Wednesdays @ Southside

Life can be hard, and one of the best ways to live joyfully, within this difficult reality, is by growing in God’s Word and in relationships with others.

Midweek Refresh’s goal is discipleship. We want to experience spiritual transformation in all ages. There will be gender specific groups, men discipling men and women discipling women, and groups for students (6th- 12th grade) and children (nursery-5th grade).

Discipleship transforms our lives, come be a part of Midweek Refresh!
