What if a few neighbors lived out faith with you in the everyday rhythms of life? You'd share meals, watch one another’s kids, party together, serve others, restore what's broken in your community, talk about Jesus a lot and see people begin to follow him. It would be messy and it would be glorious.
Lighthouse Covenant Church is committed to making disciples in Missional Communities. Missional Communities are a central environment for us to Be The Church as the priesthood of believers.
Disciples of Jesus increasingly submit to Him in all of life, are being changed by Him, obey Him, and teach others to do the same. Discipleship is the process of bringing all of life under the lordship and empowering presence of Jesus Christ. In order to accomplish the mission of making disciples, MC’s create an environment where life-on-life, life-in-community, and life-on-mission can occur.

- Life-on-life: Being together in the everyday allows for visibility and accessibility. We see each other’s lives in the everyday stuff so that people know what it looks like to follow Jesus in all of life. With familiarity and accountability, we are able to assess and encourage growth in discipleship.
- Life-in-community: One on one discipleship will lead to a disciple looking like the one who discipled them. Community discipleship will lead to disciples looking more like Jesus as he works through the diverse people and gifts in his body. Community is also the context in which we care for each other as a good family and live out the one-another passages of Scripture (e.g., bear one another’s burdens, pray for one another, submit to one another, etc.)
- Life-on-mission: Mission reveals areas of life that need repentance and ensures we are equipping people to make disciples who make disciples. In order to lead people to see all of life as worship and discipleship, we must equip disciples to engage the everyday with Gospel intentionality–doing what they would normally do differently in light of what God has done for us in Jesus Christ.
Missional Communities
Meets Wednesday evenings at 6pm, in our church fellowship hall.
We gather together for a fellowship meal and study of God's Word.
We welcome visitors and anyone interested in becoming more familiar with our church. We do want to ensure that we have plenty of food for everyone who comes, however, so please let us know, if at all possible, that you plan to visit.
Shalom & much grace.
