Build a Box, and you can transform entire families and communities worldwide with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

When you build a Shoebox for a child, you provide believers in remote regions with a creative way to share the Good News in a culturally sensitive manner. You can participate in two ways :

1) Pick up an empty box starting Nov 2 – return the box filled to Lakeway Church by Sun, Nov 16.

Outside the Worship Center, you can pick up an empty box and packing instructions on Sunday, November 2 and November 9. Bring it back to the Worship Center on Sunday or to the office during open hours, during these two weeks

2) Build a Box Online through Nov 30   – [Build a Box Online HERE->]

Each online shoebox is carefully prepared, abiding by strict customs regulations to safeguard partners who deliver the gifts as well as the boys and girls who receive them.

Child Dedication Class

We believe a child’s dedication and celebration are about dedicating the child to the Lord and encouraging parents to raise them in a God-honoring way. As your church, we want to partner with you and be your biggest fans and supporters as you seek to raise your child to know, love, and serve Jesus Christ one day. Child dedications are celebrated in our services three times a year. If you want to hear more, please sign up below to attend one of the Child Dedication Classes.
