing solid, Christ-centered relationships is an essential building block for growing Parkside's church family.
As fall approaches, our ministries are ready to get back into full swing. We invite you to check one out that's right for you! Here's a quick look at a few of our groups:
Men's Ministry: Journeymen
When: Mondays, 7-9pm; Thursdays, 6:30-7:30am
Where: Parkside Church
Description: Most men face the constant, daily pressures of work and increasingly demanding travel schedules. Very often, the negative impact of our work lives is felt at the level of our families and our personal relationships with God. The result is often isolation – from the Lord, from our families, and from other Christians. Our Journeymen ministry exists to address these challenges as we look to the Bible.
Women's Ministry: Essence
When: Tuesdays, 7-9pm; Thursdays, 9:30-11:30am (childcare offered)
Where: Parkside Church
Description: The desire of our ministry to women is to equip them through the instruction of the Word of God to live in such a way that they bring Him glory in their relationships at home, at work, in the community and in the church. Our weekly bible studies, special events, and retreat weekends are essential tools in helping us reach our goal.
Sunday Morning LIFE Groups
When: Sundays, 9:45am & 11:15am
Where: Parkside Church
Description: Our Sunday morning groups are an opportunity to learn and fellowship together with a smaller group of people from various life stages. Each group is taught by a member of our leadership team.
Mid-Week LIFE Groups
When/Where: click here for times and locations
Description: Here at Parkside, we recognize the need to make a big place a little smaller and the importance of people connecting with one another to foster gospel relationships for gospel growth. For this reason, we have small groups that meet in local homes mid-week twice a month to study the Bible, to pray and to fellowship together.
College Ministry: Standpoint
When: Sundays, 11:15am, large group; 1st & 3rd Thursdays, 7:00 pm
Where: Parkside Church
Description: We desire to grow in Christ through consistent study of God’s Word in a relaxed, informal environment. Our weekly, Sunday morning class and mid-week gender specific LIFE Groups include a warm atmosphere of genuine community, sound Biblical teaching, voluntary small group prayer, and large group singing.
Young Adults Ministry: :transit:
When: Wednesdays, 7:30pm
Where: The Loft, 31200 Solon Rd., Solon, OH

Singles: TrueLife
When: Fridays, 7:30pm
Where: Parkside Church
Description: TrueLife is a singles ministry for those 35 and older. We desire to equip singles through the instruction of the Word of God to live in such a way that they bring Him glory in their relationships at work, at church, in the community, and where they live. TrueLife is designed to create a relaxed, secure environment for all singles to grow in Christ dependently, grow with each other relationally, integrate into Parkside Church holistically, and serve the community practically.
