Greatest place for the family to grow in God. Amazing LAKELAND PARK now open for kids!!!read more

In 2012 , I attended their small group, celebrate recovery for "hurts, hang ups and habits"…read more (A Christian based 12 step program like AA.) I was so impressed by the Pastor Josh, his wife Lisa and church that I became a member. The volunteers are always helpful and smiling! I was born and raised Catholic and always had questions no one could really answer... so I always felt lost. When I found Lakeland Community Church, I felt like I was "home"! I get so much out of the weekly sermons. I frequently feel like the message was "directed and meant just for me and where I'm at in my life." I look so forward to every Sunday message. I must not be alone, since the church has grown and they are constantly expanding. There are small groups you can join that will help strengthen your journey in life and your relationship with Jesus. Recently, they opened up a Lakeland play land/park which is 5000 ft.² for children to play, all free and open to the community. During spring break, the Playland was so busy with children and their families that it hit capacity several times. So I would say that Lakeland's Playland is a huge hit with the church and the local communities!! My Grandson (7y) has given it a huge "thumb up"!! I hope my review will help some individuals & families to find their home in Jesus at LCC. God bless Denise H

The church is Neo Gothic and is located at Broad and Geneva in downtown Lake Geneva and is a jewel box of beauty. The Stained Glass windows are incredible, including a Tiffany Window, and the 1883 Hook and Hastings Pipe Organ is worth the visit alone. The parish is a lively and welcoming group and the outreach of the church includes the Lake Geneva Food Pantry, Side by Side, and the Walworth County Food and Diaper Bank. During the summer, the church is the site (along with the Horticultural Hall next door) of the Lake Geneva Farmers Market. The church has a dedicated group of volunteers who sell locally produced brats (from the Lake Geneva Meat Market) and the profits go to local charities. The church is open on Farmers Market Day (Thursday), May until October, and folks can come in and hear the organ being played by Dr. Roy Clare, who is an amazing organist. Last summer (2023) over 3000 people came inside to see the beauty of this building. Service are every Sunday at 10:30 (Coffee hour starts at 9:30). You will not be sorry to come to hear the sermons by the Rev. Elizabeth Meade.

Pastor Dave, wedding hospitality coordinator Ellie, and musician Jerry were all very accomodating and easy to work with. They bent over backwards to coordinate with us, and the hospitality coordinator was very timely with her responses. First Congregational UCC allowed us to choose what we wanted in our ceremony, and I had multiple guests tell me that Pastor Dave was funny and enjoyable as an officiant. Our ceremony was approximately 30 minutes long, and there were no restrictions on the readings we wanted to choose or anything of that sort. The sanctuary is gorgeous with its deep red carpet and wrap-around pews. The organ music was professional, and Jerry knew every hymn and song we wanted in our ceremony. It was so fun to ring the church bells as we exited the church, too! Do yourself a favor and check out this church. It's a beautiful and affordable place to get married in Lake Geneva!

As a child I attended the Park Row street's Sunday bible school (at which my mother instructed many of the neighborhood kids from my age 6 until age 10). I was confirmed there as well (see attached photo). In the mid-2000's attendance was increasing beyond capacity and the elders began seeking their new spot of unimproved, vacant land. Since building the new facilities on Bloomfield Road, it is a pleasant place to worship and has many events, fellowships and study groups (as is evidenced by their website's calendar). However, it is also fraught with lackluster community outreach, cookie-cutter pop-Christian-culture learning materials and study guides, nearly non-existent follow-up, personal care, communication, consulting, or in-depth counseling by pastor(s) beyond the micro post-Sunday service banter and small talk unless you're diagnosed, dying or being hospitalized. The services can be uninspired, devoid of universal human truths, science discoveries that affirm biblical truth, discussions of past doctrines from the HISTORY of the Lutheran church proper, or events OUTSIDE the church or WITHIN the church, not specifically pertaining to that Sunday's ratified and repurposed seminary-school's sermons. As well, their rather odd choice of both a "Classic" service (8:30am), and a "Contemporary" service (10:00am) --both of which simply bother only to have less standing, clapping, singing or modern vs. traditional hymnal song selections-- begs the question why the elder and younger congregation members are not more fully encouraged to openly share and mingle as was done in generations past? COVID-19 issues aside, the pasteurized, homogenized, often boring presentations, bible classes and services are not going to inspire, fulfill, resound in the soul, nor impassion future discourse by the younger adult or teen learners, as had been the case when this church had provided such things for myself in the heyday of its' past. Anyone that Jesus would have commanded that we serve FIRST and FOREMOST (the downtrodden, poor, wicked, the helpless around us, etc.), seems a lacking covenant at this church currently. For example: both their outreach and offerings LACK any of the following; (1). Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, (2). any food pantry, (3). any ecologically-friendly food/facility or gathering efforts to ELIMINATE PLASTIC utensils/cups/plates/containers/bags etc., and (4). any missionary out-reach program easily accomplished as "neighborhood goodwill efforts" instead or more wasteful and inane "global needs drives" or family/youth fellowship trips outside of Walworth County, WIsc., and (5). any co-connecting of gardening, hiking, arborism, litter collection, highway adoption, animal husbandry, 4-H with Christian events scheduled by this church.

There's ample parking with a ramp from the parking lot to the sidewalk/entrance. The congregation is bigger than I thought it would be from the outside, maybe around 50-75 people. There were a good number of children with a wide age range. After the worship, the children went to Sunday School, I enjoyed the bluegrassy worship music. Everyone has their own sermon preference. It seems like there are two pastors. The younger pastor gave the sermon. It was on Paul's advice for how to live, specifically examining Philippians 3. Everything is wheelchair accessible, including the restrooms that have a spacious accessible stall. The worship area is also accessible with detachable single seats, which I prefer to permanent seats that cannot be moved for wheelchairs. They even had chairs already removed for wheelchairs on both sides of the back rows. I can't remember if there were parking spaces specifically designed for people with disabilities, although it could have been hidden by the snow. They did do a good job at clearing the snow, but some spaces had some icy snow. The parking spaces directly in front of the door and ramp were all open, even though we came literally a few seconds before the service started. The people generally seemed nice. They had a reception after the service with snacks, tea, and coffee. It was a nice time for the kids to run around and for the adults to mingle. For more information, check out their website at getlifenow.org.

The head pastor is kind but for some reason decides who is saved and who isn't in his sermons which is not what Jesus taught. Maybe he's changed but I've noticed the out of context messages has spread to their bible studies and members. Our focus as believers is not the law but Jesus. Beautiful building though.

Parking is a challenge though. It was hard to find and apparently very closely monitored so watch out for tickets! The apps make it easy to extend time as needed. They also have a Safari experience (we weren't able to make it to the drive through Safari due to ticket unavailability) but seems like a good place to see.
