February 2023

Coming together to network, share and pray for one another
 
Creating Area Maps together
 

Campus to Church Movements

We have formed a network of ministries within the Los Angeles area to bridge the gap of college ministry to after graduation. Our desire is to help graduates from college campuses transition well into post college life as a Christian and be connected and involved into a local church.

Representatives from Bridges LA, Destino LA, InterVarsity, Asian American Christian Fellowship, Navigators, Faculty Bridges, Cru Campus, and Cru City all joined together as one.  We spent the morning sharing about our local ministries and praying for one another.  We also created area maps to share where are respective ministries were located and have a way to view how we could come together in those areas.

Please pray for our continued unity in the Los Angeles area and for ways we can serve one another to help college students love Jesus in their workplace and be involved in a local church community.


Joseph and members of the Coalition recently met via zoom to connect, pray for one another and plan for the future.
 

Christian Foster Care Coalition

We are part of a network of ministries and agencies that help Christians come alongside kids and youth in foster care.

RIGHT NOW…
THERE ARE 21,000 CHILDREN IN THE FOSTER CARE SYSTEM IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY.

Our vision is to come together around the common goal of supporting, praying for, and   networking with each other. We also come together to educate the local church/Christian community about the kids in foster care who desperately need them and how to get involved. Our deeply held desire is to connect the family of Christ to kids without stable families, so that children and youth living in LA foster care can be protected, befriended, prayed for, guided, supported, mentored, encouraged, assisted, and most of all loved, as Christ loved us.


This February Joseph had the incredible joy of baptizing Aleeya! She has been growing and learning about Jesus for years now and is a sponge –always asking questions and desiring to know all she can.  When she came to us and asked if she could be baptized, we knew she was ready! She had told us many times before she only wanted to be baptized when she was confident that she wanted to follow Jesus all the days of her life.  We were so proud of her as she read her favorite verse to the church body and why she chose it.  Joseph had the blessing of baptizing her and we are so thankful for the many friends and family who came to be a part of this joyous day and celebrate with us!

Thank you also so much for your continual prayers for us and the ministry here in Los Angeles.  We are truly grateful for your prayers.
