New Name & Website

We are now officially known as “Lafayette Community Church”!

For over a year now, Southside Church has been holding public services of worship and running small group Bible studies that inspire people to put God first in their lives. We have a simple approach, a casual atmosphere, and a straightforward approach to Bible teaching that have brought a number of people to make first time commitments to Jesus and have helped other people to simply take their next steps on their spiritual journey.

None of that is going to change, and in fact, we hope that our ability to help people take their next steps will be enhanced by this name change.

We started on the southside of Lafayette, and we thought we would be able to stay there for the life of the church, but finding meeting space was difficult there, and through a series of successive moves northward, God finally brought us to the Long Center in downtown Lafayette. Well, that’s not on the southside, and there’s no reason for a church as young as ours to hold on to an irrelevant name just because we like it, so we’ve made the change.

Let me encourage you to check out this new website and watch some of our videos to get a feel for who we are and what we are all about.
