NORTHSIDE CAMPUS
FALL 2027
For over 100 years, E91 has been committed to helping people take next steps with Jesus right where they are. As our church family has grown, so has our calling to be the local church in more local places. That's why we're excited to share that E91 is launching a Northside Campus in the fall of 2027, led by Lake Webb as Campus Pastor.
This isn't about building a bigger church—it's about making it easier for people across our community to connect with Jesus and each other. Many in our church family who live north of 146th Street have been living out relational discipleship in their neighborhoods, reaching neighbors and friends with the gospel. But when it comes time to invite people into a worshiping community, the 25-30 minute drive has been a real barrier. We're moving north because God is already at work there, and we want to meet people where they are.
Lake has been a vital part of E91's worship and teaching ministry, and we're grateful for his and Lindsay's willingness to step into this new role. In the video below, Lake and Lead Pastor Rick Grover sit down to talk about the vision for Northside Campus, why E91 is taking this step, and what it means for our church family moving forward. We invite you to watch, pray with us for this next chapter, and start asking God how you might be part of what He's doing on the Northside.
Northside Campus FAQs
Why is E91 starting a Northside Campus?
This vision began when members of our church family living north of 146th Street shared a challenge: as they were building relationships and sharing Jesus with neighbors and friends, people were hesitant to drive 25-30 minutes to join them at our Castleton location. We believe God is calling us to make it easier for people to connect with a local worshiping community right where they live. This isn't about being a bigger church—it's about being the church in more places.
Where will the Northside Campus be located?
We're currently exploring rental space options in the Noblesville area. We're committed to launching debt-free, which means unless the Lord provides in an unexpected way, we'll start by renting a facility rather than purchasing property. This also means our launch team will be setting up and tearing down each week—a great opportunity to serve together as we build this new campus.
When will the Northside Campus launch?
We're planning to launch in the fall of 2027. This timeline allows Lake to transition well from his current role as Interim Student Pastor, gives him the focus needed to prepare his heart and build relationships in the Northside community, and aligns with our church's fiscal planning. We know waiting is hard, but we believe this is the right timing to do this well.
Who is Lake Webb and why is he leading this campus?
We’re so glad Lake will be continuing as a full-time member of our E91 pastoral staff! Many of you already know Lake from his years serving at E91—starting as an intern, becoming a worship resident, then Associate Worship Pastor, and joining our teaching team. We've watched God develop Lake's gifts in worship, preaching, and pastoral leadership. As we prayed about who should lead Northside Campus, it became clear that God has been preparing Lake for this role. He and his wife Lindsay have a sons Levi, and Jameson, and are eager to be part of the Noblesville community and be fully present where they'll be serving.
Will this affect the Castleton campus?
The Castleton campus will continue strong! In fact, as some of our current members transition to serve at Northside, we'll have new opportunities for people to step into serving roles here. If you've been thinking about getting involved in kids ministry, worship, hospitality, or other areas, this is a great time to jump in. We're not dividing—we're multiplying our impact across our region.
How can I be part of the Northside Campus launch team?
We're looking for 100 people to serve as the launch team—not just 100 people who will attend, but 100 people committed to serving in areas like kids ministry, worship, production, setup/teardown, hospitality, small groups, and more. Starting in fall 2026, we'll be sharing more details about how you can get involved. For now, the best thing you can do is pray about whether God is calling you to be part of this mission.
Does this mean E91 is no longer focused on church planting?
Not at all! E91 has planted 75 daughter churches, and we remain committed to that vision. The Northside Campus is in addition to, not instead of, our church planting focus. We see both campus expansion and church planting as ways God is calling us to help more people take next steps with Jesus.
How can I support this vision right now?
Prayer is the most important thing you can do today. Pray for Lake and Lindsay as they settle into their new home in Noblesville and embrace this season of ministry with a growing young family. Pray for the Northside community and for God to be preparing hearts there. Pray for our church family at Castleton as some transition to serve at Northside. And pray about your own role—whether God might be calling you to serve on the launch team or to step up in new ways at Castleton. This is a kingdom movement, and it requires all of us seeking God's will together.
