About Us
Light & Life is a multi-ethnic community of imperfect people learning to love Jesus, each other, and our world.

We love Jesus by celebrating Him, studying His Word, seeking Him in prayer, and serving others in our world.

Our doors are open to everyone. We love people just like they are and we love them enough to help them become who God designed them to be. We work hard to live up to our motto – “The People-Loving Place”.

Authentic, alive, vibrant, caring, spiritual, missional, externally focused, trust-worthy and creative are words that people use to describe us.

Reach, Teach, Mend, Send – this is our mission at Light & Life.

 How did you come to LLCF?
I saw Larry at a Pastor’s gathering in the fall of 2006 and he said “Why don’t you come to Long Beach?”  I said sure and here we are!  Okay there is a little more to the journey, but it is a great God thing.

What Active Imageis your role at LLCF?  Executive Assistant to Dr. Larry Walkemeyer & Director of Fusion Extreme, LLCF's young adult ministry.

What is the best part about your role?                                                            
Leading our young adult ministry's summer retreat!  I never thought I would enjoy being without a cell phone, or other technology for 5 days in the mountains (I'm a city girl).  However, seeing the beauty of God's creation and working with our young adults at Kidder Kreek has been such a blessing!  And the White Water Rafting was fun too!
