I’m currently sending my debut novel to agents and it’s my dream to be an author. Please pray that God provides a YES (if it’s his plan) with the right person and helps me stay calm throughout this stressful process. Less rejection more protection and celebration please!

This intergenerational devotional is a daily experience where you will be able to prepare your heart for the arrival of Jesus through reading, prayer, reflection and action. Set aside a time daily to engage in this practice, on your own or alongside some family or friends. 

If you are a young family reach out to Jenn Surtees to get a copy of our Advent Tree and stamps that go along with this devotional to help engage our kids minds and bodies.

At Southridge, we believe that LGBTQ+ people are deeply loved by God and are full image bearers of God, each bringing unique value to our community. In that spirit, everyone is welcome to belong and participate in the life of our church.  

As a fully-inclusive Jesus-centred church, LGBTQ+ followers of Jesus have full and equal opportunity to participate in baptism, membership, leadership, employment, and marriage.
