Ministries at LBC — Ministry boils down to service; when you minister you are serving others. This is how we practically work out the second part of the passion statement, to love people. This is where we use the gifts God has given us to build the church.

Keep in mind that many of the ministries at LBC require membership. Membership — At Lighthouse we believe that becoming a member at a local church is an important part of obedience to biblical commands. It is the way we formally recognize those who want to submit to the leadership of the elders and partner with us in our M. To be a member you have to be a Christian, be baptized and be willing to participate in the life and ministry of the church as much as you are able.

There are periodically membership classes so listen for them in the announcements and sign-up. Sunday Worship — We meet every Sunday at am and am to worship God as a church body. Affinity Groups — The Christian life is one of relationship, with God and with our Christian brothers and sisters.

They meet in homes throughout the San Diego area to discuss the latest sermon and to fellowship. Each flock does things a little differently, but all are a great way to get to know other believers at LBC. To join, just check out the flocks page and talk to one of the leaders.
