The ministries at Lord of Life happen because of YOU! When you use your gifts and passions to serve others, it honors God and helps our church grow and flourish. From welcoming guests to teaching children and youth, to serving on mission trips and much more, there’s a place for YOU to serve. When you serve, you'll be amazed at how God can use you in new and unexpected ways. |
