At Northside, we strive to be the pulse of the community around us. As we work to meet the needs of the community, we have teamed up with some other organizations to make that happen.

Mission Columbia

1320 Leaphart Street in West Columbia – Monday through Thursday, 8:00-11:00am

For appointments, please call (803) 926-3020.

Mission Columbia is the Outreach Ministry for Northside Baptist Church. Our ministry is designed to reach out to the community and help families with food, clothes and hope for a better future. Our volunteers consist of mostly senior adults who interact with clients to project wisdom, share their views of life, hoping to interject some knowledge for families that are struggling in life. Our hope at Mission Columbia is that our presence in the community will change lives, make a difference and be a shining radiant light for those around us.

Daybreak Ministries

The mission of Daybreak Ministries is to offer practical services in a compassionate and responsive manner that will encourage women, men, and families to choose life for their pre-born child. We will offer hope, healing and the truth of God’s love through abstinence education, all stages of a crisis pregnancy, and comfort during the aftermath of devastating decisions.

International Friendship Ministries

IFM is a private Christian organization which seeks to demonstrate the love of Jesus Christ to international students through sincere friendship and service. We provide free weekly dinners, informative classes, fun programs, and affordable opportunities to tour nearby attractions during school breaks. Whether it is a trip to the store, moving furniture from one apartment to another, or help with conversational English, IFM seeks to offer practical help as needed. We also assist students who want to know more about the Bible and Christianity to find a Bible study or an international class within a local church. If you are an international student, IFM is here for YOU!

Food from the Heart

Richard Kester Memorial Food Drive

Once a year the church comes together to collect food for needy families in our community. Volunteers stand outside local grocery stores and distribute red bags and flyers explaining the food drive. 100 percent of all items will benefit men, women, and children here in the Midlands. The food is distributed through the Harvest Hope Food Bank and area food pantries and ministries. Watch for more information on the events section and in your LIFE Groups.

Good Samaritan Clinic

Hispanics are one of the nation’s largest and most vulnerable communities. Here in South Carolina, latino population growth is among the nation’s highest. Yet more than one third lack access to vital health care services when they are ill or preventive care to help them stay well. The Good Samaritan Clinic is a faith-based 501(c)3 organization offering free health care for the Hispanic community in two Midlands locations. With assistance from volunteer physicians, nurses and assistants as well as funding partners, the clinic provides free medical attention and counseling to anyone in need.

OUR MISSION is “to make disciples” by urging all people to BELIEVE in Jesus, BELONG to His family, and BECOME like Him.
