Update on Important Administrative Change

We are thankful for the individuals, families, and churches that pray regularly and give financially so that we can bring the love of Christ to those we are called to serve. We are also thankful for the talented people who create administrative systems that handle our donations and finances so that we can be efficient and that our donors have confidence in the process.
Emily and Trent McEntyre, 2014.

What is the admin change?
Starting September 1st, 2014, we are receiving a sort of administrative upgrade that will make our ministry more efficient for us and our donors. The national mission support agency, Mission to North America, will now be receiving our donations and sending receipts to our donors. Based in Atlanta, Mission to North America (or MNA) has a great team of staff, excellent secure websites, and also offers services for special types of giving like stocks. MNA does not charge us for these services! 100% of the funds receive goes to the Parkside Mission.

What do I need to do? 
If you are a current donor, you need to send your donations to our new account by September 1st. You can give either online or by mail. Visit the "Giving to the Parkside Mission" page on this website for the details.

If you are a current donor and give online through City Church Eastside, then you need to visit the City Church E-give site (click here) and cancel your recurring gift.

If you are a new or prospective donor, it has never been easier or more strategic to partner with our ministry with financial gifts. All gifts are tax deductible and donors receive regular updates from our ministry and receipts for their gifts.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Grace,

Trent and Emily McEntyre
Parkside Mission

New resources for ministry

Parkside Journals and  Parkside Mission INC Parkside Journals is the new website for Emily's ongoing development of resources to help you connect neighbors to a better knowledge of God and his word.  The heartbeat of our mission remains the same, bringing the truth and love of Christ to neighborhoods through creating resources and training leaders. Much of this ministry is done in partnership with the church planting mission, Dunwoody Presbyterian Church. Parkside Mission is funded completely by the donations of individuals and churches that partner with this ministry. Thanks, Trent and Emily McEntyre

Living on mission during transition - support material - seasons of life

When I began preparing for these talks I immediately thought of some the insights I heard from David English. Here is a background essay on the seasons of life we all go through.    I was in my early 40’s and something was happening to me emotionally. For twenty years I had been involved in Christian ministry and loved what I was doing. College students were a joy to me and I had worked with them in various positions of responsibility locally, regionally, nationally and internationally. I had a wonderful wife and four beautiful children. Outwardly everything seemed to be going great. But inwardly something was wrong. Something was missing. It was the same feeling that I had before I had become a Christian at age 19. Emotionally life was not making sense and I felt that it should because, after all, I had committed my life to Christ and I was serving Him with all my heart. There were two circumstances that I was faced with that added to my confusion. Campus Crusade was in the m...
