Are you married or in a committed
relationship with someone from a different
faith tradition? If so, please call the church
office (310-395-0977) and either speak with
our office manager or leave a voicemail
message. We are planning a social for the
Spring to honor those of you in "mixed
marriages" and our records need to be
updated. We appreciate your help in this.
