Join us for breakfast every
Sunday from 9:00 AM to 9:45 AM
As we are in this time of rest during the summer months, our news and upcoming events tend to slow down. Please join us in learning about Sunday School classes! Each week we will highlight a new one until we get through all of them, bringing us close to the fall.

Our Sunday School classes begin around 9:45am, after breakfast.
Faith Builders
Faith Builders Class is for those who take God's Word and prayer time seriously. If you need prayer join us, if you would like to send us a prayer request, we will pray and intercede for those needs. We dive into Gods Word like it's a refreshing fountain. The next few weeks we'll be talking about Colossians: Christ Glory, Sharing the Gospel, and Living to Please God. This study time together prepares our soul and mind for 11:00am Service, while enriching us to live the life more aboundly daily. We meet in room 107 in the Education Building and start at 10am and close at 10:50am.

Visiting our Sick and at Home
Do you know someone that is sick or in recovery that needs visiting? Or maybe someone who is unable to leave home? Please let Bill, our Minister of Visitation and Recovery, know so that he can call them or visit them. As we continue to push through this difficult time of sickness, we want you to know that Lakewood loves you and cares for you! Bill is often calling and visiting many of our members to show how much we care for you and to pray for you. Again, if you ever know of someone in need of visiting or calling, please let Bill know, and he'd be more than happy to do so!
