LABC Sunday Worship – September 7, 2025
A great day awaits as we gather in worship this morning at 10:00. It is Pride Sunday in Oakland and Pastor Jim’s sermon, “This is Our Story,” we lift up our sometimes costly commitment to the inclusion of all in the Body of Christ that is Lakeshore. Communion will be part of worship, Julian Nesbitt will sing and we will welcome our newest members, Lura Bublitz and Lee McDaniel.
