WELCOME
to Lake Grove Presbyterian
Church (LGPC). We are glad you may be looking
for more information about our church. At LGPC,
we believe our purpose is to develop healthy
disciples who get changed in their commitment to
Jesus Christ, get connected in their commitment
to the people of Christ, and get going in their
commitment to the work of Christ in the world.
Our first hope for you is to be a part of worship
on Sunday mornings, but we would like to invite
you to go one step further through our
philosophy of Worship + 2—an invitation to be a
part of worship plus two other LGPC ministries:
one for growth through fellowship and study as
part of a smaller community, and one for mission
and service. We hope this brochure is a helpful
tool in learning about our ministries and
programs here and finding the perfect place for
you!
If you would like to learn more about getting
connected at LGPC, check out our website at
www.lakegrovepres.org or contact the church office
at 503-636-5656 or [email protected].
Need prayer? We are a church that believes
deeply in the transforming power of prayer. If
you have a prayer concern, please contact Ann
Nokes at 503-636-5656 or [email protected].

ADULT LEARNING E
Q U
I P
The purpose of Adult Christian Education at LGPC is to offer a year-round
program for discipleship that enables people to grow in their commitment to
Christ, Christ’s church, and Christ’s work in the world.
Excellent Bible courses are offered on Sunday mornings and Wednesday
evenings, but discipleship goes far beyond what we can learn in classes.
Within our desire to become more like Jesus, we aim for courses and events
that impact the whole person – not just mind and heart, but behavior.
Leaders of our Adult Learning offerings are encouraged to help people
make the link between knowing and doing. We hold high the importance
of interpersonal relationships, based on the teaching of Jesus about the
great commandment, "loving God with all your heart, mind and soul,” and the
one like it, “loving your neighbor as yourself” (Mt 22:37-39), and believing
that a trusting relationship in Jesus Christ is the foundation for abundant
life (John 10:10b).
Watch for our Sunday morning classes, and for the three terms of Growing
in the Grove, on Wednesday evenings Fall, Winter and Spring. Throughout
the year you can find opportunities to explore faith issues and deepen your
understanding of the WORD, both written (Bible) and living (Jesus).
