Community Church

This week Community Church will move from its look at the Gospel of John to what is often described as the scandalous message of James. This will begin a five-week series on what it means to “do church.” It is perhaps ironic that this series about doing church comes at a time when it isn’t safe to gather together in person. Although Community Church is worshipping virtually, the scandalous message of James and the good news of Jesus as recorded in Mark’s Gospel remind believers that they don’t go to church, they are church and are called to do church no matter where it is.

Every week Pastor Johan Dodge reminds all who are present that the word Gospel means “good news,” and if the word of God is being used in a way that isn’t good news, well then it isn’t the true good news.

As the pandemic continues to evolve, Community Church has returned to virtual worship on Zoom and Facebook. People can watch the service on Facebook @ CommunityChurchLeisureWorld.

Those who are not on Facebook can contact the church office at

(562) 431-2503 or leisurewccsue@yahoo.com to receive the Zoom link.
