Our community is strengthened by fellowship and a variety of church activities.
Please join us!
Christmas Dinner
On Sunday, December 17 immediately after worship, join us in the dining room for a festive church family dinner. There will be great fellowship, lots of holiday cheer and a delicious Christmas meal provided by Stancato’s. We need a head count in order to calculate the food quantity, so please reserve your spot by Sunday, Dec. 10: You may call the church office, send an email to the church office, or drop a note in the offering plate. A free will offering will be collected at the dinner, to be given to the Parma Heights Food Pantry. Christmas Crèche: A highlight on December 17th will be a Christmas crèche of beauty and lights set up in our church library, transformed into a place of peace, sharing the story of Christ’s birth. Be sure to visit it with your children, family and loved ones. Seats will be available so you can spend time enjoying this meaningful Christmas scene. |
Hiking in the Metroparks About once a month, members, family and friends meet for a family-friendly hike in our wonderful Cleveland Metroparks. The trails we choose are easy terrain, and the hikes are usually not more than an hour or so. We hope you will join us for our next hike. Please contact Katie Kolthoff if you have any questions. |
Wild Winter Lights at the Zoo On Thursday, December 28th from 5:30 PM - 10 PM, join us at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo, to experience "Wild Winter Lights". Please return the attached form and $15 per ticket to the church office by Sunday, December 10th. |
Community Garden
Parma-South has a 16-raised-bed garden behind our main church building. It was started almost 10 years ago by our young adult group and has expanded each year. Our mission is to grow fresh produce for the Parma Heights Food Pantry, church members in need and the surrounding community. Our garden season runs May thru late September, and we grow easy to prepare produce such as peppers, lettuce, green beans, tomatoes, peas, carrots, squash, cucumbers, eggplants, zucchini, and berry bushes. Volunteers are needed to help with watering, pulling weeds and eventually harvesting throughout the summer. If you are interested in helping or have questions, please contact Tony Indovina or call or email the church office.

Memorial Day Recognition
Parma-South Presbyterian Church is home to the annual Memorial Day Service for the city of Parma Heights. This year was the 156th annual service, and was held on our front lawn on Monday, May 29, 2023. The Valley Forge Marching Band performed before and during the service. Following the service, there was a wreath laying and dedication ceremony at the Parma Heights Cemetery. Please plan to attend next year's service and remember to bring your own lawn chair. |
