Planning to Visit for the First Time?

We'd Love to Meet You!

 

Parking | As a first-time guest, you’re invited to park in our First-Time Guest Parking located right next to our Main Entrance.

Service | The Sanctuary is located right inside the Main Entrance and to the right.  During service, we open with worship, have announcements, and a pastor will speak.  Sometimes we end with worship or prayer.  Dress is casual – wear what makes you comfortable!

Childcare | We’ve made it our mission to do whatever it takes to reach, teach, and equip our kids to be all that God has called them to be!  Our nursery, preschool, and elementary-aged kids have state-of-the-art facilities and a phenomenal team of volunteer and paid staff to help make sure your kids are safe, having fun, and learning to be more like Jesus!  The Grove Early Childhood Ministry (birth to 5 years old) and SLAM Kids Ministry (Kindergarten through 5th Grade) are located just across the parking lot from the Sanctuary in the Kids Building.  Feel free to ask a greeter or usher if you need help locating any of these ministry areas.

The Welcome Booth | We’d love to meet you!  Feel free to stop by the Welcome Booth in the Main Sanctuary before or after any service.  It’s a great time to meet Pastor Greg and other members of our team.  Our Welcome Team will give you information on all the ministries of First LR and take you on a tour of the facility if you’d like.

Our Beliefs

We believe there is one God.

(Deuteronomy 6:4, Ephesians 4:5) He is sometimes called Jehovah or Yahweh (the Hebrew word for God). He is revealed in three persons:  God (the Father), Jesus (the Son), and the Holy Spirit. The three are commonly referred to as the Trinity. (Matthew 28:19)

We believe salvation is available to anyone who believes in Jesus.

Jesus is God’s Son. He has always existed. Because of sin, mankind was doomed to die (Romans 6:23). Jesus came to earth as a baby, born to a virgin girl named Mary. He lived a life without sin, and willingly died for us. (John 3:16) Three days later He rose from the dead, He ascended to Heaven, and He is alive today. We can know Him personally by believing in Him and asking Him to forgive our sins.

We believe the Bible is the Word of God and the ultimate source of truth.

The Bible was written over a period of about 1500 years, in three languages (Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic), by 40 different writers, yet it contains an incredibly accurate historical record and an impeccably consistent presentation of Spiritual truth. This is only possible because the words of the Bible were inspired by the Holy Spirit. The greatest evidence of the authority of the Bible is not in historical facts or its consistency. It is found in the obvious result of applying the truths of the Bible to our every day lives. (2 Timothy 3:15-17; 2 Peter 1:21)

DAILY SCRIPTURE EMAILS

We believe God still works in our lives in incredible ways.

The Holy Spirit is still at work in the lives of believers today. In fact, many of the miracles of the Bible still happen and are documented every day. The healing of diseases, the restoration of broken lives, even prophecies and supernatural occurrences, all these things still happen. The reason these things still take place is because the Holy Spirit is still at work in the lives of believers. (James 5:14-16; John 14:12)
