Announcing end of the year giving opportunities

One of the great moments in the Christmas story is when the Angels surprise the shepherds with announcement of the good news:

"And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people." Luke 2:10

Even today there is joy when we bring the good news to people in words of truth and actions of love. The focus of our ministry in neighborhoods around Piedmont Park is bringing the truth and love of Christ. We are in the middle of a fruitful year, but we greatly need additional funding to continue our plans for 2016.

We are thankful to announce today that a $10,000 matching challenge has offered to effectively double gifts for the December.

You can donate online at https://www.egsnetwork.com/gift2/?giftid=03BF3A19610E4B1, All donations are tax deductible and you will receive a receipt for your gift. If you have any questions you can always call Trent directly, 404-932-2657.

Please pray with us that we meet and exceed this goal and that God would be glorified by displaying His grace.

Sincerely In Christ,

Trent and Emily McEntyre

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.

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.
