Love Local

Serve Our Community

Love Lake Norman is more than a place to gather—it’s a community committed to helping people find and follow Jesus in everyday life. Our mission extends beyond the walls of a building as we love, serve, and build relationships with our neighbors in Cornelius and beyond. Join us in making a lasting impact where we live, work, and play.
