OUR PURPOSE:
Love God
Truly loving God requires us to engage our heart as well as our head. Jesus said that loving God with all our heart, soul and mind was to be our first priority. Our combined ministries are aimed at providing opportunities to connect with God and grow in our love for Him.
Love People
When we truly love God, we are enabled to love people. Jesus said this was our second priority. Our aim is to provide an atmosphere of love and acceptance. Our care goes beyond the organized services of the week to include the concerns of daily life.

It is only as both of these elements come together that the power of the presence of Jesus in the world is fulfilled!”

TESTIMONIALS
"I love LFM! When a friend saw that I began reading the Bible and coming to faith in Jesus, he invited me to come to LFM Church. At first I was apprehensive due to negative preconceived notions I had about Church. But when I came, I experienced the love of Jesus in a community of believers, forever changing my life as well as my notion of 'Church.' I found it easy to build new relationships within the congregation and to find a place to participate in the ministry. LFM is an excellent place for anyone, regardless of class or ethnicity, to be engaged with God and find purpose in something bigger than themselves."
