Our Values at Parkside are: Proclaiming Grace, Extending Hospitality, Loving Boldly, and Cultivating Community. Without you, and God at work through you, these would remain just words on a page. We invite those who are able, to consider a gift towards one of the items from our Christmas in July List. You need not feel like you must cover the total cost of an item, but are welcome to contribute any amount. We give thanks to God for all the ways you make ministry happen. May God Bless You! -Pastor Jeremiah
