Several months ago, I gave you an update on how well our church was doing this year.  Almost four months later, I thought I’d give you another update. 

• 219 people have decided to make Southside their church home (with almost 80% of them coming from an unchurched background!)
• 93 individuals have surrendered their lives to Christ
• 96 new followers of Jesus have been baptized

On top of that, we’ just had our best July ever in terms of attendance.  We’ve been pushing 2,000 people every Sunday, and that just doesn’t usually happen in the summer. 

Anyway, God continues to be good to our church and lives continue to be changed. 

But we’re not satisfied.  Not even a little.  And while I hope that you’ll rejoice over these numbers with me, I hope more than ever that you’ll join us in loving God, loving people, and loving the world on the journey to life change.
