Explore Our Ministries
At Countryside Christian Church, we believe in sharing God's love in practical, heartfelt ways that make a real difference in our community and beyond. That's why we're proud to present Operation Influence — an outreach ministry dedicated to bringing hope, kindness, and faith into the lives of those who need it most.
Through four unique ministries, Operation Influence creates opportunities for us to serve, connect, and shine God's light together. We meet every Tuesday evening in the Banquet Hall for Bible study and to put our faith into joyful, purposeful action.
Father, there are so many hurting, lonely people all around me — and even some who just need Your love today. Help me to see them with Your eyes, and to love them enough to reach out and share Your love. Give me a deep desire to make the most of every opportunity You place in my path.
