At Lakewood, we gather together throughout the week in both large and small groups, but our largest gatherings take place on Sundays and Wednesdays.
Sundays – 9:30am & 11am
Wednesdays – 6pm
Sundays
We invite anyone and everyone to attend our Sunday gatherings as we celebrate God in song, scripture, Lord's Supper and prayer.
What do I wear?
At Lakewood, you will find a variety of dress styles. There are many people who like to dress up, and there are many who like to be more casual in their dress. You will see nice suits all the way to jeans. So, we would encourage you to dress as you are used to in other churches or whatever makes you comfortable.

Where do my teenagers go?
Our student ministry, Fusion, exists to help students live for God, love the church and lead others to Christ. On Sunday mornings, we meet for Fusion Groups from 9:30-10:30am in The Lodge. Students are divided by grade and gender and meet with adult leaders to connect deeper with God and one another through Bible study, prayer and fellowship.
How do I get plugged in to the church?
We regularly offer our Discover Class led by our Senior Pastor, Dr. Smiley, for anyone that is interested in learning about who we are and where we are going as a church.

At the end of class, you will be given the opportunity to become a member of Lakewood.
