Stations of the Cross & Lenten Soup Supper

Tuesday, April 1 at 7:00 pm in St. Matthew’s Church 672 Temple Ave, Long Beach

Join Comunidad for a prayerful evening as we walk with Christ through the Stations of the Cross, reflecting on His Passion through a contemporary lens that speaks to the lived experiences of the LGBTQIA+ community. Each station will connect Christ’s suffering to the challenges, resilience, and hope of those seeking faith, justice, and belonging. Following the service, we will gather for a simple Lenten Soup Supper, sharing in faith and fellowship as we journey together in love and solidarity. All are welcome—bring a friend as we deepen our faith and prepare our hearts for Easter.

Cinco de Mayo

Tuesday, May 6 at 7:00 pm in St. Matthew’s Church 672 Temple Ave, Long Beach

As we do each May, we’ll be meeting for food, games, music and fellowship. If you’re able, please bring a acompañamiento or guarnición (side dish) or postre (dessert) to share with fellow partygoers (enough to serve, say, 4 or 6 people). If not, don’t keep that from holding you back from attending. Our own Ray Ramirez will once again be our Master of Ceremony.
