Thanks to everyone who came out and took a chance on the first ever Sunday Assembly Los Angeles: our guest MCs from across the pond Sanderson Jones and Pippa Evans, Guest Speaker Heina Dadabhoy, Comedian Steve Hill, Musical Guest Gary Stockdale, and--most important--the hundreds of new assemblers who came out to learn, celebrate and play with us.

Here are some of my favorite Sunday Assembly Los Angeles moments in pictures.

 With help from volunteers, new assemblers get acquainted before we get started.

The kids teach us a little something about breaking the ice.

Gary works the crowd with the Beatles and some lighthearted not-gospel music.

These warm-hearted comedians continually quip, celebrate and inspire.

We had a lot of help from our friends.

Can't wait to do it again on December 8th!
