Discovering a New Church Community Is a Great First Step
As we grow in our faith, one of the most striking realizations is that certain types of growth happen in the midst of other people. Of course, contemplation, prayer, and solitude are ancient and meaningful practices that strengthen our souls, deepen our connection to God, and provide wisdom we didn’t know we had. Yet finding a community in which we give, receive, teach, and learn from others brings us gifts we can’t uncover on our own.
As you set your spiritual course for the New Year, consider searching for a church community that meets your needs and offers opportunities for growth, all while enjoying friendship and fellowship. Perhaps this search will lead you to Lakeland Community Church. To fully realize our vision to build an authentic community of followers of Jesus Christ, we offer many paths for people of all ages and backgrounds to take the next step spiritually.
Visiting a Lee’s Summit Church Can Help You Grow in Christ
Jesus walked among the people of Galilee and beyond, teaching, serving, and experiencing everyday life. The life of Jesus and his disciples is a testament to how we grow: with others.
Attending a Sunday service at a Lee’s Summit church is a great way to start. When you visit, you’ll get to know a congregation’s character. You’ll get to experience the church’s values in action, along with music, teachings, and conversation.
Attending a service among like-minded individuals is a boost for those who are walking a spiritual path. At each church service near you, you’ll be reminded that you’re not alone on your journey. There are many others in the congregation — with their stories, challenges, struggles, and wishes — hoping to deepen their relationship with God.
However, the opportunities available to you at a local church go beyond attending a Sunday service.
Going Deeper at a Lee’s Summit Church
Joining a congregation for worship is just the beginning. Although you’ll likely come away from a Lee’s Summit church service feeling connected to an experience larger than yourself, a church that wants to nurture you on your path will offer even more.
At Lakeland Community Church, we open many doors for spiritual growth, no matter where you are on the journey. Our local church near you offers:
- Discover Lakeland sessions, which introduce you to our story and values. Attend our four sessions in any order at 9:45 a.m., just before our 10:30 a.m. Sunday service.
- Adult ministries that provide a universal framework for spiritual growth, so you can chart your journey, know what to expect, and prepare to meet each phase with an open heart and mind.
