LCBC Church

LCBC Church

Nonprofit, multi-site evangelical worship organization

Overview

LCBC Church is a non-denominational evangelical megachurch that operates across Pennsylvania using a multi-site model. It runs multiple campuses that share a single worship experience via video simulcasts from the Manheim campus, while each location has its own local pastor, worship team, and ministry opportunities. In addition to weekly worship services, LCBC offers kid and student ministries and community groups, with growth through mergers with other churches. The church is funded by donations and focuses on biblical teaching as its core doctrine. Its long-term goal is to help people encounter Jesus and grow in their faith through a unified, expansive network of campuses that provide local programming alongside a centralized message.
