LBMC has fulfilled that dream. If you are interested in the practice of meditation and getting some of the best instruction in the Dharma, LBCM is the place to connect with.I am so grateful for my teachers at LBMC.

“3/5/23 Urban farming in the middle of Compton! Support local farmers/vendors every other Sunday 8am-1 pmI was fortunate enough to tag along with my bro, test driving the Car of the Future-Faraday Future FF91. It's a triple treat: hanging out with my brother, visiting on the farms, riding in the car of the future. Life is an endless realm of possibilities!!The farm started with the crew's huddle right before 8am-inspirational! Bro & I checked out the farm & see what's growing: broccoli, radish, kale. Collard green, glowers & herbs. Bought a couple of bouquets & some raisin rolls.It's always so positively awesome after coming by & embracing nature's harvest, meeting the crew. Kudos to Richard, Mario & Mando-such friendly people. Highly recommend this place, it's small but big on freshness & customer service!!”

The emergency food is right at the front easily ready to go and the gentleman out in the front was so helpful and kind. It’s beautiful to know there is places like this and hope with a helping hand out here. Thank you all and God bless you.”

“What can I say about PAWS/LA ? Well I did found a whole bunch of good people willing to take over my sick dog veterinarian's cost in a moment when I needed it the most in search to cure my companion dog. My dog didn't survived her sickness but I still have a cat and another dog to which PAWS/LA supply food once a month. Omar is very professional, good hearted, and the courteous person in charge. The one that always take care of me is Stephany, a bilingual young lady willing to go the extra mile to help, she's also very professional. Like I said, everybody there is out to help us seniors. Two thumbs up PAWS/LA !!!”

“If there is a place that exemplifies the essence of compassion, it's undoubtedly the Heart of Compassion food pantry. I can't stress enough how much of a lifeline this place has been, especially during challenging times. What truly sets Heart of Compassion apart is the genuine care that radiates from every volunteer. And speaking of that, I have to give a special shoutout to Nela, who patiently guided me through the process. The variety and quantity of food they give out at Heart of Compassion is impressive, but it's the people like Nela who make this place shine. It's not just about filling stomachs here. I'm grateful to have HoC in my community.”
