LCCT Update 9.26.2020

Hello Life Change Tullahoma Friends and Family!

Pastor Christian Watts here!

I want to encourage you to join us tomorrow morning @ 10:00 for worship @ Life Change Tullahoma via FB Live or YouTube. I will be sharing the final message in our "Connect For" series titled, "Connect For Care". I look forward to sharing in our time together!

Due to an uptick of Covid-19 cases in our area, all in-person gatherings have been cancelled September 27 - October 3rd. It is our hope and prayer that we will be able to resume all in-person gatherings on October 4th. 

As I have stated before, it is a real bummer when we feel it necessary to cancel worship services or activities. However, know that we believe that doing so is in the best interest of everyone that attends LCCT. We ask that you continue to pray with us for God's direction and guidance during these uncertain times.

As always, you can keep up with all scheduled events and activities via our LCCT Church Center App or by clicking HERE.

You are in my thoughts and prayers. Please let me know how I might pray for you more specifically, or if I can serve you in any way.

Have a blessed day!

Pastor Christian Watts

In-person gatherings at Life Change Tullahoma cancelled until October 4th

 Life Change Tullahoma Friends and Family,

Pastor Christian Watts here. It is with great sadness and disappointment that I share with you that I have contracted Covid-19. 

Covid-19 has been on the rise in Tullahoma and our surrounding communities for the past couple of weeks. Unfortunately, a small, but growing number of our attendees have contracted the virus. Although many of them contracted it away from LCCT, in light of my recent diagnosis we feel it is in everyone's best interest to not hold in-person gatherings again until Sunday, October 4th. Please note that we will be broadcasting our worship services via Facebook and YouTube on Sunday mornings at 10:00.

My symptoms have not been life-threatening, but they have been fairly severe. I would appreciate your prayers as I quarantine and work towards recovery.

There are three things I would like to ask you to prayerfully consider doing in the days ahead...

  1. Pray for our country, our communities, the families of those that attend LCCT, and for our LCCT Staff.
  2. Please tune in at 10:00 to Facebook or YouTube to join us LIVE on Sunday, September 20th and Sunday, September 27th.
  3. Please continue to give financially to support the ministry of Life Change Tullahoma. And if I may add, if you haven't been giving, or if you can give above and beyond your normal giving in the coming days, please do so.  Know that no matter what takes place, the ministry of Life Change Tullahoma does not stop. We will continue to work diligently to further God's Kingdom in spite of the challenges we are facing. And although we may have to discontinue in-person gatherings for a couple of weeks, the rent, utilities, staff salaries, and ministry expenses continue on. Thank you in advance for being obedient in this area.


Our church office will remain open Monday through Thursday from 9:00-5:00, and our Food Pantry will continue operating on Tuesday's and Thursday's from 4-6.

Remember that you can give financially 24/7 via the LCCT Church Center App, by dropping your tithes and offerings by the office during our weekly office hours, or via mail to the address below.

Life Change Church Tullahoma
414 Wilson Avenue, Suite 121
Tullahoma, TN 37388

Thank you for your time. I will miss you all greatly during these next couple of weeks, but I know God will bring us together again soon.

In His Service,

Pastor Christian Watts

Worship at the Lake Update 9.9.2020 - ALL ATTENDEES MUST REGISTER!

Hello LCCT Friends and Family!

Worship at Ovoca Lake is just 4 days away! We are working hard to make sure this years event is a great one!

If you have not registered, you need to do so ASAP. Also, all guest, staff, and volunteers need to register as well. Register now at https://lifechangetullahoma.churchcenter.com/registrations/events/443184.

Although we are praying that it does not rain, we are preparing just incase it does. We will be either renting or purchasing a large tent (or several smaller tents put together) so we have shelter if it were to rain. If you have an event canopy 10x10 or larger that you would be willing to let LCCT utilize please reply to this email and let me know. If it look like we will be getting a lot of rain, we will likely hold the event at LCCT @ 414 Wilson Avenue.

The main dish is BBQ Pork and will be catered by Crazy Daisy's. Drinks will be provided by Chick-fil-A. We are asking everyone to bring a side dish or dessert. Be sure to indicate what you are bringing as part of your registration. If you already registered and need to go back in and add the side dish or dessert you will be bringing, simply go back into your registration for worship at the lake and click edit. You will then be able to add or change whatever you need to within your registration.

We will also be renting portable restrooms including two handicapped restrooms.

Although this is a free event, it does come with a hefty cost for LCCT. Please remember that you can give your tithes or offerings at any time via the LCCT App or via the following link: https://lifechangetullahoma.churchcenter.com/giving. We have also setup a special fund if you would like to help in supporting our efforts for Worship at the Lake at https://lifechangetullahoma.churchcenter.com/giving/to/worship-at-ovoca-lake-donations.

For directions to Worship at Ovoca Lake CLICK HERE.

If you are registered to be baptized, please be sure to stop by the office today or tomorrow and pick up your baptism shirt. Pastor Christian will meet with all those being baptized in front of the stage at 10:10 am. All persons being baptized are encouraged to wear their LCCT baptism shirt, shorts, and shoes or sandals you don't mind getting wet.

We are looking forward to our time together!

Pastor Christian Watts

Are you ready for some good news? How about some great news?!!

 Hello {FIRST_NAME}! 

I am pumped!! I mean PUMPED!! To date we have 27 people that will be baptized at Worship at Ovoca Lake on Sunday, September 13th! Now, if that's not something to get excited about I don't know what is!

Worship at the Lake is going to be awesome! I mean even the weather is supposed to be awesome with temperatures in the mid 70's! Please be sure to register now if you plan to attend, and don't forget to bring a side dish to go with the BBQ! For more information or to register CLICK HERE

THIS SUNDAY WE BEGIN A BRAND NEW SERIES TITLED, "CONNECT FOR". This Sunday morning @ 10:00, Pastor Noah and I will be sharing the stage to share a message titled, "Connect for Community". This series will launch us into something new and awesome at LCCT called COMMUNITY GROUPS!

What are Community Groups? Glad you asked!

As LCCT continues to grow, we want to build community beyond what Sunday mornings can provide. That’s where Community Groups come in. Community Groups are a place for you to meet new friends, strengthen existing relationships, and grow in your relationship with Christ. We want to be a Church who worships together and who knows how to break bread together. 

Registration for Community Groups is open NOW! And let me give you a little hint... You may want to be registered for a Community Group before you come to Worship at Ovoca Lake. That's all I'll say about that for now. :)  For more information and to register for one of our eleven groups CLICK HERE.

Last but not least, it goes without saying that 2020 has been a year that many of us would like to forget. I mean, let's go ahead and put up the Christmas tree and get this year over with right? As difficult of a year that it has been, God always has a purpose and a plan. I want to encourage you to do something with these last four months of 2020.... JUMP IN WITH BOTH FEET! That's right! Let's all recommit ourselves to God, and gathering as His Church, and let's go out of 2020 puttin our praise on! I mean it! I truly believe it is time for the church to rise from the ashes and crush the head of the enemy! I also believe that if we will do that, all of "the things" we are worried about, stressed about, tired of, and fed up with will no longer be our focus. Our focus needs to be on Christ! We can't control what tomorrow brings but He can! 

It's time to get back to church! It's time to get back to gathering! It's time to get back to JESUS!

EXCITED FOR THE DAYS AHEAD!!

Pastor Christian Watts
