Pastor Andy will be sharing a message called, “Unexpected Christmas – Part One Guest List” from Matthew 1.
The following is one of the songs we will be singing:
Children’s Ministry
    • This Sunday we will NOT be offering children’s ministry.
    • Once a month we will intentionally NOT offer children’s ministry in order to give our volunteers a break and also to give parents/guardians the opportunity to have their children with them for the entire service.
    • The other Sundays of the month the children will stay with their parents/guardians for the music time after which they will be dismissed to the lower level fellowship hall for the duration of the service.

This week at LLWC – November 20, 2022

This Sunday Pastor Andy will be sharing seven video taped testimonies from members of our own community as part of “Testimony Sunday”.  I believe faith will be ignited and hope will be restored as these stories of miracles are shared!  Don’t miss this encouraging service!
This would be a great service to invite a friend to attend!
In addition, you are all invited to stay for an EXTENDED WORSHIP time immediately following the service as part of our response to the goodness of God!  What a great way to launch the Thanksgiving season.
