WATCH FULL SERMON Welcome to West Angeles We are so glad you are here. At West Angeles, we evangelize, edify, and equip believers to reach the world for Jesus Christ. Meet our Leaders Pastor Charles E. Blake II and Lady DeAndra Blake West Angeles is led by our current Pastor is Pastor Charles E. Blake II. ​ Pastor Blake was born in San Diego, California in 1969, and is the eldest son of Bishop and Mrs. Charles E. Blake.   After growing up at West Angeles COGIC, he departed to pursue higher education at the esteemed Oral Roberts University, from which he received  a Bachelor of Science Degree in Marketing. From there, Charles went to  Atlanta, Georgia to study for the Master of Divinity degree at the  Interdenominational Theological Center which includes the Charles  Harrison Mason Seminary. It was there, through his studies in Ethics and  Society, that his passion for ministry in Community Outreach and Activism was fanned into flame.    Upon returning home, Pastor Charles stepped into the role of Community Relations Director at West Angeles—working very closely with various  community organizations and political entities, examining ways in which we  can all work together to strengthen and uplift each other and the  community. After serving for many years alongside his father, Bishop  Charles E. Blake, Sr., as both Assistant Pastor and Co-Pastor, he was  humbled to step into the role of Senior Pastor in 2022. He looks forward to bringing his experiences and passion of community relations into this role.   Pastor Charles is married to DeAndra Blake and is the proud father of two sons Charles III and Julian.  He has an intense love for the Lord and His  people, and is excited to empower West Angeles to be a beacon of the Lord’s love. Bishop Emeritus Charles E. Blake Sr. and Lady Mae L. Blake Presiding Bishop Emeritus Charles E. Blake, Sr. is commonly referred to as a “visionary." Under his 53 years of leadership, West Angeles matriculated from a 50-member church on West Adams Boulevard to an internationally known church of 25,000 members with multiple properties on Crenshaw Boulevard.   He has been a champion of the Crenshaw Corridor—instrumental in uplifting the tenor of the area through the development of multiple properties and programs to uplift members of the community. During his tenure, he developed and played an integral  role in the West Angeles Community Development Corporation, which  seeks to promote social change through economic empowerment, social justice, and community transformation. He also demonstrated his passion for the people of Africa, through Save Africa’s Children, which helped over 200,000 children who orphaned by HIV/AIDS.   Even with all of this, he still was able to successfully serve as Presiding Bishop of the International Church of God in Christ denomination from 2007-2021. Looking back on all that he had done, he made the decision in 2022 to rest and enjoy the fruit of his years of Godly service. ​ Although he has retired from his Pastoral role, he is still involved in the life of the Church and enjoys encouraging the employees and members of his beloved West Angeles. To quote his trademark phrase, “I see you in the future, and you look much better than you look right now."
