“It was an amazing experience for us,” said lead pastor David Chang Dae Che.

Che, who has been pastor of the 700-member congregation since October 2024, said kids and adults intentionally wore t-shirts inviting people to ask them how Jesus changed their lives. “We had so many members from the community come up to us to thank us for sharing the name of Jesus,” he said. “We value Jesus’s Great Commission of going out and making disciples. We want to be a presence in our community.”
