A multisite church is one church in multiple locations. It has different campuses but central leadership with direction, vision, budget, and mission.
Our mission at Lakeland is to lead people to follow Jesus, be changed by Jesus, and commit to the mission of Jesus… because lives are at stake. We feel called to live out this mission in areas other than just Walworth County. Whether we use the words ‘Campus,’ ‘Church,’ or ‘Location,’ we are referring to taking the mission of Lakeland and living it out at a new physical location wherever we feel led by God. This new location will be Lakeland, but in a new area where we are called to fulfill our mission given to us by Him. We love what God is doing here and can’t wait to see what He is going to do at the new location.
Jon Thies has recently joined our team as the Campus Pastor. His goal for the next year is to learn all about Lakeland and our community. Through that time, Jon and our Lead Team will be praying through where they believe God is calling us to plant our first multisite campus.
We would love to have a conversation! Contact our Campus Pastor, Jon Thies, at jon@lakeland.church.
We look forward to hearing from you.
Our goal is to plant the next Lakeland location within about a 45-minute drive of the current Lakeland location. We will go wherever we feel God is calling us the most! We know that many of these locations have people who don’t know Jesus yet and we want to help them follow Jesus, be changed by Jesus, and commit to the mission of Jesus… because lives are at stake.
