Lakewood / Parkland is shaped by movement. With Joint Base Lewis–McChord nearby, people arrive from across the country and around the world, while others move on almost as soon as they’ve settled in. It is one of the more diverse areas in the region, yet constant transition can make rootedness feel fragile. In a place like this, steady presence becomes a gift. Our Lakewood / Parkland cohort brings leaders together who desire to reflect the faithful presence of Christ, creating spaces where people are known, sincerely welcomed, and reminded that they belong, offering stability and warmth within a community that is always in motion.
If you are serving in Lakewood or Parkland and feel drawn to this kind of steady, relational work, we invite you to connect with Vic DeLeon. There is always room at the table.
