How to get connected at LMC in a nutshell!
Sunday School Classes (during the school year): We have classes for all ages. Attending a class is a great way to get to know people in a friendly, informal setting and to learn new things.
Youth Activities: In addition to Sunday School classes together, our Venture Club (6-8th graders) and MYF (9-12th graders) meet for fun activities and service projects. Contact Melissa Miller or Alice Kabira for information on the Venture Club, and Adrien Hayward or Chris Ewert for information on the MYF.
Women’s Bible Study, also known as WOW (Women of the Word): Every Wednesday at 9:30 AM, LMC women gather in person for a time of Bible study, fellowship, prayer and community. Childcare is provided upon request as is an option to Zoom in. Contact Pastor Barb for more information.
Menno Men: Thursday mornings at 9:30 AM, LMC men gather in person for fellowship and community. Zoom option on request. Contact Pastor Richard for more information.
Contemplative prayer: A group meets every Tuesday evening via Zoom at 7:00 pm for a time of mostly silent prayer. Contact Cynthia Kimball or Linda Oyer for more information.
Interfaith men’s and women’s gatherings: LMC has been blessed by a relationship with the Turkish Cultural Center in Wheaton. Both a men’s and a women’s group comprised of LMC Christians and TCC Muslims gather for fellowship and study together. Contact Laura Larson or Joe Hayward for details.
Small Groups: There’s no better way to build relationships here at LMC than by joining a small group! Groups meet regularly for sharing, prayer, study and service. Contact Pastor Barb for details.
Ten Thousand Villages Store: Consider volunteering at our Ten Thousand Villages store in Glen Ellyn. This ministry supports third-world artisans by selling their goods at fair prices. Contact Sharon Ewert for more information. We need shoppers as well! Visit the store for unique gift items and delicious coffee, teas, and chocolate.
