Playground Updates

Hi, Lighthouse family! My name is Chloe. Along with my parents, Nathan and Joanne, and my brother Joshua, I’ve been attending Lighthouse for almost ten years now. I’ve also been a Girl Scout for those ten years. As part of my Girl Scout Gold Award Project, I’ve had the privilege of partnering with Lighthouse to […]

Hope Amidst Turmoil

Dave Peredo Greetings Lighthouse! My name is Dave Peredo. If that name doesn’t sound familiar, that’s probably because we’ve never met. My wife Jamie, our three daughters (Leah, Hannah, and Sarah), and I started attending Lighthouse during the fall of 2020. Yep, we decided to make it confusing and add another David and Jamie to […]

A Foretaste of Heaven

Not Doing Fine During COVID-19  About a month into COVID, I wrote “Reflections on ‘Doing Fine’ During COVID-19” for this blog series. After all, for me, the first weeks of quarantine were full—even fun. Life in the Lee Commune was good. I started 3D printing face shields for the medical community and editing videos for […]

Reflections of God’s Grace During My Time in Japan

Hello Lighthouse Family! My name is Cindy, and I am a worrier. I am often full of fear, and nerves. You know those people who love to take on challenges, adventure, and trying out new things? Yeah, that’s definitely not me. So when I felt the tuggings in my heart to go overseas to Japan […]

God’s Grace in Giving Us Siblings

Hi Lighthouse Family! This is Allie, Mikey, and Lauren Tsai. If you do not already know our family, we also have another younger brother named Jonah. But he is off playing Legos and eating chips right now. 🙂 When quarantine first began, we were left with a lot of free time. Suddenly, we weren’t racing around getting to school, or church, or our other activities. At first, we felt sorry for ourselves as we began to realize that it was going to be a while […]

Say Grace Sticker Project

Hi Church Family! My name is Peter Chen, and my wife Jenn and son Garret have been attending Lighthouse for the last ten years. I also serve as the deacon overseeing Mercy Ministry. Shortly after the pandemic hit in March, my workload dropped off quite a bit as a graphic designer. This was not so […]

We Become What We Behold

Hi Lighthouse! For those of you who don’t know me, my name is Joycelyn and I’m a part of Praxis, the young adult fellowship at Lighthouse. Now that we’re approaching the end of 2020, I wanted to share a story of how God has been gracious to me through the means of COVID and the […]

Waiting on the Lord

COVID has added various challenges to all our lives this year. For me personally, it significantly delayed my visa process. What I expected to take 3-5 months actually took 1 year 2 months and 13 days. To the many of you who have been praying for me and supported me financially THANK YOU for your […]

Love in a Box

Hello dear church! My name is Victoria Hays and I’m a wife and a mother to 3 sweet girls and 2 foster kids. My husband and I live in Torrance, CA, but before I married my husband I lived in Belarus, a former USSR country in Eastern Europe. I wanted to share with you a […]
