Being the Church, Long Beach is a collaborative movement of the United Methodist Churches in Long Beach, California.
Starting THIS Sunday: Feb 26th!
Everybody Sing!
Do you want to sing with the band but don’t have time for a
weekly rehearsal? I get it. We are all busy.
Do you have five minutes? If you do, you can join us!
On Sunday mornings, arrive and be ready by 10:15am for a quick run through of our opening song.
Our opening song is usually an up-tempo number meant to get people excited and ready to engage with the service while we
shout out a praise to the Lord.
Beginning this Sunday Feb 26th, I would love to make this opportunity available to you. I hope to see you there!!
