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!
