Spiritual atmosphere where Word of God is taught as the Bible says; easy access; free parking; beautifully decorated Cathedral; and clean restrooms. The Mass choir sings Spirit filled gospel music and an anointed message from our Bishop or any one of his sons or Elders that shares. Service is usually two hours at two schedules 8am and 11am.
July 4, 2021 {UPDATE] only one service at 10am. It's the first in-person service since the pandemic stop in-person services at West Angeles. One on the requirements is pre-registration of the number of people in your party attending. I'm looking forward to being physically in church together with other members giving praise to God for bring us back together again.
January 23, 2022 [UPDATE] West Angeles Church of God In Christ (WESTA) has stopped in-person services again because of concerns for members and guest over the current surge in cases going up...new variant Omicron. However, you can still find service for Sunday at 10am on YouTube. The Co-Pastor, Charles Blake, II, usually starts with an update and view of the construction of the new Family Life Building, the addition being built, followed by inspirational praise and worship music, then a message from Bishop Blake, Pastor Charles or Pastor Lawrence Blake or a guest with a Message. It airs on YouTube at 10am. I have been able to catch a repeat during the week a few times. Get Connected to God and grow stronger in your spiritual life, personal life, and emotional life (spirit, body and soul). Get to know Father God, Jesus the Son of God and God the Holy Spirit. Accept the love into your heart. Your Eternity...
Read moreOrientation for their upcoming senior housing "The Curve" located on Crenshaw Blvd and 54th Street. Everyone was nice, I left early because questions were being asked directly to those on the podium instead of writing the questions on the colored index cards provided everyone. Became irritating because those conducting the orientation allowed those in attendance to ask questions out of turn. I extremely skeptical about the "lottery" process. Doesn't give much of an opportunity for those in need of senior housing over those who were there as curious onlookers. As stated, there will be 70 available units which consists of Studio and 1 bedroom units. Everyone should be aware that live-in aids have their own bedrooms and bathrooms. How can a minor child be a live-in caregiver? Most seniors don't want to reside where families and children reside. I definitely don't want to. I seeking safe, friendly, quiet senior living with accommodations suitable for seniors only. I could have gone to my monthly ministry meeting. It was a waste of valuable time. The room was cold when asked if the air could be adjusted, two of the hostesses stated they were hot as were others. A room full of seniors whom suffer with arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis n other chronic conditions shouldn't be in such cold conditions. There were open doors n having the AC on was inconsiderate. I'm coughing as I'm writing n posting this review. Since I'm posting this review, I guarantee I won't be considered for a unit in "THE CURVE" I'm giving an...
Read moreAlthough, we know we will not live forever, it’s such a difficult emotional moment when you’re told a parent has died. This was the case for me when my mother transitioned unexpectedly. Then came the process of honoring her memory in the way she lived as a Christian. It so happened that on the same day the news arrived a friend connected with me and he directed me to West Angeles Church for her services. I’m so eternally grateful for that call as this was the most amazing experience. From the onset every detail was explained clearly. What was required of me was made known, while that may seem like standard communication, but after calling other locations apparently it’s not. West Angeles Bereavement Team is exceedingly professional and I felt well taken care of and supported during this very tragic time. I was provided with a plaque commemorating the journey of my mother, a recording of the service and above all else a stress, drama, and worry free memorial. The services and repast was held inside the Crystal Room, which is large and spacious. The West A team conducted the service so that I could breathe while still grieving. It was just amazing. The meal serviced was delicious especially the green beans and rice. The ministry team serviced guests (albeit we were a small group) with love. I felt the love and care. This review has taken me a while to write, but I’m so incredibly thankful and if you’re journey calls for such arrangements know that you’ll be in good hands at...
