Greetings Family of Lakeshore! We are seeking volunteers (or groups) to sign-up for hosting a Sunday CONNECT in 2019! As you may know, Lakeshore Fellowship hosts a time for connecting following service, once per month (every 2nd Sunday of the month). We have relied on Community Groups in 2018 for preparing food and serving us (Thank you!!). We are looking for a commitment of only 1 time in 2019. Please contact the church office if you have questions about what this requires. Please consider spending one Sunday in 2019 serving your church family! Thank you!!
