  • Lori Shaw, Music Minister

    Lori Shaw returned to LBF in 2017 to serve as a music minister.

From this marriage she has two beautiful children, McKenzie and Jordan. Lori was once a music major, but found her passion teaching children. This is a perfect avenue for her to share music. She currently teaches third grade at Bartley Elementary in the Fulton School District.

Our Mission

Our mission is to be a community of believers in Jesus Christ who come together to share our talents and gifts to worship God, grow as Jesus' disciples, and effectively spread God's love in word and action. 


Our vision is to be a multigenerational church fully engaged in God's mission, living out our core missional values in order to be the presence of Christ in our growing community and beyond. 


Our values include worship, fellowship (inward and outward), education (discipleship/spiritual growth), service (missions/using spiritual gifts), stewardship (financial/time/talent-whole life), and prayer (discernment of God's presence and future).
