Lake Forest Church is not an institution or a building, it’s a community of people who are on a journey of pursuing Jesus – together. And we need each other to make it all happen. That’s why we encourage everyone to find a way to be a part of what God is doing at their LFC community.
There are so many places to make an impact at Lake Forest: little kids, big kids, on stage, behind a camera, saying hello, packing us up and on and on. Not only does your service honor God and show love to our church tribe, it’s also a great way to meet others.
Join our Children’s Ministry team of “Heroes” by providing a nurturing and dynamic environment to learn about and experience God in our Early Childhood and Elementary programs (Infants – 5th grade). There’s opportunity to greet and check-in families, lead small groups, provide technical support, sing, act, or create as you partner with parents on the spiritual growth of their children.
If you have a heart for leading children and are eager to share God’s lessons and love, we hope you will consider a role in Kidtropolis.

Join a team of youth mentors who are walking alongside our middle and high school students as they navigate their teenage years and explore their faith. Our youth leaders serve by connecting with a few students each week, helping lead our weekly youth gathering and attending special events and retreats.
If you are faithful, dependable, relational and think teenagers are great, we’d love to start a conversation with you.

Feeling welcomed matters. And every role on our First Contact team directly impacts how our new guests and old friends feel when they arrive on our campus.
Parking Ministers: It can get crazy out there without this team! Help direct traffic flow, keep pedestrians safe AND wear a spiffy yellow vest to boot!
Greeters: Feeling welcomed matters. Provide warm and hospitable greetings by serving at one of the entrances and help new guests find their way. In addition, you will be responsible for taking up the offering and distributing Sunday morning materials.
Coffee Bar Team: Serve up coffee and lemonade with a smile! Coffee bar team members will also set up and tear down the coffee station and keep it stocked.
Info Table Hosts: Help new guests learn how we roll and answer their questions in the Info Center. You can be the start of helping others discover their role in God’s story at Lake Forest.
