About Us
Who
We Are
We are a
congregational church in the Conservative
Congregational Christian Conference (4Cs). Our church has a
long and rich history
dating back to 1710. But we don't rest on the works of our
forefather; rather, we look forward to worshiping and serving
in ways that bring our faith to life in our
generation.
What We Believe
At South Church our purpose is to help one
another grow in our relationship with Jesus Christ. Our statement
of faith reflects
our deep commitment to the Word of God, while our Covenant
ties us together in
this local assembly.
How We Work
As a congregational church, we are solely responsible
for
the ongoing business of this local body of believers. At our annual
meeting in March, we approve the annual budget and elect members to
serve on various ministries.
