OUR TEACHING FOCUS: FOUNDATIONS
What are you building your life on? In a world that constantly shifts, it’s easy to build on things that don’t last, success, feelings, expectations or relationships. But when life gets difficult, your foundation is what holds everything together.
This May, join us for Foundations, a sermon series focused on the core truths that anchor our faith. Beginning with the Last Supper and moving through themes like provision, obedience, and honouring God in our relationships, we’ll look at what it means to build a life that stands firm in every season. From everyday decisions to defining moments, Jesus invites us to build on something unshakable. Let’s build something that lasts.
Join us on Sundays at 10:30 am in-person or online on YouTube or our website. Did you miss Sunday's service? Click here to watch the recording.

Our missions giving for the month of May is going towards Power To Change - Digital Strategies. Over half the world is online, that’s over four billion people. And they’re turning to the internet looking for answers, for hope, and for someone who understands what they’re going through. Digital Strategies is meeting people right there. They share compelling stories that speak directly to real needs, and then invite people into conversation with an online mentor. Through this, people are able to ask questions, receive encouragement, and begin a journey toward knowing Jesus.
Digital Strategies equips and mobilizes over 1,000 online mentors who walk with people throughout their spiritual journey, both online and, when possible, in person. They also partner with churches and ministries to help expand that impact. Because the world is online, that’s where they are too, helping people know Jesus, one conversation at a time.

TLC MISSIONS
The Lakeside Church is a missions-minded church. We partner with local, national and international organizations in their missions to go and share the good news of freedom, hope and new life in Jesus Christ with our world. We give so they can go.
We also support the 340 million Christians worldwide who face high levels of persecution and discrimination for their faith in Jesus.
This year, TLC will partner with 12 organizations that do missions work locally and internationally. We will highlight one organization per month and come alongside them as they tangibly spread the love of Jesus to a hurting and needy world.
Please click here to support these worthy causes.
Amazingly, the 388 million persecuted believers around the world don’t look to us to end their struggle. Instead, these courageous men and women ask for just two things: Scripture resources and prayers.
Please click here to see how you can help to support them.
