5 /5 Emily Crisman: LAC is a warm and genuine congregation of believers who love Jesus and preach the gospel on Sunday mornings as well as in their daily lives. I grew up in Lockport Alliance and return home on Holidays to visit family & attend church if home for a weekend. I have lived in many places and attended various churches, and of all churches I still hold the highest regard for LAC. The pastors are kind, compassionate and humble. Above all, everyone is a servant and demonstrates the true meaning of community. If you are broken and hurting within, if you are lost and searching, if you are hopeless, or if you just moved to the area- come to the altar at LAC. And you will find what you need.
I also want to touch on the breadth and width of their ministry. My husband and I often are drawn to newer churches, however if we lived within 40 minutes Fromm LAC we would absolutely attend. We are not even in the state anymore. LAC is completely integrated into the community: involved in homeless ministry, children’s ministry, women’s ministry, care-net pregnancy, youth ministry, men’s ministry and many others. For decades they have been serving Lockport, and their impact is great. LAC is a beautiful representation of God’s mission for the church: to serve the poor, the elderly, the widowed, the orphaned and any other marginalized group of people. If you’re looking to serve the community and be on mission with other genuine Christians, LAC is for you! As part of the alliance church denomination, they take seriously the Great Commison.
I am proud to have grown up in LAC and proud to see how far they have come.
