Leader Bio:
The local minister, W. Bruce Evans began working with the Winnetka congregation in 2006. Previously, he had been working with Airport Church of Christ in Columbia, South Carolina. He has preached for congregations of the Lord's people in Yakima, Washington; North Hills, California; Las Vegas, Nevada as well as other congregations in California,Oregon and New Mexico. He began preaching in 1978. Over the years he has been called upon to speak at lectureships and conduct Gospel Meetings for various congregations across the nation. He has written articles for several periodicals, and fields requests constantly to write on specific issues of concern.

Brother Evans holds a degree in Christian Counseling Psychology and has in the past operated his own counseling practice while living in the state of Washington. At times, over the years he has coupled his work as a minister with working as a college instructor. He has volunteered his time and energy in providing pro bono counseling to those in need. While living in South Carolina he provided counseling for those people from New Oreleans who had been relocated there as a result of Hurricane Katrina. In like fashion he worked with Lexington Medical Center. In his work as a minister he is often called upon to give guidance and direction, which he is more than happy to provide. As a nouthetic counselor, he places a premium on individuals working to align their lives with the revealed Word of God.

Linda Evans is Bruce's wife, and a valuable asset to all that he does. They have been married for over 35 years. Linda is an accomplished artist, and a skilled teacher. She is the epitome of just what a christian woman should be. Sister Evans has the unique ability to listen carefully to all who come to her, and respond with the utmost of understanding., care and concern. Together they embrace the work set before them gladly, doing what they can to be of service to any and all who make such a request. Always remembering that they are but servants to the God of Heaven.   Edit

Winnetka Avenue Church of Christ History

A Brief History Of The Congregation

In the year of 1949 a group of christians who lived in the west San Fernando Valley had a burning desire to begin a congregation in that general area. They began working toward the goal, and in 1950 they were able to organize a congregation in accordance with the teaching of the New Testament and was in compliance within the statutes of both the state of California and the United States. At first, rented facilities were used until a location was decided upon for a building and funds were saved for that purpose. The building was constructed using volunteer labor from members of the congregation under the direction of a local contractor. The building was ready for occupancy in 1954 and has served the congregation since that time.

The church building underwent a remodeling in 1975, which incorporates a Spanish influence. Because of the increase in people in the San Fernando Valley, the postal department divided the area and this caused the church building to be located in the new city created by the division, Winnetka. The congregation was formerly known as the Winnetka Ave. church of Christ in Canoga Park, California .

Through the years the congregation has had more than 20 ministers working with it. The current minister is W. Bruce Evans and he has been here since 2006. He moved here from South Carolina after having preached in the general area in the late 1980's until 1997. Some of the other ministers include Kenny Marrs, Dennis Kilgo, Osby Weaver, Leon Goff, Ford Carpenter and Roy Cogdill to name a few.

The congregation has a long history of upholding Bible truth and it is our desire to continue doing so. As well the congregation is at peace and enjoying growth, to which we gratefully thank the God of Heaven. The job of any congregation is to plant and water the seed and God will provide the increase as seen explained by the apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 3:5-7
