Let's Start from the Beginning

Our Background

LWCC opened its doors in September of 2001 in the South Bronx within Alpha and Omega Christian Church located in 1829 Bathgate Ave. Bishop Dr. Eric Aguirre, felt a burning call to begin operating within his vocation alongside his beautiful wife Pastor Katherine Aguirre. As the year went on, attacks from the enemy were prominent and the doubtful words of those whom the pastors held dear continued to rise. In 2008, LWCC opened its doors at 1264 St. Lawrence Ave, located in the heart of the South Bronx - where its legacy would further develop and its transformative impact would continue to increase.

Fast forward to 13 years later, in the year 2021 - God called LWCC into a season of transitioning. The most difficult component behind the message God gave - would be to close our doors in the South Bronx and open new doors elsewhere. By the Grace of God, Bishop and Pastor Kathy once again heeded the voice of God. And today - LWCC continues to be the Church that makes a difference in the city of New Rochelle in Westchester County. Lord willing - as it is in accordance with His will - we now stay on property that will be out very own in the time to come.

Our Mission

The mission of our pastors is found directly in the WORD of GOD. Our slogan as a Christian Church is "love, mercy, and compassion" because we believe wholeheartedly that those three components are vital within the Body. Our mission is:

Isaiah 40:1

“Comfort, yes, comfort My people, says God.”

Our Vision

To create an environment where people from every walk of life, culture and nationality can come together as one to worship the king of kings And the Lord of Lords and be made whole. To empower Gods people and prepare them for the fulfillment of Gods will in their lives. To teach and impregnate Gods people with His Word.

we believe

Word of God

We believe that the Bible, Old and New Testaments, are God-breathed and that by the supernatural influence of the Holy Spirit, the biblical writers wrote the divine, trustworthy, infallible and authoritative Word of God, the only rule of faith and

practice. (Matthew 5:18; 24:35; 2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20-21).

God

We believe in the one true God who has revealed Himself as eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; distinguishable yet indivisible.(Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19; Luke 3:21-22; 2 Corinthians 13:14).

Jesus is 100% Man & 100% God

We believe in the Incarnation: the deity of Jesus of Nazareth – that He is Lord, the Son of the living God, was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, and is truly God and truly man (Luke 1:26-35; John 1:1, 14, 18; Isaiah 7:14; 9:6; Philippians 2:5-11; Revelation 1:7-8; 22:12-13, 16).

Substitutionary Atonement

We believe in the Substitutionary Atonement: that Jesus, the Christ died on the Cross for our sins, obtained eternal redemption for us, was buried, and was raised bodily from the dead on the third day, fulfilling Old Testament prophecy, and appeared to His disciples (Isaiah 53; Luke 24:1-3; Acts 1:1-3; 2:22-36; 1 Corinthians 15:1-8; Hebrews 9:12-14).

Jesus Ascended Bodily to Heaven

Salvation

We believe that the personal salvation of the repentant sinner, by grace through faith in the finished work of Christ on the Cross, produces the “Abundant Life” (Isaiah 53:4-5; Matthew 8:16-17; John 10:10; 19:30; Acts 17:30-31; Romans 5:1-2; Ephesians 2:8-9; 1 Peter 2:24).

Water Baptism

We believe in water baptism by immersion, as an obedient response of the new member to the command of the Lord (Matthew 28:19; Acts 2:38; 19:1-5).

Baptism in the Spirit

We believe in the baptism with the Holy Spirit, the promise of the Father for empowering new members to witness about Christ (Luke 24:49; Acts 1:4-8; 2:1-4).

Gifts of the Spirit

We believe that speaking in other tongues is an initial manifestation of the Baptism with the Holy Spirit that every new member has a right to expect, and that the gifts of the Holy Spirit are to operate in the local church until Jesus returns (Acts 2:4; 10:44-46; 19:6; Romans 12:6-8; 1 Corinthians 12:8-10; Ephesians 4:11).

The Church

We believe in the local church as the primary instrument of God in the earth to disciple men, and to establish the kingdom of God through prayer, fellowship, and the ministry of the Word (Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 2:42-47; 6:4; 20:28; Ephesians 4:11-16; 2 Timothy 2:2; Hebrews 10:25).

Humanity is in need of Salvation

We believe that mankind was originally created by God in His image, fell into sin through disobedience, marred God’s image, plunged all of creation into depravity, and made it impossible for man to save himself (Genesis 1:27; 3; Romans 5:12).

Second Coming

We believe that on the “Last Day”: Jesus will return in the “Second Coming,” there will be a resurrection of the dead including the righteous and the wicked, and after judgment the righteous will be rewarded, but the wicked will be punished (Daniel 12:2; John 5:28-29; 6:39, 40, 44, 54; 11:24; Acts 24:15; 1 Corinthians 15:51-52; 1 Thessalonians 4:16-5:11; Revelation 20:11-15; cf. also Matthew.
