New to Lakewood?

WELCOME HOME!

We are glad you are here!

Whether you've attended church your whole life or never stepped foot in one before, we know it’s not easy visiting a church for the first time.

What about my kids?
We want your first experience at Lakewood Family Church to be relaxed, and for you and your family to enjoy the service.

Below is some information to help you know what to expect:

Church Service Times

Lakewood Family Church meets every Sunday at 9 A.M. and 11 A.Mand the service lasts approximately 1 ½ hours. We encourage you to arrive 10-15 minutes early, especially if you have young children. This will give you plenty of time to get your children checked into Lakewood Kid's Children's Ministry (11 A.M. Service ONLY)  and find a comfortable seat in the sanctuary before worship begins. Plan to hang around after the service for fellowship and meeting new people.

We also meet on Wednesday nights at 7pm.
Our Thrive Youth join us for praise and worship, then head to their own space afterward.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do when I get there?
If you have children ages birth through 5th grade, then one of our friendly hosts will show you to our Lakewood Kids Ministry check-in area. Also you will be given a connect card or there will be one located in the back of the seat in front of you. We kindly ask that you fill that out so that we are able to stay connected with you. You are not required to do so. We are just glad you chose to join us!
How should I dress?
We care more about YOU than with what you wear, so the dress is always casual.  At Lakewood, you will find many people wearing everyday clothes. Some will wear suits and some will be in jeans.  Dress how you are most comfortable, and you will fit right in.
What are the sermons like?
Our goal every Sunday is to teach the timeless truths of the Bible in a way that is engaging and applicable to your life.
You will find that the messages are practical, easy to understand, and grounded in Scripture. 

You can find videos of past messages here.

What is the music like?
The music at Lakewood is always rockin’!  Lakewood features a live band with electric guitar, bass, keyboard, and drums. We sing a mixture of contemporary and we will throw in some hymns from time to time.

Opportunities for new musicians & singers are available and is subject to an audition with Lakewoods worship director (worship@suncoast4jesus.tv).
What's available for my kids?
Lakewood offers a safe and exciting children’s program during the 11AM worship service for your children, birth to 5th grade. One of our fully-trained and background-checked Lakewood Kid's Team members will help you check your child in.

Lakewood Kids is staffed solely by members in good standing at Lakewood, who have been background checked and receive ongoing training to make your children’s experience the best it can be!

During Lakewood Kid's, your children will experience fun Bible lessons, activities and games to help them build a spiritual foundation.

Simply stated, we want this to be the best hour of your child’s week!
What's available for my teens?
At Lakewood, we are a growing group of teens who meet together on Wednesday nights at 7:00 P.M. during the week. (Ages 12-19)

The contemporary music, casual dress, and relaxed atmosphere during our Sunday service makes for the perfect place for teens to worship God and grow in their faith. For this reason, we encourage all teens to participate and serve in the main Sunday service. Opportunities available (info@suncoast4jesus.tv).
