God created each of us with a need for family, community, and friendship. When people connect, it fills needs, builds character, expands perspective, and encourages stability. Plus, it is just more fun doing life together. We believe God has designed our journey through life to go better together!

Grace Group - Tuesday Evenings
A support group/study for those struggling with mental issues, that will help you live the life God intended for you. Materials used are provided by Grace Alliance where they incorporate “innovative biblical truths, scientific research, and practical tools” to help us reach a stable emotional balance. According to research 1 in 4 Americans suffers from a mental health disorder such as anxiety, panic, depression, OCD, or substance use. Stigma is a thing of the past; many are now coming forward and getting the help they need to live healthy productive lives. The group will meet every other week beginning Jan 18 at 6 pm in room 202/204. For more information contact Randy Adams at randy.adams@parksidechristian.com
