Deepen Your Faith!

By practicing the way with us this summer.

Growing the Lighthouse!

We are thrilled with the growth of the Lighthouse over the past four years. We’ve taken a deep dive into Disciple Making Movements globally and discovered the great value of the intentional mobilization of the Body of Christ. We have been meeting in small, more intimate groups in homes around our county. Then gathering as a larger group once a month, to corporately worship, celebrate and pray together. We cherish and value the leading and empowerment of the Holy Spirit. Our leadership team and faith family have created new and fresh vision, mission and values to move us forward.

Our Vision
The Lighthouse is a beacon in our community. We are a discipleship hub and family of faith communities, shining the light of Jesus in plain sight to draw others to Christ. Grounded in scripture, prayer and the love and light of Christ, we journey together as learners, teachers, agents of change and harvesters for Christ, leveraging our creativity, gifts and skills in a modern world.

We hold dearly the values of becoming Christlike in all things, and operating in a spirit of humility, prayer and unity.

Joy Unspeakable!

One of our summer baptisms with a new follower of Jesus! Lord, may we multiply your Kingdom!

Our focus is on cultivating, authentic, faith filled, disciples of Christ who care for the people and community around them through serving and sharing Christ’s light and love. And our goal is the creation of multiple, healthy, Christian faith communities, who in turn are trained to serve, love and share Jesus even more! If you would like more information about the Lighthouse, or would like to check us out, please contact Pastor Sandy at 705 457-2262 or email her at sandy@lighthousehaliburton.ca. We’d love you to join us on this adventure!
