Next Level

You’re not who you were, but not yet who you’re becoming.  Next Level is a community for those navigating the big questions of career, relationships, and purpose.

LAC 3:6TEEN

is the Teens ministry at Love Alive Church, servicing our children 11-18 years old. This is a teen led ministry, where they create lessons, teach lessons, plan events, and run the service. Our ministry meets in the Connect Lounge following worship and serves as a space where teens can depend on their relationship with God and each other through practical lessons that apply to their context. The adults in the space serve as mentors, facilitators, and encouragers to their development and maturation in the Lord.

UNLSHD WORSHIP

is a movement. We believe worship is more than music—it’s a lifestyle of love, honor, and surrender. Our team has been called to create sacred spaces through our sound, spirit, and service. We value excellence rooted in humility, unity fueled by love, and growth shaped by grace. Together, we lift His name higher, not just on stage, but in every part of our lives.

FAMILY CARE

is a ministry dedicated to supporting individuals and families through life’s challenges by providing spiritual, emotional, and practical care.  Family Care ministry provides prayer support, counseling or hospital and home visits.   Our goal is to reflect Christ’s love by walking alongside people in both times of need and times of growth.

FACILITIES & RECOVERY

This team specifically handles any immediate needs of the church in terms of cleanliness and presentation. They offer assistance during Sunday service and in other events, such as checking and refreshing bathrooms, taking out the trash during/after events etc. They are essential to any of the other teams because they can also serve as servers with meal prep. They make sure the floors are dry during rainy weather. We also make sure the sanctuary is free of any trash or water bottles in between services. This is essential to maintain and preserve the needs of the church during any service/event.

GLOBAL IMPACT

Our Love Beyond Borders Missions Team partners with OneChild in Choluteca, Honduras—a ministry dedicated to ensuring every child in poverty has a loving champion. Through child sponsorship, our congregation helps provide children and their families with vital nutritional, medical, and educational support. Each summer, our team travels to Honduras to meet sponsored children, connect with local pastors and staff, and host Vacation Bible School and Sports Day activities. It’s a meaningful opportunity to serve others while experiencing personal and spiritual growth.

LOCAL IMPACT

Our Love the City Local Impact Team is being revitalized to form a dedicated core team that will be committed to planning and leading meaningful community outreach opportunities for the church. This team will help mobilize our church family to serve in a variety of ways that include: collecting and distributing clothing and hygiene items, feeding, and supporting our unhoused neighbors, partnering with local elementary schools in the Park Forest community, and empowering our community through financial literacy and wellness seminars. We’re looking for passionate people and fresh ideas to help expand our impact beyond the four walls of the church.

As one of the first steps in helping individuals Find Family, our Small Group Ministry creates opportunities for meaningful connection, authentic relationships, and consistent spiritual growth beyond the Sunday experience.  Each group offers a welcoming environment where individuals can study the Word, share life, and support one another through every season. Whether meeting in person or virtually, Small Groups are designed to cultivate community and deepen discipleship in a way that reflects our commitment to helping every member live out our church mission: Find Family. Discover Purpose. Change the World.

COMMUNICATIONS TEAM

The Communications Ministry exists to creatively and clearly share the vision, events, and messages of Love Alive Church. Through digital media, print, social platforms, and in-service announcements, we ensure that every voice, story, and opportunity within the church is communicated with excellence.
