Key Statements
The Bible is a romance, in the most pure and the most holy sense,
of a universal couple—God in Christ as the Bridegroom
and God’s redeemed people as the bride—
the goal of the Lord’s recovery.
The Lord’s primary work in the recovery
is His genuine work to prepare us to be His glorious bride;
apart from the continual, dispositional
sanctification spoken of in Ephesians 5:26,
there is no way for the bride to be prepared and, hence,
no way for Revelation 19:7-9 to be fulfilled.
As used in the New Testament, the word mature refers to
the believers’ being full-grown and perfected in the life of Christ,
which they received at the time of regeneration.
The Lord’s recovery is for the preparation of the bride of Christ;
ultimately, we will be conformed to be the wonderful Shulammite, who,
as the duplication of Solomon, is the greatest and ultimate figure
of the New Jerusalem as the counterpart, the bride, of Christ.
- New Entry and Exit System for the Meeting Hall:
As we announced several times, for the safety of the saints and according to the recommendation of the City of Lomita, the gate on 241st Street will be used only for entering, and the gate on Narbonne Avenue will be used only for exiting.
Please be aware that when exiting through the Narbonne Avenue gate, you must make a right turn only. Turning left is not only unsafe, but also illegal due to the presence of a solid yellow centerline, which may not be crossed.
Also, you should not park in the right-hand passage leading to the Narbonne Ave gate. However, you may park on the opposite (left-hand) side, as one half of the gate will be open while the other half will always remain closed.
We are currently installing the necessary signs to help everyone adjust to this new system. Although this change may cause some inconvenience, we kindly ask for your full understanding and cooperation, as it is being implemented for the safety of all our saints.
- Blending Lunch at the Park: We will have a blending lunch and picnic at De Portola Park (25615 Lazy Meadow Dr, Torrance 90505) next month on June 8, 2024, from 12:30 PM to 3:30 PM. Details will follow.
- General Services for the month of June 2025:

1) Lord’s Table Set-up, 2) Love Feast Set-up, 3) Kitchen Clean-up, and 4) Hall Cleaning.
* Please remember to organize and clean the snack & coffee area including the coffee machine.
