Community Involvement
Community Involvement
Community Involvement is Parkside’s effort to go outside the walls of the church building and into the community. We desire to see the people who make up Parkside Church mobilized and involved in their communities for the sake of the gospel. Therefore, we want to hold or participate in events and make strategic partnerships in the communities where Parkside Church is represented by her members and attenders. These events and partnerships will provide opportunities to engage with individuals and the community at large in ways that promote the gospel.

Outreach Opportunity with International Friendships, Inc.
Dinner party, anyone? International Friendships, Inc. (IFI) is a ministry devoted to welcoming international students to Cleveland with the love of Christ. Many internationals studying at Cleveland area universities are never invited into an American home. IFI is organizing a progressive dinner event on Saturday, October 21st to offer a taste of local hospitality.
Hosting involves welcoming one or two carloads of students to your home for a portion of their evening (i.e. appetizer/salad or entree/dessert). Students are accompanied by an IFI volunteer who functions as their driver and guide throughout the experience.
If you are interested in making space at your dinner table on October 21 to welcome students, please contact Jonathan at j.putnam@ifiusa.org or use this form.
