LHC Easter Insider Info

With Easter celebrations at both our campuses, we sent video-emails out tailored for two different audiences this week. They are both below:

LHC Downtown

In case you missed it, here's a link to this morning's Austin American Statesman article about downtown churches. Special thanks to campus Pastor Chad Zunker and his team for being a light and a haven downtown for so many people who would never have come to us if Chad and his team weren't going to them. Well done, to a lot of good and faithful servants.

LHC Downtown This Sunday

Downtown Membership Class Invite from Lake Hills Church on Vimeo.


To all LHC DOWNTOWNERS: This Sunday, we're holding our first-ever LHC Membership Class after the morning worship service. If you're already a member of LHC from the main campus, you don't need to stick around. But, if you're new to LHC, I want to meet you and let you know who we are and what makes us tick. Our vision and our values are the primary message of the Membership Class I'll be teaching, so come on and check it out.

As soon as the service ends, we'll have a box lunch available for you, childcare is provided and then we'll start the class at 1:00. It'll last right at an hour or so (depending on how much coffee I've had!). This first couple of months has been a great start for Downtown. I can't wait to see what God has in store for us as HE builds on this beginning.

A Beautiful Day

I love the Church. Specifically, I love Lake Hills Church and the people who make it what it is. Yesterday was a historic day in the life of our church as we officially became one church in two locations with the launch of LHC Downtown. We also saw a new worship service and worship schedule at the mother ship create incredibly rich and powerful experiences for everyone who was there.

LHC Downtown welcomed 536 people to the inaugural worship experience at the Austin Music Hall. Campus Pastor Chad Zunker and his team created a phenomenal environment and community to welcome so many people who are brand new to church and encountering God like they did yesterday. Again, thank you to everyone who is working, praying, giving financially, and serving to make LHC Downtown possible. God is moving through you and I'm so grateful and proud to be a part of what He's doing through you.

Our new order of worship created some new opportunities for people to hang out and visit after the service, pray with pastors and staff members at the end of the service, and just really experience a richer, fuller time of worship and community.

Also, thank you SO MUCH to everyone who is inviting people to join you for worship. THAT is who we are. I'm so grateful to you for reaching out, getting comfortable with being uncomfortable, and just generally caring about people. There is nothing more spiritually mature or Christ-like than introducing other people to a personal encounter with God. That's why we're here.

If you missed yesterday, I want to invite you to make it a point to be back this coming weekend. I'm continuing the series NEW with a message, "A Place to Belong."

LHC Downtown Open House

LHC Downtown Open House was HUGE! Over 230 people came to check out the Austin Music Hall, meet others who are going to be a part of LHC Downtown, pray, and dream big dreams. Thanks to all of you who chose to make last night a priority. I think we all got just a small but sweet taste of what God is doing and letting us be a part of.

If you couldn't be there but want more information about LHC Downtown, email Chad Zunker, Downtown Campus Pastor. As we said last night, we'll open doors for worship in the fall, but the church starts NOW.
