CHURCH MINISTRIEs
SUNDAY SCHOOL MINISTRY
Sunday School is very important to us at Lake Drive, because the foundation of Sunday School is God's Word! The Bible says that we are to "Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that doesn't need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth." 2 Timothy 2:15. The study of God's Word is one of the most important things a Christian can do, and Sunday School is a great place to start.
Each Sunday School class is taught by a teacher who loves the Lord, studies his/her lesson material, and comes prepared to share the Word in Spirit and in Truth. Even babies in the nursery are blessed with a lesson and a learning experience each week.
Classes are divided by age group, nursery to senior adult, and a ladies class is open to women of all ages. Please join us this Sunday at 9:45 am as we study God's precious Word together.JUNIOR CHURCH
The Children's Ministry at Lake Drive is lead by Marc and Mandy Bailey and serves those children in grades 1 through 5. Children's Church is located on the 2nd floor of the main building and begins at 11:00 am. Children within this age group are involved in a complete worship service, including praise & worship music, prayer time, offering and studying of God's Word through "FIRM FOUNDATIONS" by New Tribes Ministries.
PRE-SCHOOL CHILDREN'S CHURCH
Children's Church is for children who are ages 3 through kindergarten, meets in the old sanctuary and is dismissed from the main service following the choir music. This ministry is lead by a rotating staff of qualified volunteers.
AWANA
Why AWANA? Because kids matter to God! AWANA is an acronym for the phrase "Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed." It is taken from 2 Timothy 2:15 -- Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. The goal of AWANA is to reach boys and girls with the gospel of Christ and train them to serve Him. Our goal at Lake Drive Baptist is and has always been to get as MUCH of God's Word, as DEEP as we can, into as MANY children's hearts as we can. We believe that when you touch the heart of a child, you touch the heart of God. That is one reason why we are here and why we do what we do. AWANA is for children ages 3 through 5th grade. Our AWANA program is open to the entire community and meets on Wednesday evenings at 6:30 pm. If you do not have a church that you call home, our doors at Lake Drive are wide open. Every One is Welcome.
YOUTH MINISTRY
Our Student Ministry meets on Wednesday nights at 6:30 pm. The age group we serve is 6th grade through 12th grade. We enjoy a game time, praise and worship, and a Bible Study. There are also other fun and exciting activities planned each month. Our goal is to draw these students to Christ through the example of our love for them and through God's Holy Word. We desire for them to have a firm foundation to stand on, that they may lead others to Christ.
