Our Ministries
And He was saying to them, "The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.
Luke 10:2
We at South Riverside Baptist Church believe in the Bible says about sharing the Gospel,
How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher?
How will they preach unless they are sent? Just as it is written, "HOW BEAUTIFUL ARE THE FEET OF THOSE WHO BRING GOOD NEWS OF GOOD THINGS!" Romans 10:14-15.
To answer this call to action, we support a variety of local, national and international ministries, all of them having the purpose of making disciples of all who will listen.
