Lincoln Heights

In the City for City Transformation

Lincoln Heights, located in Northeast Los Angeles, is one of the oldest and most distinct Latino neighborhoods in Los Angeles, fraught with gang violence, high crime rate, low-income and broken families, and a lack of accessible resources. The Lincoln Heights church plant began in 2004, seeking God in the building of His Kingdom in the Lincoln Heights inner city urban community. We desire our ministry to be holistic in nature – seeking personal, family, and community transformation, all the while, investing in the development of indigenous leadership. We currently lead three organic churches, as well as a vibrant high school youth ministry. Our church is comprised of teenagers, single adults, married couples, and families. Furthermore, we launched IntheCity,Inc. in 2008, a non-profit arm to Epicentre Community Church. As we believe that the best solutions to the challenges facing an urban community are found in the people that live there, IntheCity, Inc. strives to identify, mobilize, and develop local leaders to transform their community through formal training and specific, focused projects.
