Lakeside Community Church History

Lakeside Community Church meets in the Civic Centre in the heart of Perton next to a beautiful lake. We've been known as Perton Christian Fellowship since 1980, but have recently changed the church name to emphasise our heart for the community around us.

10 reasons for choosing Lakeside

Suitable for men (and women & young people!) Currently 42% of our church are men, many of whom occupy key roles and ministries supporting the focused vision of the church.

Friendly welcoming people: visitors comment on the warm welcome they receive – we appreciate everyone who enquires via the church website and then makes that important first visit.

Good for kids: from Creche through groups Kidzone Blue, Kidzone Gold and Yzone, our children enjoy an exciting and varied program of activities, often contributing in services.

Popular with young people: read the LCCP testimony page! Many of our young people are involved in youth activities including small groups, music, drama, events, camping, keeping fit and lots of time together.

Great location: the church faces a beautiful lake (part of the river Penk) with varied wildlife, riverside & woodland walks and a brand new multi-purpose outdoor games area. We have great facilities including dropped kerb access with automatic doors,  supermarket & shops, dedicated car parks and bus routes to & from Wolverhampton, Codsall and other locations.

Life related teaching: we apply the teaching of the Bible to everyday modern life and benefit from its timeless wisdom.

Enjoying the presence of God: people regularly speak of sensing God’s presence during our services.

Stimulating worship: there is a high priority for corporate worship and we offer ministry to all who come forward for prayer.

Effective partnerships: we partner in mission with the Church At Perton & other local churches; Wolverhampton NET and the Midlands VIA group of churches.

Focused vision: we are preparing for and working towards a significant and lasting move of God in this region through our partnerships above.
