The purpose of SouthbrookChurch is to glorify God by growing in the truth, leading others to Jesus, serving one another, and worshipping God together
Acts 2:42-46
"They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching, and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising
God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved."
The church is God's Greenhouse, a place where we Grow in the Truth, Lead others to Jesus, Serve one Another, and Worship God Together. God established the Church for the purpose of equipping his followers so that they can grow in their relationship to Christ. The various ministries of Southbrook exist to help us reach our potential in Christ.
