Who We Are
LOPC is a place where all kinds of people come together for a common journey—a journey of seeking, discovering, knowing and sharing God's love in Jesus Christ in our community and throughout the world. No matter where you are in your own journey with Jesus Christ, even if one hasn't yet begun for you, there are people and programs here to help you along the way. We are a church that seeks to engage the whole person in the exciting process of merging faith and everyday living. We strongly encourage everyone regularly involved here to make it a priority to participate in Sunday worship, to belong to a small group for spiritual encouragement, and to serve often in some form of Christian ministry.
Whether you need to ask some questions, or find encouragement, discipleship and teaching, or someone just to walk alongside you, this is a community where you will be challenged and helped to know and to follow God more deeply and more fully.
