What Should I Wear?

At Southgate, we want you to feel comfortable and at home. Our services are casual and relaxed, so there’s no need to dress up unless you’d like to.

Who is Welcome at South Gate?

Everyone is welcome here. Whether you’ve been walking with Christ for years, are new to faith, or are simply curious and seeking, Southgate is a place for you. We believe church should be a safe space to ask questions, explore, and grow.

What You Will Experience in Worship

• Scripture Reading — grounding us in God’s Word.

• Prayer — lifting our hearts together in thanksgiving and intercession.

• Music — both traditional and contemporary and songs that inspire joy and reflection.

• Message — teaching that applies biblical truth to everyday life.

• Fellowship — encouragement from one another as the body of Christ.

Sermons

At South Gate Baptist Church, we believe God’s Word speaks with timeless truth and fresh relevance for today. Pastor Joel creates each sermon to guide, encourage, and challenge us as we walk in faith together.

After the Sermon

The sermon is not the end of worship — it is the beginning of living God’s Word together. We believe the message continues to shape our hearts and actions long after the service ends.

Our services typically close with a brief concluding reflection through song. Our altar is open to come and pray.

After the service concludes, please come chat with Pastor Joel and then pick up your gift at our Connection Center in the foyer (if you didn’t get it when you came in!) where you can learn more about South Gate!
