LSS of Southern California Offers a Basket of Hope on Easter
Elizabeth Gomez first came to Lutheran Social Services of Southern California’s Orange County center three years ago after her husband lost his job. As their primary source of income disappeared, Elizabeth and her family became desperate for groceries and other essentials.
Noisy Offering Ministry
Noisy Offering is, as its name indicates, noisy. On the Second Sunday of each month, we ask members to join us in bringing spare change, as a symbol of the change we hope to make in our communities. When your quarters, pennies, nickels and dimes drop, it is a tangible reminder of the noisy disruption we are called to make through the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Peer Support Specialist Training
LSSSC is engaged in a very important project – the training and support of individuals who wish to become Peer Support Specialists (PSS). This project is being funded by a grant from the California Department of Health Care Access and Information (HCAi) administrating the Workforce Education and Training (WET) Grant Program, a component of the State’s MHSA.
