Visiting a new church can be pretty awkward. Maybe you’re coming from another church that did things differently or you’ve never been part of a church. Now you’re surrounded by a bunch of people singing songs that you don’t know and praying prayers you’ve never heard. Then, to top it all off, they pass around a basket and ask for money. We get it! We know that visiting a church can be uncomfortable, and we want to make you feel at home. So, here are a few things to know:

• You are welcome here and we're so glad you came. Every one of us has a past and it doesn’t matter where you come from, what you’ve done, or who you’re involved with, you're always welcome.
• Do not feel obligated to give. For those who attend our church regularly, it is an honor to give, but we do not expect it of our guests.
• Relax and enjoy yourself. Hopefully the routines of our Sunday service will be pretty easy to understand, but don’t worry, there’s nothing here to “mess up.”
• Say "hello" to someone. Most likely a bunch of people have already said “hello” to you, but in case they haven’t, step out and introduce yourself. We’d love to get to know you.
• Finally, if you have any questions, please ask!

Our hope is that after getting to know us better, you would become a part of our church family.  We’d love to have you on the journey.

Happy Friday LACC!

Around 2010 Pastor John's wife, Debra, started to have a chronic cough, increased breathlessness with exercise and pneumonia that took about 4 months to recover from. By 2014 the symptoms and recurring pneumonia caused her to begin seeing pulmonologists in Reno. she was treated for asthma with various inhalers that were ineffective. In 2016 her doctors saw a lung mass which led to many tests and procedures without a definitive diagnosis. Eventually a Pulmonary Nurse reviewed her information and gave her the diagnosis of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). She told us, “You are just going to get worse and there is no treatment or cure ...that was quite a blow, to say the least. She then did a self-referral to the University of California in Davis’ (UCD) Interstitial Lung Disease department and....
