Living Word Church
Burkhardt Campus.
One church. Two locations.
Our Burkhardt Campus is a welcoming community on Dayton's east side where you can worship, hear biblical teaching, build relationships, and grow in your relationship with Jesus.

03
What to Wear
Whatever you're comfortable wearing. You'll see plenty of jeans and casual clothes, and there's no dress code to worry about.

No Pressure
You won't be singled out or put on the spot. You're welcome to participate at your own pace while you get to know Living Word.
Good to Know
Parking around the Burkhardt Campus can be limited, so giving yourself a few extra minutes before service is a good idea.
