Come & SERVE
We want everyone who calls Living Faith their home church to SERVE God and God’s people by discovering and using their spiritual gifts, their time and resources to benefits others. That is why we have a number of ministries that will provide you opportunities to SERVE God, your friends in Christ and our community in Brick and Ocean County.

LFBC is a church that has a heart for missions, following the Lord's instructions to the disciples:
"Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature."

Currently we are associated with 13 mission outreaches in the USA and 11 other countries under various mission boards. We support our mission family through the Faith Commitment Outreach Program where we ask the congregation to give over and above their tithe to the program.

STAR HOSPITALITY MINISTRY
The purpose of the 5 Star Hospitality Ministry at LFBC is to foster a culture of friendliness and Christian love for every one attending our church. The 5 Star Hospitality Team understands the importance of making your visit to LFBC a pleasant one. We want you to feel welcome and connect easily with others at church. We are eager to know you and express Christ’s love to you with genuine, heartfelt warmth. Please stop by the Connection Center stand to receive a Welcome packet and gift from one of our team members as a remembrance of your visit with us.
USHERING MINISTRY
Ushering at LFBC is a multi-faceted ministry. Along with the Hospitality team our ushers act as Ambassadors of LFBC to all who enter our church.
Teams of men and women both young and old are available before, during, and after the church service to perform many tasks. Before the service you”ll find them handing out bulletins with a hearty handshake and warm smile, assisting those needing help coming into church, directing attenders to appropriate places and people, and helping you find a place to sit.
Worship Team
Music is a gift from God, to be used for His glory and to draw people into worship. We are a congregational singing church and strive to have music that reflects God's love for us, our thankfulness for His grace, and which encourages everyone to make a joyful noise onto our Lord.

Serving People In Need
SPIN is designed to show the love of Jesus Christ by meeting the physical, spiritual and emotional needs of those who are lacking. This includes the poor, the hungry, the sick, the housebound and those who need help with social resources.
DORCAS Ministry
The name of our ministry comes from the woman in Acts 9:36 whose name was Dorcas, a woman "full of good works" and known for "the coats and garments that she made". It is our goal to give practical assistance to our missionaries and to foster an active interest in missions work among the women of the church. We meet once a week at LFBC to work on crafts, sewing, needlework, and other projects for our missionaries. In addition, we supply items needed for some of our local nursing homes as a gesture of love to the elderly. Our meetings are a time for fellowship and devotions, as well as an opportunity to pass on our skills to other women who desire to learn.
In Philippians 4:3, Paul commands the church to "help those women who labor" in serving others. We invite you to join us in our labor of love
