Baptism
At our outdoor worship on July 25, plan for a special occasion! If you have not been baptized as a believer - a sign of God’s grace and your faith - we would love to have you be baptized on this day. Make your confession of faith in Jesus public. For more information, email us.
SH Kids Fun Days, Family BBQ, and Worship
Join us for these awesome Wednesdays this summer. From 2:30-5:30pm, kids will have a blast doing all kinds of fun activities, games, singing, and learning about Jesus. At 5:30pm, we’re inviting the whole South Harbor family out for an outdoor BBQ followed by worship outdoors (weather permitting). And we’ll close the summer on August 22 with a special concert. Get these dates on your calendar now!! June 27, July 11, July 25, August 8, and August 22.
Willow Creek Leadership Summit
If you’re a leader or want to be a leader, you don’t want to miss this conference simulcast at Kentwood Community Church. Join others from South Harbor and Fair Haven as we learn from amazing leaders on August 9&10. We get a special price discount, so if you’re interested, talk with Pastor Tom. This is a great opportunity to reach out to a friend or business colleague and introduce them to other Christian leaders and influencers as well.
