About this church
Lighthouse Church in Independence celebrates Sunday worship at 11 a.m. and holds its Shining the Light Bible study Wednesdays at 7 p.m. The visitor guide describes an exhilarating worship environment and Sunday School for younger children. The church sits behind Truman High School near 33rd and Hocker, with parking prepared for guests. Its identity is Pentecostal: official beliefs affirm the present work and gifts of the Holy Spirit, including Spirit Baptism and speaking in tongues.
The congregation seeks to be passionately committed to Christ, his cause, and the surrounding community. Weekly services, training, prayer, Bible study, preaching, seminars, and devotions are meant to equip people for everyday challenges. Fellowship takes shape through small groups, annual banquets, retreats, youth events, seminars, and recreational gatherings, while evangelistic work reaches locally and trains missionaries for ministry abroad. Lighthouse emphasizes a family atmosphere where people from different backgrounds can experience love and belonging. Public information leaves the children's care process, check-in, worship duration, clothing expectations, physical access, Communion, and streaming unanswered. Families should verify those practical points and any midweek calendar change before arriving.
