With our Resurrection Offering, we are believing to cover the cost of our Children Ministry for one year.

God is sending many kids to Chapel of Change.

Meet precious little sisters Athena, age 6 & Luna, age 4.

They came to CoC at the start of the pandemic.
They come from a single parent home.
They love to flag dance unto the Lord at the altar.
They bring to church so much love and energy.

We're helping to build a spiritual foundation in their precious hearts. This foundation will sustain them through life.
We see Kingdom leaders in them.
We see another Pastor Laura or Pastor Sandy or Pastor Irene in them.

And this is just one of many stories of God using Chapel of Change to teach kids about Jesus and His Kingdom.

Terranea Resort to pay $3.3 million for failing to rehire laid-off workers

State regulators have fined the upscale Terranea Resort nearly $3.3 million for failing to offer jobs to 53 workers who were laid off during the pandemic downturn once business picked up again in 2021.

The California Labor Commissioner’s Office issued the citation Wednesday, March 2, saying the Rancho Palos Verdes business violated Senate Bill 93, the state’s “right to recall” law.

Signed into law last year, the bill requires hotels, event centers and other hospitality businesses to offer employees who were laid off during the pandemic the opportunity to return to positions for which they are qualified in order of seniority. To be eligible, an employee must have worked for their employer for six months or more in the 12 months preceding Jan. 1, 2020.

Get ready to sort your food from your trash in Carson and Torrance next month

Carson and Torrance residents must soon toss food scraps into their green organic refuse containers instead of the black ones reserved for regular trash — just one of the changes taking effect in California because of updates to a state Senate bill aimed at reducing waste and curbing the state’s green house gas emissions.

The city councils for Carson and Torrance approved that change, as well as a food recovery program, this week, as mandated by recent updates to Senate Bill 1383. That bill, originally signed into law in 2016, now requires all local jurisdictions to implement mandatory organic waste recycling programs.

The changes in Carson will begin next month, although Torrance residents won’t be required to change until Jan. 1, 2023.

CDC to ease federal masking guidelines Friday

The Biden administration will significantly loosen federal mask-wearing guidelines to protect against COVID-19 transmission on Friday, according to two people familiar with the matter, meaning most Americans will no longer be advised to wear masks in indoor public settings.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Friday will announce a change to the metrics it uses to determine whether to recommend face coverings, shifting from looking at COVID-19 case counts to a more holistic view of risk from the coronavirus to a community. Under current guidelines, masks are recommended for people residing in communities of substantial or high transmission — roughly 95% of U.S. counties, according to the latest data.

The big news was the runway return of two of fashion's first-ever Black supermodels: Beverly Johnson, famously the first Black model to cover U.S. Vogue, and Veronica Webb, the first to ever sign a major cosmetics contract. It was an excellent Black History Month moment, from a Black designer who famously dressed our first Black Vice President.

California paid COVID sick leave is back; here's what to know

Many California workers will be eligible for COVID-19 supplemental sick leave under a bill signed Wednesday by Gov. Gavin Newsom that extends the paid time off through the beginning of this fall.

“Businesses cannot thrive in a world that’s failing, and that’s why sick leave is foundational. Keeping people healthy, keeping patrons safe is so important,” the governor said at the signing ceremony for the legislation, which took place in the morning at a Bay Area restaurant.

Newsom’s signature on the new law comes after the state Legislature approved the measure earlier in the week.
