Lakeside Presbyterian

Light travels at 186,000 miles per second, while sound travels at only 1,100 feet per second, producing an amazing spectacle. We see the flash of lightning, then wait for the earth-shaking crash of thunder.

We might compare the lightning to the time that we first become Christians, and the thunder to the day that we go to be with the Lord. Many of we Christians are asleep in our spiritual lives between the lightning and the thunder. Paul gives us instructions in Philippians 2: 12-18 about what we are supposed to be doing between the lightning and the thunder. Dr. Wayne Cook further explores the phenomenon this Sunday, July 25, 9:30 a.m. in his sermon, “Between the Lightning and the Thunder.”

LPC offers communion every Sunday. Bring a friend to enjoy, not only Bible based preaching, but also coffee and light refreshments immediately after 9:30 service.  You have family at Lakeside!

LPC’s continues with weekly despensas improving the nutrition of Lakeside families in need. Thanks to your continued support and generosity, Lakeside Presbyterian Church will expand the feeding program in the next several weeks. The literacy classes are back and adding children who have not attended formal schooling. The church is available for small group meetings and bible study. Please schedule through the LPC office.

You can join us to view a recorded copy of the service on LPC’s website Sunday afternoon.

Rev. Matt Alspaugh will speak on “The Heart of Humanism.” Humanism describes a religious movement that emphasizes human capabilities, especially the human capacity to reason; that adopted the scientific method to search for truth; and that promoted the right of all humans to develop to their full potential. It’s been a big part of Unitarian Universalism. We’ll explore a bit of its history, orientation and future.
