WELCOME WELCOME
WELCOME
to Lake Grove Presbyterian Church (LGPC). We are glad you may be looking for more information about our church. At LGPC, we believe our purpose is to develop healthy disciples who get changed in their commitment to Jesus Christ, get connected in their commitment to the people of Christ, and get going in their commitment to the work of Christ in the world. Our first hope for you is to be a part of worship on Sunday mornings, but we would like to invite you to go one step further through our philosophy of Worship + 2—an invitation to be a part of worship plus two other LGPC ministries: one for growth through fellowship and study as part of a smaller community, and one for mission and service. We hope this brochure is a helpful tool in learning about our ministries and programs here and finding the perfect place for you! If you would like to learn more about getting connected at LGPC, check out our website at www.lakegrovepres.org or contact the church office at 503-636-5656 or info@lakegrovepres.org. Need prayer? We are a church that believes deeply in the transforming power of prayer. If you have a prayer concern, please contact Ann Nokes at 503-636-5656 or annn@lakegrovepres.org.

HIGH SCHOOL REGULAR PROGRAM: Grades 9-12
ADULT LEARNING The purpose of Adult Christian Education at LGPC is to offer a year-round program for discipleship that enables people to grow in their commitment to Christ, Christ’s church, and Christ’s work in the world.
EQUIP
Excellent Bible courses are offered on Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings, but discipleship goes far beyond what we can learn in classes. Within our desire to become more like Jesus, we aim for courses and events that impact the whole person – not just mind and heart, but behavior. Leaders of our Adult Learning offerings are encouraged to help people make the link between knowing and doing. We hold high the importance of interpersonal relationships, based on the teaching of Jesus about the great commandment, "loving God with all your heart, mind and soul,” and the one like it, “loving your neighbor as yourself” (Mt 22:37-39), and believing that a trusting relationship in Jesus Christ is the foundation for abundant life (John 10:10b). Watch for our Sunday morning classes, and for the three terms of Growing in the Grove, on Wednesday evenings Fall, Winter and Spring. Throughout the year you can find opportunities to explore faith issues and deepen your understanding of the WORD, both written (Bible) and living (Jesus).
