Christmas Eve Services - Thur, December 23 @ 7pm; Fri, December 24 @ 2,4 & 6 pm

One of our favorite events at LCC is our annual Christmas Eve Services. It’s a wonderful way to end the year together as a church family and to celebrate the reason for the Season in worship. We will enjoy carols, candle lighting, and a special message from Pastor Jeff. We look foward to seeing you there! 

NO SERVICES - SUNDAY, DEC 26

Because our Christmas Eve Services are such a high value at LCC, we will not be having our regular Sunday services on December 26. However, we are offering a special opportunity for you to worship on your own with family or friends called “Church at Home.” Pastor Jeff has prepared via video a special devotional for you to do with your family, friends, or your small group on that Sunday. You can download the video and the devotional guide from our website.  If you do not have internet access, we have a limited number of  DVD's available. You can pick one up at the Information table/window at each campus.  We will return to our normal worship service schedule on Sunday, January 2nd at both campuses.

The registration deadline is January 9, 2011.
