What kind of church is Lynwood?

We are blessed with a wonderful location and facility, but where we gather is not the real definition of who we are. Lynwood is a church filled with hundreds of people whose lives have been forever impacted and changed through their personal relationship with Jesus Christ. We share a common fellowship, friendship, and focus as is described in Acts 2:42-47.

We are committed to proclaiming Jesus Christ as the answer to all of life’s dilemmas. At Lynwood you will find opportunities to serve through our ministries designed to introduce people to Jesus Christ and the gift of life he freely offers. We are affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention.


What should I expect when I visit?
Once you arrive on our campus, courteous attendants will assist you in any way possible to help you find a parking space and direct you to the area where you need to go. Greeters will welcome you to Lynwood with a warm smile and help you find your way inside our facilities.

Campus maps are available for you to get familiar with our church buildings and a printed map is available at the Welcome Center.


What should I wear?
There is not a dress code at Lynwood. Dress comfortably. While some attendees do wear their "Sunday best," most folks wear casual and comfortable clothes on Sunday morning. Sunday and Wednesday nights are always casual. Don't worry about what you wear... just come expecting a great experience!


What should I bring?
If you have a Bible, bring it with you to church. A Bible will help you follow along in Worship and in our Life Group Bible Study classes.


Where do my children go?
Lynwood has excellent preschool and children's ministries. Hosts at our Welcome Center just inside the entrance will assist you in getting your children to their class or department. We offer preschool childcare from bed babies through 5 years. Your children (grades 1-6) won't want to miss our Sunday School classes held simultaneously during our morning worship.


How small is Lynwood?
Lynwood may seem like a big church, but you'll really be interested in how small our church is. It's an environment where you'll find you can meet people and easily make friends.

We believe a major reason we can keep our church "small" is our Life Group Sunday Bible Study (Sunday School). In your Sunday School class you'll be a part of a small group of folks your own age, from preschool through adults. It's a great place to experience the wonderful fellowship of our church as you learn together and begin building relationships.


How do I become a member?
We invite you to unite with us in one of the following ways:

  • On Profession of Faith in Jesus Christ
    If you have professed faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, you may ask for membership through baptism by immersion.

  • By Transfer of Letter
    If you are a Christian and have been baptized by a Baptist church, we will receive you upon transfer of your membership.

  • By Statement of Your Christian Faith
    If you have professed faith in Jesus Christ, have been baptized by immersion, and are in full agreement with the doctrines of Lynwood Baptist Church, we will receive you upon the statement of your faith.
