Danville Update

Southland’s Danville Campus Church opened its doors on Sept. 6, 2009 and we’ve been running full speed ahead from day one. With two Sunday services (10 and 11:30 a.m.), our average attendance is around 600.  

Campus Pastor, Dave Rizer, hosts our weekend services with high quality video teaching from Jon Weece, Southland’s Senior Minister.  We have a vibrant vocal team and band that provide quality worship music every weekend under the leadership of Brian Lucas. Our age level environments on Sunday morning include top notch volunteers who guide preschool and elementary age children through in-room Life Groups, their own video teaching, and activities designed for each age group. Lindsey Stich serves as our Children’s Ministry Director and gives oversight to these leaders and to our Nursery room caregivers to ensure safe and secure environments for each child who attends.
 
We have plans to launch a Student Ministries program (for middle school and high school students) in 2010.  Service in our community is another top priority for this campus – we want to be the best church for the Danville/Boyle County area!
 
Special classes are offered periodically throughout the year.  A monthly class, Welcome To Southland, gives insight into our purpose, goals, and vision.  Beginning in February 2010, Dave Rizer will teach a six-week class titled “The Unstoppable Force.”  This overview of the book of Acts will be  purposeful teaching to correlate with our vision and strategy for Southland.
 
We’re excited about the foundation that has been laid before us and even more excited about what 2010 will bring as we continue to make a difference in the lives of people in central Kentucky.
