About Company:
For more than 50 years, Southside is a church in Jacksonville helping people just like you discover a lasting relationship with Jesus Christ that leads to greater meaning and direction in life.

Most churches find it is comfortable to stay within the walls, but we make it an effort to be like the church from the book of Acts, to see our city changed.

We look to extend grace to all of the lost and broken, and lead those with no hope to the hope of Jesus Christ. More...
