Worship Ministry
Parkside's Worship Ministry is a ministry focused on glorifying God through music and art. While worshiping God includes much more than singing, we take joy in the unity of lifting our voices to God corporately. We sing using a variety of musical styles ranging from hymns to contemporary praise and worship songs.
Our goal in worship is to offer God the praise and glory He inherently deserves, to respond to His character and promises which He reveals to us in His word, and to encourage one another to attain a greater understanding and awe of our God.


"Our goal is to worship God in what we call full-circle worship—as John 4 puts it, in Spirit and in Truth. We lift Him up with our heart-felt praises, while engaging our minds on the truth of who God is and what He’s done and is doing.
I encourage you to come and experience the presence of God with us this Sunday, as we worship Him."

KidZone Worship Arts is for kids in grades 1-6, and KidZone, Jr, is for kids 3 years-Kindergarten. Each week, kids will learn how to glorify God through songs, choreography, and drama. We will also have childcare for kids 2 years and under. CLICK HERE to register. (Registration is preferred, as it will speed up the check-in process, but not required.)


We are so excited about our 1st Annual KidZone Spring JAM! This is a two-day Worship Arts event for kids 3 years old – 6th grade that will include music, games, crafts, lunch, and preparation for our KidZone Spring Musical. We will also have childcare for bed babies through 2 years. The event will be Saturday, April 22, from 9:00 AM - 2:00 PM, and the Spring Musical is the very next night, on Sunday, April 23, at 6:15 PM.
Registration is required for this event and is now open. The cost is $10 per child for the first two children and then $8 per child after the first two. The deadline to register for childcare (bed babies through 2 years) is Sunday, April 16. All others can register up to and even the day of the event. (But, don’t wait!!!)
After registering, you’ll be able to pick up your CD (1 per family, 1st – 6th grade) and begin learning the songs for the musical. We’ll teach you all the motions when you come for KidZone Spring JAM on April 22, and then we’ll present the musical, entitled DiscipleSHIP Adventure, the very next night on Sunday, April 23, at 6:15 PM.
