To Enhance the Lives of Others Through Excellence in Preaching, Teaching, and Serving
About us
Lakewood Church of Hope is an inter-denominational inner city-based church whose mission is to enhance the lives of others through excellence in preaching, teaching, and serving. We believe in the bible in its entirety and strive to live out Jesus’s teachings in word and deed by meeting not only the spiritual needs of others but also the physical needs of those in the Lakewood community, where we’ve been described as “the church that loves.”

Our History
The historic Lakewood Church of Hope building was originally the home of the Lakewood Heights United Methodist Church (LHUMC). After the LHUMC closed its doors in 2003, the building sat vacant for 10 years and the community around it declined. By faith and hard work, a decade later, Lakewood Church of Hope (LCH) opened its doors to a welcoming community in dire need of its arrival. The LCH is dedicated to revitalizing the surrounding Lakewood Heights community. LCH focuses on accomplishing this goal by not only meeting spiritual needs but also providing support services to individuals and families in the Lakewood community.
