Take a moment to hear our pastors’ hearts for this season at LiFT Church. This short message will help you understand where we’re headed, why it matters, and how you can be part of what God is building. 

Our story goes as far back as 2019, when Pastor Drew and Lauren Freyder launched LiFT Church in Salisbury, Maryland, inside the Regal Theater. From the very beginning, our vision has been simple and unwavering: to impact lives by making church as accessible as possible to as many people as possible.

In 2023, we celebrated a major milestone as we moved into our first permanent facility — a home where countless people have encountered Jesus, found community, and begun to walk in purpose.

At LiFT, we exist for one thing — lifting up the name of Jesus until all of Delmarva knows they are lifted by Jesus, to become lifters of Jesus, to lift others for Jesus. We are grateful for all God has done, but we believe the best is yet to come!

Missions

Local, National, Global

Through your generosity, the 2026 Legacy Offering will help us bless families right here in Delmarva, support local LiFT City Serves, and provide care and shelter for children at our Care Point in Port Loyola, Belize. Your giving will help us reach people locally and beyond.

Generations

We believe in investing in the next generation, not just for tomorrow, but for today. This year’s Legacy Offering will help us invest in future leaders and opportunities for the next generation through:

SEU at LiFT Church Scholarships — Helping future pastors, leaders, and church builders receive the training and education they need to be equipped for ministry without financial barriers standing in their way.

YTH Camp Scholarships — Helping ensure that no student misses out on a life-changing encounter with God because of finances. We believe in raising young people who will boldly carry the name of Jesus into their schools, communities, and cities.

VBS — Helping create an unforgettable experience where kids can discover who Jesus is, grow in their faith, and build friendships. Your giving will help provide the resources, supplies, and experiences needed to make VBS possible and share the love of Jesus with the next generation.

LiFT Church

Through the 2026 Legacy Offering, we have the opportunity to invest in the future of LiFT Church by paying down debt and moving toward greater financial freedom. Your giving will help strengthen the foundation of this house, allowing us to be better positioned for all that God wants to do through LiFT Church in the years to come. We’re not just investing in a building; we’re investing in a legacy of faith that will impact lives for generations to come.
