WOW! I don’t know about you, but I can already feel the energy that comes with the beginning of the true change of our growth campaign. People running around everywhere getting a million things done! Plus, demo on Worship Center East (WCE) begins on Friday and demo on the North Property begins on Saturday. Things are moving forward at warp speed!
So to keep everyone informed, here is a list of the many changes going on as related to The Cause.
- The Student Ministry is meeting in the Fellowship Hall for the duration of the remodel of the WCE. Thanks to Pastor Heath, Alisha, Scott, Chris, Sarah, Cameron, Adam, and Todd (and many others) for making that happen. Full band, full house, packed with the Holy Spirit and tons of fun. There was great energy last night!
- On Wednesdays in June and July, while the The Mix meets in the Fellowship Hall, we are trying to reserve the West Lot for student parking. If at all possible, park in other lots. (Note: Some still need to still park close due to health reasons and various other needs and that is totally fine.)
- For the duration of the WCE remodel, the Student Ministry offices have moved to A102. Pastor Heath, Alisha, and GiGi are all based out of that room now. Big thanks to Chris for making that happen.
- The Young Adult Ministry will be meeting on Thursdays at 7:30pm in the Garden Room starting tonight. They will be running their normal program, but with a different style of band. They will have more of an acoustic and light percussion sound. Thanks to Pastor LT, Scott, and Chris for figuring out the logistics of the worship experience in that room.
- On Wednesday, August 1, the Young Adults will move to Wednesday nights. They will still meet in the Garden Room, but will meet at 7pm in line with all our other ministries that evening. They will continue to have the same style of band – acoustic and light percussion. They will still do cookies and water as they have always done, but will also be able to take advantage of the LFA Café. They are also forming a teaching team and are still working on a few other creative ideas. We can’t wait to see what God has in store for our young adults! Huge thank you to Pastor Dustin and Kim who are taking on the brunt of all these changes while anticipating the birth of their first child. I know from experience that is not an easy task. Let’s Keep them in our prayers.
This is simply a summary of what is going on now, please feel free to reply if you have any questions or comments. As with any growth campaign, all things are subject to change rather quickly, but we will try to keep everyone in the loop as much as we can.
I have never worked with a team as committed, resolved, and knowledgeable as the team here at LFA. God has placed us together to do great things through the power of his Spirit. May God be praised!

The following letter was sent to all parents of teenagers in our Youth Department, The Mix Student Ministries:
Dear Wonderful Parent,
Have you heard? Our current “Youth Center” is getting ready for a makeover!
As a part of Lawton First Assembly’s “The Cause” campaign, we will be temporarily relocating our youth classes and services to the Fellowship Hall, located on the West end of our campus.
Beginning June 1st, the “Youth Center” will close for construction and the Fellowship Hall will become our temporary new home! We will continue to have the games, snack bar, and smoothie shop open. Youth classes and service times will not change. Sunday morning our mid high class will meet at 9:30 and our high school class at 11:00. Wednesday night, doors open at 6pm and pick up is at 8:30pm.
The makeover of the “Youth Center” will allow us to purpose our building in a more effective way for both Youth and Adults. The newly remodeled building will allow us to provide a more secure environment, more space to hang out and build friendships, a better quality for classroom space and a better quality for our services. When we re-open the building in August, we will be kicking off our Second Service Simulcast on Sunday mornings in the new area. For more information about “The Cause” you can visit thecause.lawtonfirst.org. Stay connected for more details and if you have questions or concerns you can contact us at 580.536.9325 or email themix@lawtonfirst.org
We ask for everyone’s patience with us during the time of this renovation. For the past few weeks, our staff has been working on a plan for the West end of our parking lot that will accommodate for students to be dropped off and our students who drive.
Again, my wife, Alisha, and I extend our gratitude for the opportunity to pour into your student’s life. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact the church offices 580-536-9325 or you can email us at themix@lawtonfirst.org.
In His Service,
Pastor Heath Corrales
Youth Pastor
