"Praising God with Many Ethnicities is Like Being In Heaven"
The Korean Times, Los Angeles
One of our Korean members found the article from The Korean Times, Los Angeles:
"It talks about the church just as what you have been telling the church.
It says the church is having its 125th anniversary this year. It has immigrants from 15 different countries,
and the church is honoring their ethnicities with the flags inside the sanctuary.
The church originally had caucasian middle class (lawyers, doctors, & politicians) congregation.
As people moved out of the downtown area in the 60's, the church voted to stay in the city
and has embraced the ethnic communities for the last 40 years. The church is hoping to have more Korean members."
