Blessings and Thank you for hosting the 62nd annual District Assembly for the Sacramento Nazarene District! Congratulations on an amazing celebration of Dr. Steve Scott as he closes his chapter as our dedicated District Superintendent. Parkside Church is beautiful and serves as an example of diligence and service to Christ our Saviour. Thank you for opening your doors to your sister Nazarene District churches and family. Beautiful space, beautiful people, beautiful time!

I don’t mean to leave just one star as I have never actually been to one of their services, but I definitely won’t be going now after watching them charge the community $10 to use their parking lot for a free community event. The city of auburn was gracious and generous enough to provide an incredible all day music festival for free, except Parkside saw it as a good way to make money off the people that were looking for nearby parking. As a Christian, I think it would have been amazing to see this church embrace the community of deadheads with a place to park for free, and maybe even a welcoming hug from the staff. We didn’t get that from this church today but the acceptance and love experienced by the folks at the festival made up for it 😁

I visited my son's church while I visited him. I found the congregation to be loving and Compassionate. I felt very welcome and at home. I would love to make Parkside Church mine if I lived close.
