Smaller Group Roundup 2011: One Size Does Not Fit All

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!

Book Recommendation: The Next Story

Even the least technical among us are being pressed from all sides by advances in digital technology. We rely upon computers, cell phones, and the Internet for communication, commerce, and entertainment. Yet even though we live in this ‘instant message’ culture, many of us feel disconnected, and we question if all this technology is really good for our souls.

Location: The Auditorium
Start Time: Mon 29, Aug. 2011, 10 p.m.
End Time: Mon 29, Aug. 2011, 11:30 p.m.

Where were you?

At 8:45 in the morning, George Sleigh was on the phone preparing for an afternoon meeting when he heard a loud roar. As he spun around in his chair, he saw a passenger jet just outside his office window and exclaimed, "Man, that guy's low!" In an instant, the hijacked plane slammed into the north tower of the World Trade Center just a few floors above.
