Lakeside Presbyterian
Worship services can be seen each Sunday at 10 a.m. via facebook.com/lpcchapala, or at www.lpcchapala.org.
LPC devotionals are posted to these sites Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday mornings.
Continuing LPC’s series on psalms, Dr. Wayne Cook’s sermon is “The God of Second Chances,” drawn from Psalm 51. “Have mercy on me, God, according to your unfailing love...” Among family, friends, or acquaintances, who but God has unfailing love for us?
LPC Outreach Director, Martin Thorner and his team delivered dozens of despensas in north shore towns. Despensas now include children’s clothing in addition to the package of basic food items and necessities. To date, over and above LPC’s regular despensas, 268 deliveries have been made on behalf of Chapala Sunrise Rotary. LPC is grateful for Rotary’s support in helping us meet the need.
The Covid crisis continues. Families had no resources to fall back on when they lost their employment. Having comida today depended on what was earned yesterday, and when the jobs dried up, there was no way to put food on the table.

Abundant Life Church
Where did you learn what a Christian looks like? Some believers have had a poor example of what a Christian looks like. Some people don’t want anything to do with God or they are trying to please God in the wrong way altogether because of the example they had. Sunday, July 5, Pastor Gary warns us of the costly outcome of a legalistic form of Christianity. God wants us to look like Him and is glorified when we do.
We are limited to 50 people so be one of the first to arrive. Those who cannot be with us in person will enjoy our services both on our Facebook page as well as our YouTube channel. Sunday, the service broadcast will begin at 10 a.m. for English at abundantlifechapala.com.
Abundant Life Church is affiliated with the Assemblies of God of Mexico and has services for everyone. Our weekly English-language Sunday worship service is at 10 a.m. and English Bible study is Wednesdays at 3 p.m. Abundant Life Church is located at Carretera Chapala-Joco 140 in San Antonio Tlayacapan just a block from SuperLake.
