ABOUT US
WELCOME TO LPC!
At Lakewood Presbyterian Church, we are a community rooted in faith, growing in love, and serving with joy. Whether you're exploring your faith or looking for a church home, you are welcome here. Join us as we worship, serve, and grow together in the heart of Jacksonville.
Our Mission is to worship the living God as revealed in Jesus Christ, teach the Scriptures, encourage Christian spiritual development, build a fellowship of love and trust, and send forth disciples to serve in the community and the world.
Our community is built upon foundational values that guide our faith and actions:
1. Authenticity
We believe that every person is uniquely made in the image of God and has a special place in His kingdom. Our church is a space where people from all walks of life can come together to worship, grow, and serve.
2. Compassion
We are dedicated to creating a community of love, hope, and faith, and we invite you to join us on this journey
3. Hospitality
Because Jesus welcomes and invites all people to be with him, we do the same. We seek to include all people without discrimination and to be attentive to the needs and concerns of all who look here for a place to belong.
4. Unity
Through baptism, we are joined to Christ and to each other. Jesus is the one who binds us together and unites us. Within the Body of Christ, there is diversity, and we embrace and celebrate our varied persuasions. This rich diversity presents us with opportunities to grow in loving, learning, and serving together.

It is our prayer that you will experience the love of Christ and the warmth & care of Christian fellowship here.

Children (age 4 & up) and youth will be dismissed (during the school year) for Sunday School, also located in the Education Building, after Children’s Time.
