Westchester United Methodist Church

About this church

Westchester United Methodist Church gathers at 8065 Emerson Avenue in Los Angeles for informal in-person worship Sunday at 10:00 a.m. The service is described as come-as-you-are, welcoming to children and even dogs, with traditional and contemporary elements and music that may involve organ, piano, a worship band, and both sacred and secular selections. An online Breakfast Church meets by Zoom Sunday at 8:00, using Scripture, questions, conversation, and whatever breakfast participants bring to their own virtual table.

Community care is unusually visible in the congregation's schedule. Free Dinner Church meets in the Fellowship Hall at 5:00 p.m. on first and third Wednesdays, alternating soup and home-style meals; the church requests an RSVP by the preceding Sunday. Westchester also partners with the LAX Food Pantry, which provides two days of food to qualifying neighbors, and supports suicide-prevention and mental-health work through Didi Hirsch services. A monthly Rhythm & Food gathering combines group drumming with a shared meal, while Wednesday morning prayer meets online. These offerings make Westchester a flexible community for someone seeking conventional Sunday worship, conversational online church, or a meal-centered midweek entry point.
