My wife and I decided to check out other churches in our area, and was invited by my wife's step sister to check out their church. I've never been in a Mega church before, and this one was huge. You feel very lost and intimidated in here the first time here. The pastor they have though fills you with that spirit real fast though. He did a fine job. We are still looking around, but this church has made our short list of possibilities though.

I couldn't have gotten through it without all of them. The Care and Connections pastor as well as the Lead pastor both took the time to visit us in the hospital over 3 hours away from home. Other leaders have taken the time to check on us and offer prayer/support. Our small group has also been very supportive and helpful. If you are looking for a caring place to find and follow Jesus this is it.

This is a place where everyone is welcome, the truth is preached, and the people attending are excited about discipleship. If I lived close by this would be my church without question.

Inside of St. Johns Hospital there is an astoundingly gorgeous, large chapel with amazing artwork done by European painters and stone masons and carpenters many years ago. I'm not Catholic but this place is special to me because it is quietly magnificent. There was an article in the News-Leader one time that explained how long the artists stayed in Springfield to make the magnificent chapel or church. That happened many years ago. The stones and materials were, in some cases, brought in from other countries. The ceiling is spectacular. The Stations of the Cross on the walls are captivating. When our kids were small, we once walk them around the room and explained which Bible story each panel depicted. It is a quiet and reflective place. It's a welcome respite from traditional architecture.

This church allows you to read and interpret the Bible for yourself, without being told what to…read morebelieve. Members and visitors are accepted and loved for responding to God's love for them, regardless of what social group they may be part of. Scripture is interpreted within the context and setting in which it was written, rather than blindly taking each translated word of every sentence of the Bible literally. People are given the challenge and freedom to question, search, and explore their own faith in God, and the church is a congregation of believers who accept people as they are and attempt to serve God together. South Street Christian Church has a traditional worship service with many elements that are likely at least somewhat familiar to you. There are hymns and prayers and Scripture readings, an anthem by the choir or a solo piece of music, a chance to give an offering, and a sermon. Central to the entire worship service every Sunday, however, is an observance of the Lord's Supper (communion), offered to all, regardless of current church membership or particular creeds or beliefs. The worship service is geared for thinking adults who are seeking to grow their faith, so most parents take advantage of the nursery or children's activities provided by experienced staff for their children in other parts of the building at that time. The children's activities are age-appropriate sessions that are much more than just baby sitting. Beginnings (educational and play activities for preschool children), Children Worship and Wonder, and a children's choir are offered so that children can learn and grow at their level, rather than having to sit without squirming during the service for adults. Will you be welcome and find the experience at South Street meaningful? I think so, but there's one way to find out for yourself --give it a try! There's plenty of parking in the lot on the south side of the church building (or walk from downtown apartments or Sunday bus routes). The service starts at 10:15am Sundays (over at 11:15). See you then!
