Our History
Pastor Randy & Esther Hounsell
Senior Pastor
Christian Life began as Southside Church in 1992 when God called a group of believers from Parkview Church located on the North end to set out and begin a second work in the city of Guelph. The church began at the Holiday Inn on Stone Road under the leadership of Rev. John Hayward in May of 1992. In January of 1998, Rev. Paul Carroll became the senior pastor. Then in February of 2007 Rev David W. Forrest became the senior Pastor at Southside Church and is today.
God bless the fifteen families that heard the call and all those have been part of the past seasons of the life of Southside. Southside has grown and struggled through the years and will grow to its fullest potential in Christ.
For what God begins; He always finishes.
On behalf of the current congregation and leadership of Southside Church, thank you!
