Sundays
Sunday School
LBC offers an age-graded, developmentally-appropriate Sunday School program with a Bible-centered curriculum through which our children learn Biblical truths and grow spiritually.

For class locations, please visit our Welcome Center located in the Children's Ministries Building and our Information Center located in the Worship Center.

Children's Worship
Children's Worship is a time for children to learn Biblical truths in an age-appropriate worship setting. Children join their parents in the Worship Center at the beginning of each Worship Service and depart for Children’s Worship in the Chapel when indicated in the weekly bulletin and on the screens at the front of the church.

Wednesdays
Children's Choirs (Fall 2008)
Choirs are offered for children age 3 through Grade 5. Through choir, children learn about God, worship, and ministering to others through music. Our choir leaders have years of experience and have attended training by the SC Baptist Convention. Their desire is to teach children to praise God using their voices, with movement, and with instruments.

Choirs meet on Wednesdays at 6:15 p.m. in the Children's Ministries Building. Preschool children will enjoy a Bible story, music and movement, and playtime in the Treehouse. First grade children will experience singing, playing bells, boom whackers, and other musical instruments.

Early Bird Classes for Grades 3-5
Early Bird Classes will be offered for Grades 3-5. The classes will begin at 6:00 p.m. Classes offered will include Guitar, Chimes, Creative Movement & Sticks, and Puppets.

Missions Programs for All Ages will be provided in the Spring 2008.
Stay tuned for more details!!

Are You Ready for the Hallelujah Hoedown?
Each year, the children’s ministry sponsors and plans this huge outreach event. People from throughout the Lexington community join with the LBC family in a night of fun, food, and games just for kids. This year, we’ll have even more
stuff... candy, animals, Hudson’s Barbeque, rides, and more. But we need your help! Here are ways you can help:

Candy: Donate candy for the children who will be trunk or treating. Buy an extra (or more) bag of candy next time you’re at the store.

Trunk or Treat: Sign up for Trunk or Treat and begin planning your decorations. We want to provide even more cars this year. What better way to spend the evening than greeting precious children and giving them candy?

Volunteer to help with rides, food, etc.: Did you know that you don’t have to work all three hours of the Hoedown? Volunteers are assigned a shift (or more, if
desired). Before or after your shift, you can enjoy the Hoedown!

Volunteer registration begins Sunday, September 14, in the Worship Center foyer and in the Gathering Place in the CMB.

Click here if you would like to be covered in prayer by this special group of intercessors or if you would like to join the Labor Force Prayer Team.

Baby Dedications
During the baby dedication on Sunday mornings, parents acknowledge that the baby is a gift from God and commit to raise that child in a home where he will grow to know God's love and one day have the opportunity to accept Jesus Christ as his/her personal Savior.
