Community Church

The annual “Sock it to Me” sock drive for veterans will run through Oct. 24-Nov. 7. The missions team is currently receiving donations of new white men’s and women’s socks or monetary donations toward a bulk purchase. The socks will be delivered to the Long Beach VA hospital. People can bring socks or monetary donations to Sunday worship or to the church office Monday-Thursday.

Over the last 18 months, many people might have felt like they have gone nowhere and done nothing. Discipleship isn’t always about distance or achievement, but rather a different way of looking at the world that brings personal peace and peace to others.

This week, Community Church will continue its study of the characteristics of discipleship with a look at what it takes to follow Jesus “on the way.” The first disciples were known as the people “on the way.” Community Church will look at the ways of Jesus and what it means for believers even now, to be people on the way.

Community Church is a place where everything is designed with the first-time participant in mind. Those who have not felt welcome in church in the past, or have never participated in church before are welcome to attend. All are welcome here.

In person worship is available for those who are “masked, vaxxed and relaxed.” Virtual services will still be available for those who are not ready to come back yet.

Each week, Pastor Johan Dodge reminds all who are present that the word Gospel means “good news,” and if the word of God being used in a way that isn’t good news, then it isn’t the true Gospel.
