About us
Lighthouse Tabernacle Church was established 20 years ago and now actively serves the cities of Mississauga, Oakville, Burlington, Milton, Brampton and surrounding areas. We believe in making Jesus the focus of our worship and all that we do. We are a body of believers who are kingdom-minded, Jesus-centric, and people-oriented. Our leaders, led by Pastor McEachron, have availed themselves to serving the needs of our community. If you are looking for home bible studies, in-home prayer meetings, counselling sessions, or just someone to talk to, we are here for you.
Come on in and feel at home.

Statement of Faith
THE Bible
The Bible, both Old and New Testaments, is the inspired, inerrant Word of God in the original writings, and has the absolute revelation of God's will for the salvation of mankind. It is the supreme, divine and final authority for all Christian faith, life and conduct. It gives a true history of the creation of the heavens, the earth and humanity. It contains the correct prophecy of the ages to come regarding the heavens and the earth and the destiny of mankind. (II Timothy 3:15-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21; 1 Thes. 2:13, Rev 20:11-15, Rev 21:1)
Our History
In February 2001, with just 15 members, Lighthouse Tabernacle Church began in Mississauga, Ontario. Service was then held at Erin Mills Senior School, 3546 South Common Court, for Sunday morning worship services, and the South Common Community Centre for Sunday nights and weeknight services.
In December 2002, Lighthouse purchased a 2.3-acre property along Ninth Line in Oakville, Ontario. The property has been fully paid off, thanks to the faithful worshippers, and will be used as a multi-faceted worship centre. The centre will serve residents of Mississauga, Oakville, Burlington, Milton, Brampton, and all other surrounding areas.
The church currently holds service at its semi-permanent location at 4060 Ridgeway Drive, Mississauga.
The name of our church has a special significance.
Lighthouse - A lighthouse stands in all types of weather; guiding those on the waters safely to shore. A child of God should stand as a beacon of light to guide people to Christ and rescue them from the awful ‘seas’ of sins.
Tabernacle - The word tabernacle originated with Moses when he prepared a tent as a place for God's presence to dwell. Lighthouse Tabernacle consistently encourages its adherents to make the church and their hearts spiritual dwelling places for the presence of God.
Church - The Church is the body of Christ. The Lord Jesus Christ is the Head of the Church. As members of Christ's church the members of the body belong to Him; called out of darkness to show forth His praises in this world.
