Our Story

LHBC started in 1968 with three couples who moved from the Midwest. Land was made available by Robert McCulloch to the first five churches to commit to building in town. LHBC was one of those first five.
     The current fellowship Hall was the original Sanctuary, and the current Worship Center was built in 1983. LHBC has been serving the community of Lake Havasu City for over 45 years.

​

     I moved back to Lake Havasu City in 2018 from Southern California. While there, I served at Hope International Bible Fellowship in Hollywood and Pomona California. Our team ministered to the homeless population in Los Angeles, Hollywood and Skid Row.

     Community Out Reach, is my passion and I’d like to invite all who are called, to join us at Lake Havasu Baptist Church. Through the Gospel of our Lord, Jesus Christ, we can truly share God's Love with our community...

Eric’s favorite song is “Glory To God Forever” by Steve Fee.
