Beacon Deadline
2015-09-18 | CO
The Beacon is our church newsletter, summarizing all the goodness of the month gone by and peeking ahead at the month to come. It’s also YOUR chance to share an announcement, a newsy tidbit, a word of thanks, or just some deep thoughts. If you’ve got something for the Beacon, email it to the Church Office or drop it in the Office Manager’s mailbox by this Friday.

Fall Kick-Off and Potluck
2015-09-13 10:15 - 11:15 (America/Denver) | Lakewood United Church of Christ, 100 Carr Street, Lakewood, CO, 80226, United States
Summer tends to be the sleepy season at Lakewood UCC. School lets out, people go on vacation, and church activities shift down a gear. Everything just moves a little slower. Aaah. Hopefully by now though, everyone’s feeling rested and eager to get going again. We’ll kick off our Fall season on September 13 with our choirs back in action and a celebratory potluck after the service. You don’t need to sign up—just bring whatever takes your fancy. Our youth group, YAC, will have its own kick-off the following week. More information on that to come!

Men's Breakfast
2015-09-12 09:00 - 10:30 | Sunrise Sunset, 1424 S. Wadsworth Blvd., Lakewood, CO, 80232, United States
A new month is rollin’ ’round, and the men of Lakewood UCC are back to their breakfasting ways. Is there nothing that can stop them from hanging out, having fun, and eating a hearty morning meal? It would appear not. Don’t beat them–join them, at the Sunrise/Sunset restaurant at 1424 S. Wadsworth Blvd. Contact: Daryl Foelske.

Worship
2015-09-06 10:15 - 11:15 | Lakewood United Church of Christ, 100 Carr Street, Lakewood, CO, 80226, United States
We meet for worship every Sunday at 10:15 a.m., and we’d love it if you stopped by and joined us. You can park in the large west lot on Carr Street or the smaller east lot on Brentwood Avenue and then enter through the main doors on 1st Avenue. When you come in, a welcomer will greet you and answer any questions you might have. For more on our worship service, click here.

Bible Study
2015-09-02 10:45 - 12:15 | Lakewood United Church of Christ, 100 Carr Street, Lakewood, CO, 80226, United States
Every Wednesday morning at 10:45 a.m., Pastor Curt leads a Bible Study for 20-30 members of the congregation. There’s always a lively discussion and a lot of laughter. Basically, if you’re trying to figure out how to take scripture that was written at least 2,000 years ago and apply it to your life in the modern world, this is the perfect place to do it.

Worship in the Park
2015-08-30 10:15 - 11:15 | Prospect Park, 11300 West 44th Avenue, Wheat Ridge, CO, 80033, United States
Join us for one of our favorite services of the year—our annual “Worship in the Park” at Prospect Park in Wheat Ridge. We’ll gather at 10:00 a.m., and begin our 15-20 minutes of pre-service “gospel” sing-a-long at 10:15 a.m. You’re invited to come with a picnic lunch to eat after the service. Phil and Steve Goebel will bring their famous homemade root beer, and the Fellowship Committee will provide ice-cream for floats. ALSO, if you play guitar, mandolin, drum, and/or banjo, and want to help lead the sing-a-long and worship songs, please contact Travis Kornegay or Steve Goebel.

Sermon Talkback
2015-08-23 11:30 - 12:00 | Lakewood United Church of Christ, 100 Carr Street, Lakewood, CO, 80226, United States
Thanks to everyone who made July’s Sermon Talkback session such a success. Join us again (or, if you missed it, for the first time) on the last Sunday of August as we get together in the Conference Room after worship to discuss the sermon we’ve just heard. No commitment is required—just show up!

Beacon Deadline
2015-08-21 | CO
The Beacon is Lakewood UCC’s monthly newsletter, written by you and for you. So, if you’d like to share something “churchy” (and we mean that in the broadest possible sense of the term), please email it to the Church Office or drop it in the Office Manager’s mailbox by this Friday.

Lay Sunday
2015-08-16 10:15 - 11:15 | Lakewood United Church of Christ, 100 Carr Street, Lakewood, CO, 80226, United States
For those of you who don’t know, a “lay” person is basically any member of a church who isn’t the pastor. And, on this special Sunday, we have lay persons lined up to do everything from the Call to Worship to the Prayer of Dedication, with Max Michalec, Judi Baxter, and Daniel Sweeney telling their stories of the God who called to them from the midst of the storm. You won’t want to miss this one!

Out-to-Lunch Bunch
2015-08-09 12:00 - 13:30 | Jus’ Cookin’s Restaurant, 840 Tabor Street, Lakewood, CO, 80401, United States
Out-to-Lunch Bunch is where Lakewood UCC goes to blow off steam, relax, chat, catch up, and hang out. Join us after worship at Jus’ Cookin’s Restaurant (840 Tabor St.) for good food and good conversation. Everyone is welcome! Contact: Karen Coiner, Len Ewald.

Men's Breakfast
2015-08-08 09:00 - 10:30 | Village Inn, 7831 West Alameda Avenue, Lakewood, CO, 80226, United States
If you’re a man who likes breakfast, and you enjoy the company of other men who like breakfast, then we have an event for you. Cunningly, we call it “Men’s Breakfast.” It happens pretty much every month on the second Saturday. Which, in August, happens to be this Saturday! So come as you are to the Village Inn (7831 W. Alameda Ave.) and hang out with the men of Lakewood UCC over a plate of scrambled eggs and a steaming mug of coffee. Or really, anything else on the menu. All ages, sizes, sports affiliations, political beliefs, and facial hair choices are welcome. Contact: Daryl Foelske.

Summer Film Series: The Matrix
2015-08-05 18:30 - 21:30 | Lakewood United Church of Christ, 100 Carr Street, Lakewood, CO, 80226, United States
Yes, we’re watching The Matrix (1999, 136 minutes, rated R) tonight. And why are we watching The Matrix? What does the story of a computer hacker who discovers that reality is an illusion have to do with Jesus? Everything! Join us in the Youth Room for the triumphant conclusion of our Summer Film Series. Jacob Liechty and Nancy True will facilitate what promises to be a very interesting discussion. If you need childcare, please let us know as soon as possible.
