LifePlace Church is committed to seeing the vision that God has called us to fulfill in Central California through our four focuses, "Connect, Grow, Serve, and Go"
CONNECT
Connect uplifts the importance of worship, prayer, and fellowship in our everyday lives. Connect means to be in vital relationship with God, other believers, the church, and our family. It reminds us of the priority of buildin
g positive, long-lasting relationships with people at work, at school, in the community, and at home. As we connect first with God, He makes it possible for us to build meaningful relation-ships with other believers; they, in turn, help us connect to a church family. These inter-connected relationships enable us to welcome people who are not yet part of our church or who are pre-believers. Gaining knowledge is vital, but we need more than information. True discipleship means applying the word of God to our daily lives. SERVE
Serve reminds us of our responsibility to work alongside fellow believers. Our churches are full of ministry and service opportunities—from manning a food pantry to hosting a youth fellowship to teaching Sunday School classes. Every believer working together is required for a local church to function as God intended. God gifts and empowers us to serve and multiplies our efforts in exponential ways. GO
Go moves us outside the walls of the church and into our community and world. It may mean we drive a nail into a Habitat home, offer a cup of cold water, or tutor a child at an after-school program. It means we develop relationships and discern when it is time to talk about spiritual matters. Going is fed by a desire to experience firsthand God’s work in the lives of others, recognizing we are one instrument He is using. Go is different from Serve; Go is outside the church while Serve is inside.
