Ministry in the time of COVID-19 – Dream Center Lake Elsinore

May 29, 2020

How does the Church respond during a crisis like COVID-19? Do we give in to the impulse to demand to get our way, or do we allow God to soften our hearts and show us what really is “essential” in following Jesus? This series of interviews focuses on the ways Southern California ministry leaders are seeing God move in their communities during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Dream Center in Lake Elsinore has always been a “Church Without Walls,” building relationships with people and sharing the love of Christ through service. When the realities of the COVID-19 pandemic became clear to Rev. Brett Masters and his team, they knew they couldn’t keep doing things the way they always had.

From feeding the hungry to being a caring voice on a helpline, the Dream Center continues to be an essential part of their Lake Elsinore community.
