In Our Prayers
We are sending our prayers and best wishes to our faithful choir member, Kreshnik Zhabjaku, who is recovering from surgery.
Our youth and adult volunteers welcome the prayers of the congregation as they leave tomorrow for the 2025 Service Trip in the Dominican Republic.
For relief agencies and mission partners who are working to care for at-risk individuals in perilous times, may the Holy Spirit surround them, defend them, and encourage them as they continue the important work they are called to do.

For MIDNIGHT RUN donations, please proceed further down the hall (last door on the right). LAC is proud to support local community mission partners and we are grateful for your continuous generosity and support.

VOLUNTEER LIVESTREAM OPERATORS NEEDED!
Ever wonder how LAC's weekly worship livestream gets produced? Behind the scenes each week, Christina O'Neill is running this video control board, keeping our cameras fixed on the action.
If you have any interest in learning how to operate this technology and serving as a backup operator, we would love to train you. The equipment is user-friendly, and your contribution would be a great help to our worship ministry.
Email Rev. Bynum at pbynum@lacny.org if you are interested!
