We make donations to missions and other ministries while also providing for needs found in our communities. Our buildings are used for special events fellowship weddings funerals baptisms baby dedications community services and more. We have an indoor play structure and sensory room that are run by volunteers and while used during programs it is also open to the public at various times throughout the week. There is a big focus on children's ministry at Southgate. Throughout the school year we offer weeknight programs for school-aged children teens and young adults. We are happy to have a Play Group for parents with young children at both campuses for playtime and a time of devotion. This was the second year that we were able to host seminars during Mental Health Week! We had sessions that focused on different areas of the mental health spectrum.
