WHY LIFEPOINT?
OUR SHORT REASON
Hi there! Thank you for checking us out. We believe church can and should be a place where people are genuinely loved, accepted for who they are, connected in meaningful relationships, and invited to deeper faith. If you have never been to our church before, you are invited to join us in person this Sunday. You can also join us via our LiveStream service and on YouTube. We look forward to meeting you! Have a great day! God bless you!

WE CAN'T WAIT TO MEET YOU
WE LOVE EVERYONE
Here are a few ways we show that love.
MINISTRIES FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
No matter who you are, how old you are, kids, no kids, married, single, or even if your family is a bit of a mess right now; we want you to feel connected. Got kids? Great, we will love them and take care of them while you enjoy high quality service content. No kids? Single? We are confident that you will find belonging and purpose in one of our groups or ministries. Give it a shot; you have nothing to lose and so much to gain.
WHO IS LIFEPOINT CHURCH?
From it's inception, LifePoint church has been striving to be a safe place for people to come and learn about, and experience faith together. That is still the church we endeavor to be for you and your family.
We’re glad you’re considering LifePoint Church. Regardless of your religious and/or spiritual background we want you to feel welcome. So please relax, grab a cup of coffee, and enjoy the service.
WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT ?
A casual, come as you are atmosphere. No need to dress up; most people wear jeans including our staff.
A friendly church that will welcome you and direct you to wherever you want to go. If you want to check things out on your own that is ok too- we will not hover. We want you to connect with us at your own pace.
Dynamic worship with a band plays today’s music.
Exciting and inspiring creative content.
Relevant, life oriented, Bible-based messages. There is nothing worse than some pastor droning on about political views or boring us to death with words that have very little clear meaning. Our weekly Life Connection messages deal with real life issues from a biblical and spiritual perspective.
We address such topics as improving our relationships, handling stress, balancing out life’s demands, finding success and significance and building strong families.
An Amazing Children’s Program. Our children’s ministry- LifePoint Kidz is a top priority. Your children will love the high energy program our great leadership team puts together each week.
A clean, safe, well-staffed nursery.
A different Place, a safe place, an accepting place for you and your family to draw closer to each other, to new friends and to God. We want you to leave each morning knowing that you matter to God and to us.
OUR MISSION STATEMENT
Connect people to Jesus and one another as we...
Gather in worship
Connect in meaningful relationships
Serve one another, our community, and our world.
This purpose statement flows out of Jesus' commandments to love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength, to love our neighbor as ourselves, and to go into the world and proclaim the Good News of God’s love. Our goal is to do these three things- Gather, Connect and Serve- exceptionally well.
OUR VISION STATEMENT
LifePoint is:
A Dynamic church- we want you to leave each week renewed, refreshed, closer to God and ready for the week ahead.
A church for the un-churched- we want to be a place where people, who have given up on the church but not on God, can investigate faith and pursue answers to their questions at their own pace.
A church for the whole family- we look forward to and are planning for ministries for children and students all the way to senior adults.
A church for growing- whether you know the Bible well or have little background with the Bible, we are a church where you can grow in your understanding of Jesus and His Word.
A church that serves the community- the church should not be about hammering people with guilt, pressuring people to give money or shackling people with legalism.
Jesus calls His church to serve others and our goal is to serve the community with practical expressions of God’s love.

To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God’s law but am under Christ’s law), so as to win those not having the law. To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all men so that by all possible means I might save some. I do all this for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings.” 1 Corinthians 9:19-23

Many will see and fear and put their trust in the LORD.”

ministry gifts.
