OUR COMMITMENT TO SERVICE We are a congregation committed to service.
We participate in the mission of the wider church through strong
support of Our Church's Wider Mission, monthly communion offerings,
budgeted support for a number of local needs, and various special
appeals. South Church is a leader among New Hampshire UCC congregations
in its annual per-member giving to mission and outreach.
Representatives from South Church have visited Agua Caliente in El
Salvador, where we have developed a sistering relationship. Our
congregation has participated for several years as a Bread for the
World Covenant Church; as part of BFW's annual Offering of Letters, we
have sent an average of 125 letters yearly to our representatives in
the U. S. House and Senate.
The Senior High Youth Group participates
in local community service projects and makes an annual mission trip
focused on meeting the needs of others, learning about social injustice
in our world, and growing personally and spiritually. In recent years,
this group has traveled to New York City; Puerto Rico, and West
Virginia. Experiences have included building for Habitat for Humanity,
serving in soup kitchens, and exploring the local culture.
A high percentage of our congregation is actively involved in the life
of the church. Our Minister of Volunteers is very successful in guiding
members to find appropriate areas for involvement, and in matching
people with the many opportunities to serve
that occur in the life of the church. The talents and energies of our
lay leaders are significant assets to South Church. A Pastor- Parish
Relations Committee provides a structure for pastoral support and
ongoing communication between the pastors and the congregation.
