LC3 Student Ministry

Loving, training and discipling students.

LC3 Student Ministry is a place where students will feel known and accepted, where they will be taught about Jesus, and challenged to grow. We want to train and disciple each student to Love God, Love Others, and Love the World as outlined in Matthew 28:19.

We believe that parents are the first and best disciplers of their own kids. As a youth ministry, our goal is to come alongside parents as they raise their kids to become mature followers of Jesus.

Join the Team!

God calls us to love and teach our children.
Be part of teaching the next generation to love and serve God with all their heart, soul and strength.

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. Take to heart these words that I give you today. Repeat them to your children. Talk about them when you’re at home or away, when you lie down or get up. Write them down, and tie them around your wrist, and wear them as headbands as a reminder. Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.
- Deuteronomy 6:5-9
