Ministries of LWCWC

Living Water Community Worship Center has been called to offer different ministries to members of the church, as well as to members of the community. With the different ministries we work to see that God's will is done and the needs of the church members and community are met.

As we minister in various ways we pray that all those who do not know Jesus Christ as their personal savior will come to know him.

Our prayer ministry will remain active in the supplications and interceding for the body of Christ. We seek Godly counsel from the Holy Spirit and pray fervently for the needs of the members of the church, the community and the world.

The Women's Ministry addresses issues and concerns of women in the church and community.  The Women's Ministry also seeks to empower women by building upon fundamental Bible principles.  Sister II Sister is a

fellowship of the sisters coming together for Bible study, book reviews, food, fun and fellowship. It is an opportunity for women to connect with each other and grow in the things of God.

The Men's Ministry is a tool used by the men of the church to build brotherhood among men in the church. The ministry also offers spiritual guidance for men of the community.  Men Building Men (MBM) has a mission. The Mission Statement is as follows: 

"Men who build relationships with Christ, bring other men to Christ".

The Youth Ministry engages young people by showing them that it is fine to live for Christ.  This ministry has youth centered programs that help boost the young person's walk with the Lord.

Provides counseling for married couples and those seeking to be married.  In addition, this ministry entails the couples fellowship.  This ministry allows Christian couples to support, learn, and strengthen each other's marriage in today's uncertain world.

The Outreach ministry seeks to evangelize and spread the good word that there is hope and salvation in a world which seems to be in turmoil. The ministry also reaches out to the sick and those in need of the love of Jesus Christ.

The church sponsors a food pantry and is a host site for the Angel Food Ministries.  The Food Ministry helps to feed those who are in need of

emergency food provisions.  The Food Ministry also collaborates with other food banks in Gastonia, NC by making referrals as needed.

This ministry is a church sponsored program, whereby church

members and community members will have access to clothing, as needed, all year round.

Ushers serve the worshipping congregation. The duties of an usher include meeting, greeting, and seating worshippers entering into sanctuary; providing worshippers with church related materials and attending to the needs of the members and visitors. Members of the Ushering Ministry are committed and dedicated to the cause of Christ and represent the general character of the church. " I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than to dwell in the tents of wickedness."  (Psalm 84:10)

The Recovery Ministry is a instrument used by God in order to help witness, heal, and bring those to Christ who suffer from Chemical, Alcohol and other addictions. This ministry seeks to recover and to help those battling with addictions. The ministry also focuses on helping people to achieve freedom and get their lives back together.
