PARKING LOT FELLOWSHIP

Even in the church parking lot there is LOTS of fellowship, sharing and times to connect. The weather was so beautiful this week that nobody rushed to their cars but lingered to "catch up" with each other. Praise God for familes and friends that grow over the years as we worship each week at Lakewood!

GOOD STUFF FROM GOD!

"As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease." Genesis 8:22 Thank you Lord for your promise and faithfulness...we praise You in these things! Pastor Dave's pumpkin patch is full of good things ready to be harvested!!

MOVIE NIGHT!








There were LOTS of Happy Feet at Movie Night this past Sunday! There were over 40 children present for the movie, pop corn, candy, drinks and fun. It was a super time of just being with friends and good times. King's Club will continue with it's regular program next week. So plan on coming out as we Climb on Board with Jesus!





FAMILIES-A GIFT FROM GOD

It is always special to see families that worship together at Lakewood. God has given us this gift and what better place to share family time that at church....worshipping the Lord! There is a wonderful joy that comes through this gift and we praise God that so many families choose to worship at Lakewood. Janie and Bonnie both have huge smiles as they prepare to spend time with the Lord together as mother and daughter. May God bless all our families!

HOW DISTURBING!








How DISTURBING! That's the lesson theme at Youth Group for the next several weeks! Bible Stories that are DISTURBING! Sounds interesting and an awesome way to create interest in God's Word.....so what are the youth doing in these pictures? Leave it to Jake......each group was to look for (with their hands) the letters to spell each of their names.......the letters were the pasta in alphabet soup. You can imagine the reactions as the sloppy mess created quite a stir! You never know what to expect on Sunday nights at Youth Group....come and discover the fun and the message through God's Word.



MMMMMMM.....LUNCH!



It was the first Sunday of the month....October is here! And, it was lunch time! Tacos were on the menu and the gang in the kitchen cooked up a great meal. Thank you Lord for good food, good friends and good times! You are good!


WORKING TOGETHER AT LAKEWOOD

There are so many different jobs, responsibilities and areas that volunteers do each week at Lakewood. What an awesome blessing it is as we each find where God can use us and share our gifts. After counting this past Sunday morning there were at least 63 volunteers who made LIFE at Lakewood become a reality. Between the Worship Service, Sunday School, Fellowship time and Sunday lunch we work together to become the body of Christ. Thank you to ALL that help in any capacity.......Dave M. is a regular in the office on Sundays with the counting crew. This is one of those jobs that goes unnoticed but THANKS to each one!
