In Memoriam
We honor the memory of faithful members and leaders who have served Lake Shore Baptist Church throughout its history. Their contributions continue to shape our community of faith.
The staff and leadership at Lake Shore Baptist Church are dedicated to serving a community of Christians who are attempting to discover, articulate, and embody the meaning of the gospel. This team works behind the scenes and in front of the congregation to ensure that worship, study, and fellowship remain vibrant and accessible. From coordinating Sunday school and Wednesday night suppers to overseeing the labyrinth and prayer ministries, each leader brings a unique set of gifts. Their shared commitment to an inclusive community helps create a welcoming environment where all are invited to explore faith, ask questions, and grow together in hope.
The pastoral staff provides spiritual guidance and practical support for the many ministries that make up the church's life. Working alongside the deacons and ministry coordinators, they help shape worship services, sermon series, and educational opportunities for adults, youth, and children. This leadership team also oversees the church's missional outreach, both locally in Waco and beyond. Their approach is collaborative and grounded in the belief that every member has a role to play in the body of Christ. Through prayer, teaching, and pastoral care, they walk alongside individuals and families through all seasons of life.
Behind the pulpit and the programs, a dedicated group of administrative and support staff keeps the church running smoothly day to day. From managing the newsletter and online service access to maintaining the pictorial directory and church roster, these individuals handle the essential details that make congregational life possible. The church office serves as a hub for communication, connecting members with resources, event schedules, and each other. Their work reflects a deep commitment to hospitality and organization, ensuring that both long-time members and newcomers can easily find their place in the community and participate in the church's many offerings.
The leadership body at Lake Shore Baptist Church is also shaped by volunteers who serve on committees, teach classes, lead music, and coordinate missions. These individuals give generously of their time and talents, helping to sustain the church's vibrant worship life and outreach efforts. The congregation is encouraged to consider how their own gifts might be used in service to others, whether through the choir, the labyrinth ministry, or adult seminars. This shared model of leadership reflects the church's belief that the gospel is best embodied when everyone contributes. Together, staff and volunteers form a tapestry of service that supports the entire church family.
