Community Development

The West Angeles Community Development Corporation was founded in early 1994 as an outreach program of West Angeles Church of God in Christ, then a 15,000-member congregation in the Crenshaw District of Los Angeles. Dr. Lula Balton and Bishop Charles E. Blake, together with Trustees of West Angeles Church, founded the CDC to expand the compassionate outreach and neighborhood development ministries of the church in the face of mounting problems of poverty and injustice in the surrounding community.

Lack of jobs, business investment and affordable, decent housing, struggling schools, endemic homelessness, and gang activity were all signs that new, long-term improvements were needed. At the same time, new business and community-building activities had also begun and were growing. These signs were new life and hope on which to build.

CDC INITIATIVES

In January 1994, the West Angeles CDC was incorporated as a nonprofit organization to bring together people and resources to help develop the community. The CDC leads initiatives in many areas of community development, services, and support, including:

  • Financial Literacy
  • Home Ownership
  • Entrepreneurship
  • Re-entry for the formerly incarcerated
  • Low-income housing

The mission of the West Angeles Community Development Corporation is to increase social and economic justice, demonstrate compassion and alleviate poverty as tangible expressions of the Kingdom of God through the vehicle of community development.

Education & Enrichment Ministry


Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it – Proverbs 22:6

The  West Angeles Education and Enrichment Ministry (EEM) provides various educational programs for our youth, adults, and surrounding communities. EEM empowers students by providing a raised standard of excellence and access to resources. These opportunities are equally spread throughout the entire congregation and their families.

Directed by Deacon John Wilson, the EEM Program is provided in accordance with the COGIC Urban Initiatives,  and the directives of our Pastor and Presiding Bishop, Charles E. Blake, Sr.

Our ministry accomplishes our mission through after-school studies, SAT prep courses, college admission and financial aid information, youth development rites of passage programs, and summer enrichment programs.

OUR PROGRAMS

After-school Enrichment

West Angeles’ After-school Enrichment Program offers focused study in all levels of Math, Science, History, and English, for grades 6-12. We teach concepts in small groups with enhanced one-on-one help as needed.

Students today are exposed to algebra concepts and formulas much earlier. Unfortunately, a large portion of students is failing their math classes due to unpreparedness.  Parents can bridge the gap in learning by becoming involved with their children in our math, science, and history enrichment classes.

Limited Enrollment! To enroll your child in our program, please download the registration package below and bring it to our office between the hours of 1:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Monday thru Friday.

Also, if you are interested in a high-quality and affordable one-on-one tutor in all levels of math from Pre-Algebra to Calculus, please call our Program’s Math Contractor, Cherylnn Pope, CYP Tutorial Services, at 323/733-8300.

SAT Program

EEM offers a low-cost SAT Prep Course as part of the Princeton Review TM / West Angeles Church enrichment partnership.  This prep course includes the course material, over 20 classroom hours, and two practice tests (evaluated by Princeton Review, America’s #1 Test Prep Provider).  For many students, this course will raise SAT scores significantly, making all the difference in college admissions.

For registration information, please CLICK HERE.

West Angeles College Readiness Program

The West Angeles College Readiness Program prepares parents and students for the college admissions process. In our weekend sessions, families get a chance to sit and speak with college admissions counselors. Information the counselors provide for students and their families include:

  • how to navigate the financial aid office
  • how find scholarships
  • how to complete college

Meeting application deadlines, writing essays, and visiting campuses can make the admissions process overwhelming, but the path to your child’s success doesn’t have to be. Choosing the right school is crucial to your child’s success. The family should be prepared for all the changes that come with this transition – both financially and academically.

Do you have a plan for your child after high school?  The West Angeles College Readiness Program helps you to be prepared.  CLICK HERE for more information.

Scholarship Giving

Our scholarship program, the West Angeles Sponsorship Fund Organization (WASFO), enables the congregation and the community to provide financial support to our West Angeles scholars as they make their way through college.

Each year, West Angeles has an annual sponsorship fund drive in which the congregation is asked to participate, but giving is welcome any time of the year!

To give to the West Angeles Sponsorship Fund Organization, Please CLICK HERE.

Urban Initiatives

The COGIC Urban Initiatives

The COGIC Urban Initiatives target family and economic development, at-risk youth, financial literacy and community revitalization.

Young men of West Angeles COGIC, including Minister Donnie Briggs.

Dear Beloved,

God blessed us as a people with infinitely greater opportunities than any other black people on the face of the earth. But we are blessed to reach out to those of us who are less fortunate, and to lift them and help them. None of us  can remain satisfied in a community which is blessed and prosperous until we reach out and bless everyone in that community.

