GO
Answer the call to love our neighbors across the street and around the world. God is at work all around us, and He invites us to join Him. At Lake Forest, we believe mission is more than something we do through the church. It’s a way of living wherever God has placed us.
Whether you’re serving in our local community, caring for a neighbor, sharing your faith with a friend, or going across the world, there are opportunities to join God’s mission every day.

Meal Packing Weekend
Saturday October 24th & Sunday, October 25th, we’re hosting our largest church-wide serve event of 2026 and we need you to help make history! We are teaming up with Servants With A Heart with one massive, urgent goal: to pack over 160,000 nutritious meals to crush food insecurity both right here in our community and around the globe. Sunday, October 25th, our meal packing will take the place of each of our regular Sunday services.
Upcoming Mission Trips
We travel on Mission Trips not only to make a tangible difference but to deepen our own understanding of God's global mission.

Men’s Honduras Trip
February 6-13, 2027
Peña Blanca, Honduras
Join Lake Forest Church and Children’s Impact Network in Peña Blanca, Honduras, for a week of construction, service, and life-changing relationships. Together we'll help improve facilities at the Honduras Life Center, home to children who have been rescued and re-familied, while also investing in meaningful relationships with children, staff, and local believers. No construction experience is required. This trip is designed to help men grow in their faith, serve alongside one another, and experience the joy of participating in God's work of restoration and hope.
Summer Honduras Trip
June 17-24, 2027
Peña Blanca, Honduras
Join Lake Forest Church and Children’s Impact Network (CIN) in Peña Blanca, Honduras, for a unique opportunity to serve while building meaningful relationships with children at the Honduras Life Center next summer. Throughout the week, we partner with local believers to share the love of Jesus through Sidewalk Sunday Schools, food distribution, service projects, and time spent with children who have been rescued from difficult circumstances and welcomed into loving, Christ-centered families. Families, students, and adults serve side-by-side, creating opportunities to grow in faith, compassion, and understanding of God’s heart for vulnerable children. More than a mission trip, this is an invitation to witness stories of redemption firsthand, encourage the children and staff who call the Life Center home, and discover how God is working through His people in Honduras.
