Here at Lakewood UCC, we believe that worship is at the very center of our life together. Whether in person or online, we are the living, breathing, Body of Christ. Our worship services offer a mixture of traditional and progressive elements. Our sermons seek to connect the wisdom of our scriptures with the real-life issues of today. We offer a variety of types of music because we know that no one style of music is sufficient for praising God. Every week we gather the prayers of the community and reflect on the ways we see God at work in the world. We hope that all who join us for worship experience the power and presence of the Spirit and a connection to the wider community.

Laugh Away
Genesis 18:1-15, 21:1-7

This Sunday, we hear a story from Genesis, a book of origin stories, a story of Sarah and Abraham being told they will have a child. This is particularly amazing as Sarah is well past child-bearing age. So how could this possibility happen? In a very human moment, Sarah laughs at this news – that she, post-menopausal, will bear a child. Her laughter meets us all, for we have all experienced something that seems impossible – and perhaps laughed at the thought! God responds to Sarah “Is there anything too wonderful for the Lord?” inviting us to consider what may be possible in God, with wonder, awe, and yes, even some laughter. Join us this Sunday in worship as Rev. Mollie preaches and we ponder together the wonders of God’s love.
