Northside Parking Team Assistants Needed: Northside desires to make a positive first impression by providing a team of enthusiastic volunteers that welcome our members and guests. One way we do this is by helping to provide efficient traffic flow as folks arrive and exit. This is an area that has a GREAT need for additional volunteers. Initially, many people signed up as volunteers, but unfortunately we currently have just 3 men that serve in this area. These men are very faithful and serve each and every Sunday morning before and after both services. (Wow, what dedication!) Now, we are asking for some other folks to help them outwont you please consider serving? To sign up or to get more information please call Nancy at 796-9786. Volunteers Needed Northside Caf We have our own Northside Caf coffee that is roasted weekly right here in South Carolina and then ground and brewed in our caf. We also have baked goods to enjoy. This is the perfect place to meet or bring a friend that you have invited to church. If you have an interest in serving in our Caf Ministry, please contact Tony Lindner at 843-3245392 or 951-9343. Operation Christmas Child Operation Christmas Child is coming early this year! We are having Christmas in July!
