Welcome to our web page at SPA for life! We know that physical training has some value, but godliness has value for all things, in this life and forever. The quality of life Jesus wants us to experience is captured in His invitation that: "I came so they can have real and eternal life, more and better life than they ever dreamed of." (John 10 Message)

At Southside Pentecostal Assembly, we are a diverse group of people who have been drawn together for life in Christ Jesus. The atmosphere of this church family is:

Spiritual reality:  We are a people who are in a life long process of becoming more like Jesus. We want each person to sense that SPA is a place for them to belong.

Prayer:   This should be as natural as the air we need to breathe. Jesus said His house will be called a house of prayer. Taking time here to believe God for needs, times of corporate prayer, and individual and group prayer are the keys to our tomorrows. We want each person to sense that SPA is a place for them to believe.

Acceptance:   People need to know that they matter to God and to us. We want each person to sense that this is a place for them to become.

Why not join us if you live in the area, or drop in when you are visiting. We are SPA for Life! We look forward to meeting you… Pastor Doug & Wanda

What an absolute joy it is for us to be a part of the SPA team!

Each day we are given the privilege of connecting with people, some as acquaintances, others a dear friends and family.  It is our hearts' desire to impact and make a difference in the lives of those God brings our way and to encourage to do the same.

As part of the SPA team we have the wonderful privilege of focusing on and implementing small groups.  SPA Small Groups are a fantastic opportunity to develop community, make lasting friendships and have unity with others.  All of this happens through times of Bible study, group involvement, personal examination and social interaction.  It is in this spirit of community and relationship that we offer adult small groups on both Sunday mornings (SMA) and Wednesday evenings.  Class themes range from topical studies, evangelism, new believer's and marriage enrichment to moms with small kids, encouragement and personal growth.

Another exciting small group being offered on an on-going basis is the familiar world-wide non-denominational ALPHA course for those who are searching, asking and wondering about what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ.  This small group happens Tuesday evenings.

Please consider joining us for one of these life-changing small groups!

For further information on participating in our small group ministry, please contact the church office.  We can also be reached at dale@spaforlife.com and would welcome your emails.

Pastor Sue's desire is that as soon as they have understanding, they will make an eternal decision for Jesus Christ, and from that point on, to see them grow continually in their walk with Him.  It is her goal to train them in the areas of ministry that God has equipped them for, and to release them at a young age to minister to others using the gifts and talents God has already placed within them.  Psalm 8:2 says, "From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise because of your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger."

By simply praising God from the heart, she believes children can bring down the strongholds of the enemy without even realizing it.

Here at SPA, we have a variety of ministries that touch the lives of all children from birth - Grade 6.  For more information, check out our Children's page under "Ministries".
