Since joining Lakeside church, I have felt a strong sense of community and support that has been a true blessing in my life. Every day, I strive to live my life in God’s service and to His glory. At Lakeside Church, I have found meaningful relationships, a closer connection with God, and, most importantly, encouragement through learning and by example. This has nurtured my spirit of discipleship, enabling me to share the good news that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior who died for my sins.

Jesus says, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6)

He has fired up the spirit within me and is constantly making me realize more every day that worry, anger, frustration are only ways to fill my days and life with darkness.  Because I have found – and truly believe – that by trusting in our Lord and in Love I have found an amazing treasure in a field (Matthew 13:44). 

Now, above all things, I want to tell others about what I have found so they too can know the Joy it brings to life and where they can find that treasure for themselves.  Every time I feel the despair of the world closing in (and it does often) I can turn to the treasure of Christ in my heart and joy, again, comes back bringing comfort and light.
