Share Our Mission
Our Worship
The mission of Parkside Lutheran Church is to carry forward the spirit of Christ. His wisdom and commands are the guidelines that govern our daily efforts. His love, grace and eternal life are our rewards. Being nurtured by his gifts, we are then empowered to share these gifts with others.
Our worship is structured according to the church's ancient pattern of
inviting God's baptized people to gather to hear God's Word, to share
God's meal of Holy Communion and to be sent out into the world to share the good news of God's love with others.
Our Community
Our community life is anchored in worship, strengthened by educational and fellowship activities, and expressed through ministries
of love within and beyond the congregation. The good news about Jesus is at the center of who we are and what we do.
