Save the Date!

We are planning an “Everything Is Free” event on July 25 in the Family Life Center, and it will be open to the public. Our hope is to bless those in our community who may be struggling financially or have experienced a disaster whereby they have nothing. In the coming months, if you come across items you no longer need, please consider setting them aside to donate. We will be collecting clothing (men’s, women’s, and children’s), kitchen and household items, children’s toys, furniture, electronic items (in working condition), and tools/garage items. Items can be dropped off at church July 22-24. We will also need a small army of volunteers to help make this event a success! Contact Steve Burke for more information at steve@lwlc.com.

Quilting Group

Did you know quilters call in-progress quilts “quilt sandwiches”? Each has a top, middle, and back. Right now, the LWLC Quilters need “middles,” and flat bed sheets work perfectly for this! Cotton or cotton/poly flat sheets (any color) can be repurposed into the middle layer of quilts that travel the world to provide warmth, shelter, or even carry-all. Flannel is fine, too—but satin and knit sheets are too slippery. If you have extra sheets in good condition at home or find them at a yard sale, please consider donating them. The Quilters thank you for your generosity!

FriendSpeak

Fridays, 10-11 AM

We have international friends living here in our community from all over the world. We need volunteers to engage in one-to-one English conversation with them at the church. Stories from the Gospel of Mark are used as the content for conversation.

Recent Google Review

We have been so impressed with the love and attention they have given to our daughter. It’s so nice they have plenty of room for the kids since they use the entire church for preschool. It’s a wonderful mission that the church provides for those in the community since it’s free. I thought there would be a “catch” but there hasn’t and it’s been a wonderful experience for us all!
