Seal Beach Union Evangelical Church

Seal Beach Union Evangelical Church (SBUEC), led by Pastor Myung Hoon Joo, is a church established for Koreans living in Leisure World.

SBUEC focuses on two pastoral ministries. The first is grace ministry, where all believers enjoy and experience God’s grace. To this end, Pastor Myung Hoon serves the congregation through thorough, Bible-centered sermons and leading worship each service.

Sunday worship is a wellbalanced service of powerful ministry, praise and prayer.

The second ministry is the care and service ministry for seniors.

For the past year, SBUEC has planned monthly day trips and short term trips every quarter to give joy to lonely seniors. Recently, some church members went on a cruise to Mexico.

SBUEC holds a Korean senior health class every Thursday at 1 p.m. The class is beneficial to mental and physical health, and is a fun time. It is led by Pastor Myung Hoon.

One important aspect of SBUEC’s senior ministry is having the senior pastor personally visit and provide assistance to SBUEC members who live alone.

December holds times filled with grace and joy for SBUEC, such as a Christmas decoration village visit on Dec. 4 and Christmas Eve’s Sunday service on Dec. 24.

SBUEC will also hold a blessing service on New Year’s Eve, Dec. 31, where traditional food will be served, followed by a fun Yut game. There will also be a special surprise event on Dec. 21.

The church meets Sundays at 1 p.m. in Clubhouse 3 , Room 2. Members also meet every Thursday at 1 p.m. in Clubhouse 3, Room 4, for the Korean senior health class.

All Koreans are welcome to attend Sunday services or the weekly health class.
