Missions Month
It has been a long-held tradition for South Church to hold a Mission Conference in mid-October to uplift the Lord’s work and connect our people with local and global missions. This year has brought numerous challenges, but we still want to celebrate what God is doing around the globe in spreading the Gospel. Mission Conference Week has now become Missions Month There are several opportunities to connect with a missionary during the month, but we also encourage you to connect with a missionary on your own!
Keynote Speaker, Paul Borthwick, will be speaking during the morning (9:30 am and 11:15 am) and evening (6:00 pm) services on Sunday, October 4, through video.
