HOLLYWOOD LIFE
TODAY // DESIGNATED IN-PERSON ELDER. Every Sabbath, we have an Elder available for prayer and to answer questions. Today’s designated in-person Elder is Alburn.
TODAY // APOCALYPSE SERIES / The Revelation of God in The Arts, Music, Film and Pop Culture. Today we continue our annual Apocalypse Sermon Series with a message from Eugene about how we don't need to go to the far reaches of the Universe to show love to one another. This message is inspired by the recent blockbuster film “Project Hail Mary” starring Ryan Gosling. Next week, Jill will give a message about three authors sharing their fundamentalist roots to provide roadmaps to wholeness.
AUGUST 1 // CHURCH LUNCH. Linger a little longer and enjoy a delicious lunch and great conversations. Join us at the Café after the worship service every First Sabbath.
