Want to know more about LCF Grad?
Who are we?
We are a group of graduate students that meets regularly on the UCLA campus to learn about God and to share life in Christ. Some of us are just starting to look into the claims of Christianity and some of us have known Christ for a long time. But all of us believe that there’s more to life than finishing that thesis or dissertation, making it in the world, or just getting through the week. What we’re about is simple: life in Christ and life together. Life Christian Fellowship is sponsored by Life Baptist Church, a local church here in West LA. In addition to our group at UCLA, there are also LCF groups at USC and at Caltech.
When do we meet?
Fall Quarter 2011-2012:
Fridays @ 8 pm Kerckhoff 133
We also meet at 7pm for dinner before the Bible study at the Ackerman food court near Panda Express. Food is provided.
What are Bible studies like?
We usually meet for about an hour or so to study the Bible together. You can come and ask questions and discuss or, if you’d like, just listen. Afterwards we usually go out and do stuff together, like bowling, ice skating, watching movies, and of course, going out to eat. Join us if you have time!
What else do we do?
Some of us get together throughout the week for one-on-one discipleship and small groups, to pray, study together, or just hang out. From time to time we also have activities with the other LCF groups at Caltech and USC. Some of our past activities have included sports, picnics, hiking trips, and ski trips, as well as visits to local attractions like the Getty Museum and the Hollywood Bowl. During the summer, there are also opportunities to join one- to two-week mission trips. In previous years, we’ve visited and held events in Mexico, China, Japan, Korea, and Uzbekistan, and it’s been an eye-opening experience every time.
Where do you guys go to church?
Many of us attend Life Baptist Church, which is the church supporting LCF Grad. Church services are Sundays at 4pm. The church is located near the corner of Santa Monica Blvd and Barrington Ave and is only a 10 min drive from the UCLA campus. We regularly provide rides every Sunday, so just shoot us an e-mail if you’d like a ride (e-mail listed below). After the worship service, the whole church has dinner together, and then sports for those who are interested. The environment is warm and inviting – the age ranges from working people in their 50s to college students to our very young kids. It really is a wonderful group of people who are seeking to love God and love one another. Come visit us!
