Our Worship Services
We normally have two worship services through most of the year. Both services are similar in format.
We are currently experimenting with a third service on Sunday evenings featuring
bluegrass music.
Nursery
We provide Nursery care for children ages 0-3 during the 10:30 service.
Sunday School
All children, ages 4 through those in 12th grade, can join in fun-filled,
hands on learning. We have a dedicated Sunday school for the older children so
they can attend the full service A Children's Church for the younger
children is held in conjunction with the 10:30 AM Worship Service, with the
children being dismissed after the Children's Moment and returned prior to
communion. We have talented,
dedicated teachers and an exciting curriculum.
A dedicated Adult Class is held every week at 9:15 AM, studying contemporary
issues.
Youth
A youth group meeting or event for those in Grades 6-12 is held once or twice monthly.
We help our teens to grow spiritually through the jungle of modern life. Our
teens also spend time hanging out together. New friends are always welcome.
For Spiritual Growth
We offer studies and seminars throughout the year, generally lasting for 6 -
12 weeks. Adult Sunday School is the primary forum.
 Musical Groups
Our adult choir meets between our two services and sings occasionally during
the 10:30 AM service. New members are always welcomed.
Fellowship Activities
Our church is active, featuring a number of fellowship activities when
singles and families join together in Christian fun. Having fellowship together
increases the warmth we feel toward each other. Activities include:
- After church luncheons, Progressive Dinners, Outdoor Worship followed by
a church picnic, Ice Cream Socials, and Pot-Luck Dinners.
- Parties: Women's Tea, Church Birthday Celebration, Easter Egg Hunt, etc.
- Game nights for all ages, BINGO
Caring for people in our community
We respond to Christ's call to care for the needy by participating in the
following ministries.
- Food Bank
- Steeple to People
- Habitat for Humanity
- Shoeboxes
- Turkey Dinners
- Sponsoring children around the world
- Sponsoring refugee families
Community Involvement
We currently sponsor a Brownie Troop and Alcoholics Anonymous which meet
weekly at LGLC. While we provide a place for them to gather, they give back to
the church by helping during work days and special events.
Our People
God has blessed us with a wide range of special people attending LGLC. We
have a balanced mix of the ages with many singles, young families and older
couples. We have members who have moved here from all over the United States and
members whose families have been in the area for generations. We believe we have
something to offer everyone, no matter what their age or life situation.
