Thank you to all that came out to share in Celebrate Recovery at Lakewood's 8th anniversary! Special thank you to Jim Blythe, David Johnston, and their families for grilling us an awesome dinner. If you are struggling with a hurt, habit or hang-up, please ask Cyndi Morphew or Mark and Suzanne Biery to share the hope that CR and Jesus Christ has to offer you. -Cyndi Morphew
Thank you, thank you, thank you. During Bert's recent illness and surgery, we were simply overwhelmed with the prayers, calls, cards, food, flowers, and other expressions of support from our Lakewood family. You truly showed a loving Christian spirit at a difficult time in our lives. -Bert and Jean Oatman
