Please join us in your best (church-appropriate) Christmas pajamas! This service will not be live streamed due to the location of the service.

Office Closure

The church office will be closed December 26-December 30, in observance of Christmas and New Years.

Women's Circle Christmas Party

It has been a good year for our Circle. We have returned strong after facing Covid Restrictions and we will close out 2022 with our Traditional Christmas Celebration.

I hope each of you can join us! Please, bring a covered dish and a $10 gift to exchange, on tonight, December 15th at 6pm. We will meet at the home of Melanie Dunkle.

Please RSVP to kayaldr@yahoo.com so seating can be planned accordingly.

There have been conversations around whether we should move our meetings to days. Please express your concerns/thoughts for discussion. We will need to decide prior to our January meeting.

All the best for a joyous Christmas. We hope to see you all on the 18th!

The Johnstons are going on a Mission Trip!

David and Michelle Johnston are planning to visit Angola in April 2023! There are many different opportunities Lakewood has to support them. The first and most important is to pray. Be in prayer about the support they will receive to go, the lives they will impact, and safe travels in getting there and back. Second, they are taking monetary donations to help with the cost of the trip, as well as supplies and food for the people in Angola. Any monetary donations can be given to the church with "David/Michelle Angola" in the memo line. If you would like to further specify, please include that in the memo line as well. The immediate need is money contributing towards their plane tickets which will need to be purchased soon. Lastly, they are taking clothing donations for boys 0-16yrs. This could include shoes, shirts, shorts, etc. These donations can be given to David and Michelle or brought to the church office. Click the link below for more details!
