A vibrant and inclusive community of faith serving the beach cities and westside of Los Angeles

Sisters of Bede
The Sisters of Bede is the women's+ evening fellowship of the church, open to all who identify as women+ of the parish. The monthly potluck dinner meetings are held in Luther Hall at 7:00 p.m. on the first Monday of most months. The meetings are loosely structured. We pray together, enjoy a potluck meal, and have spiritual discussions. All women of the parish are invited to come join us for great food, fun, and fellowship!
