Welcome to the Los Angeles District of the Southern California
Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church
The Leadership Team of the Los Angeles District
Rev. Norman D. & Mrs. Velvia Copeland

Greetings from the Presiding Elder

Bishop T. Larry Kirkland has chosen the theme for this year "A Prescription to Rebuild the Walls ,"
Nehemiah 2:17, "Then I said to them, You see the trouble we are in; Jerusalem lies in ruins,  and its  
gates have been burned with fire. Come, let us rebuild the wall of Jerusalem, and we will no longer
be in disgrace." Bishop Kirkland has laid out a seven step program for Growth and Development
They are: Evangelism, Mission, Health and Human Services,
Education, Church Planting, Youth development, Economic Development .


Building on what God has given us is truly working by faith, therefore Velvia and I would like to
welcome you to the Los Angeles District web page.  Our desire is to use this medium to enlarge the
Ministry of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in the Los Angeles District and to assist you in Building
on the gifts which God has given unto you.

By reviewing this site you'll be able to download or just review the activities of the Los Angeles
District throughout the year.  We will also post information concerning upcoming Fifth District
meetings. If there is a need for District forms you'll be able to access them on our forms page.

Individual churches may provide information concerning your local ministries by e-mailing them
one
month in advance
to this website and we will post them or you may provide a link to your local
church web page.

Remember, God is doing a new thing in You!