I pray that, in this season, every one of us stands upon our watch, and goes to God and pray:

“God, I just don’t want to stand by; I want to make a positive impact on earth. Please make me a positive influence on life on earth; make me a positive influence on my children, on my family, on my community. God, please show me what you would have me to do.  Please show me the direction you want me to go.”

As Presiding Bishop of the Church of God in Christ, I’ve asked every one of our 12,000 churches across the globe to incorporate into their operations five areas of emphasis. We call this the Church of God In Christ Urban Initiatives.

The five areas are:
1. Education – Education and work skills are key to family stability and community growth. This includes mentoring, tutoring, and Christian education.
2. Economic Development –  A church can offer services such as job training, employment counseling and assistance, and entrepreneurship programs.
3. Crime Prevention – Develop alternative programs to proactively keep young people out of a life of crime, and to create collaborative relationships with law enforcement.
4. Family – Create programs to strengthen the family, with a special emphasis on the role of fathers.
5. Financial Literacy – Include programs for both young people and adults which highlight the importance of saving, owning real estate, and wealth-building.

Some of the best and brightest leaders in our denomination have been assigned to spearhead the success of these programs across the nation. If every church has these five initiatives at work, there will be 60,000 programs in inner city America impacting our nation, impacting our cities, and impacting our communities across our nation. West Angeles Church of God In Christ has all five of these areas well covered, and we must expand even more.

We need your gifts, your skills, and your involvement, and we look forward to working with you. You, too, are Blessed to be a Blessing.

Bishop Charles E. Blake, Sr.

Church of God in Christ, Inc.

Counseling

“Ministry, when ministered in love, brings Jesus into the ‘now’ of people’s lives. If we trust Him, there’s no limit to what we can do”  –Presiding Bishop Charles Edward Blake

The West Angeles Counseling Center offers Bible-based services, programs, and classes that provide spiritual support to you and your family both in times of abundance and in times of trial. Through the gospel of Jesus Christ, our Christian counseling combines modern methods of counseling with scriptural principles, using biblical truths as the reference point for integration.

Established in 1988 as a ministry of West Angeles Church of God In Christ,  the West Angeles Counseling Center, under the visionary leadership of Presiding Bishop Charles E. Blake Sr. and Dr. Paula Litt, addresses and supports the emotional well-being of individuals, couples, and families. We provide the tools to improve the mental health of both individuals and families.

  • Deal with life’s trials – Our programs include Christ-centered counseling and support for dealing with issues such as substance abuse, mental illness, and more; for individuals, families, and groups.
  • Get Connected – Good interpersonal relationships promote good mental health. Develop the tools to build healthy friendships, good working relationships, and a healthy work-life balance.
  • Equip your ministry – The West Angeles Counseling Center is a Certified Academic Institution for the National Christian Counselors Association. We offer ministerial testing and evaluation programs for those who are called to ministry, and we can also help your church gather the resources to better serve your community.

Baptisms

mason, Community Services, Ministries & Auxiliaries

Baptisms

Water baptism is a joyous occasion which is central to our rich Christian traditions.  The immersion into the waters symbolizes Jesus’ death; the emergence symbolizes His  resurrection and a new life in Christ.

Water baptism by immersion is an outward expression of an internal testimony; an indication of personal faith in action and a time of spiritual cleansing.

West Angeles Baptisms for Children

At West Angeles COGIC, we believe that every born-again believer in Jesus Christ should be water baptized.  For children, it is our belief and practice to baptize them when they can best understand the ordinance of, and the reason for, baptism (infants up to three years of age are dedicated unto the Lord; please click here for Baby Dedications).  

For children ages 4-10 years of age, we recommend that they be interviewed by our Children’s Ministry Director.  The Children’s Ministry will advise the church when a child is ready for baptism. To contact this ministry, you may call 323-733-8300 extension 2624.

ADULT & YOUTH BAPTISM GUIDELINES

Baptisms for youth and adults are performed monthly on the 2nd and 4th Sunday nights (excluding special holidays) at the North Campus Sanctuary during our 7:00 p.m. worship service.  Baptism candidates are asked to report to the back area of the Sanctuary at 6:00 p.m.  Late arrivals will be rescheduled.

Apparel Guidelines

Women:

  • Please wear light-colored clothing, including undergarments and socks.
  • Please bring 2 large towels, a shower cap, and a plastic bag for wet clothing.
  • We thank you in advance for not wearing pants or shorts, and no jewelry, please.

Men:

  • Wear light-colored pants, a short-sleeved shirt; include undergarments and socks
  • Bring 2 large towels, a shower cap, and a plastic bag for wet clothing.
  • Thank you for not wearing short pants, and no jewelry, please.

*Please be advised that clothing worn must be capable of enduring complete water immersion.

Upon reporting to the designated area, a Deaconess will greet you and assist you in preparing for your baptism.  Congratulations on following Christ’s commandment to be baptized in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!
