Our Vision
MBCLA exists to glorify God through the fullness of our worship overflowing to fellowship, equipping, service, local evangelism, and global missions, thereby fulfilling the Great Commission.
Our History
Mandarin Baptist Church of Los Angeles was founded in 1963 under the leadership of Dr. Y.K. Chang, THD.
Dr. Chang went to be with the Lord in 1975, and in 1976, Senior Pastor, Rev. Peter Chung was called to lead MBCLA.
