This week, Community Church will look at the Gospel of Luke. The message title is “God Has Chosen You” and is based in Luke 9:28-43a.

The “Gospel” means “good news.” In the past, Community Church has had people share privately and sometimes publicly that they have experienced the Gospel as bad news, as exclusionary and judgmental. Community Church strives to grow into a community where all are welcome and can experience the Gospel as good news.

Community Church will continue to hold online services throughout this month, but like a seed planted months ago, it looks forward to breaking forth into new life with a return to inperson worship with an outdoor Ash Wednesday Ceremony on March 2 at 10 a.m. There will be an option for drive-through ashes until noon for anyone who does not feel safe gathering in groups. Pastor Johan Dodge began to do a drive through ashes service over 10 years ago in other church settings and will continue to move the tradition forward this year.

Community Church expects to hold services indoors again on March 6 at 9:50 a.m. It will continue to offer virtual worship on Zoom and Facebook.

Pastor Johan will lead a five- week Lenten Study livestreamed and in person on Thursdays, March 10, 17, 24, 31 and April 7 at 1 p.m. The study is titled, “In the Presence of Jesus: A 40-Day Guide to the Intimacy with God You’ve Always Wanted” by Paul Bane and Matt Litton. The book is available on Amazon, but it is not necessary to purchase a copy to participate. Those interested in joining should contact the church office at (562) 431-2503 to register.

Community Church is on Facebook for livestreamed worship @communitychurchleisureworld.
