GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENTS (NOT TIME-SENSITIVE)
SUBSCRIBE TO THE WHCC’S YOUTUBE CHANNEL
If you would like to find a full listing of all the video experiences WHCC provides on the Internet, we would encourage you to subscribe to the church’s YouTube channel. You can subscribe here: WHCC YOUTUBE CHANNEL. When you subscribe, don’t forget to click on the bell to the right of the “Subscribe” button. This will notify you each time a new music video, sermon, or special event is posted.
BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR EMAIL SCAMS
Several folks from church received an email allegedly from WHCC members asking them to send him gift cards. The email address used in the scam was just a letter or two off from the official email account. Requests such as these are scams and sadly happen all too frequently.
If you ever get a similar request via email for financial assistance from any church participant, DO NOT send any money until you have verified the request is legitimate by either speaking with the person directly on the telephone or contacting the church office to see if the request is real. Be sure to check the email by hovering over the sender’s name We don’t want anyone to fall victim to such scams.
Don’t reply to spam messages! If you see an email from someone you don’t know or anything about the email looks sketchy, delete it. Responding to an email shows the scammer your address is active and increases the chances of getting similar scam emails.

EASY WAY TO INCREASE YOUR CONTRIBUTION TO WHCC WITHOUT COSTING YOU A PENNY!
Did you know that WHCC is one of the Community Rewards Partners with Ralph’s and Food4Less? What does that mean? It means if you register your Ralph’s card online, a percentage of your spending at the store can go to benefit WHCC. All you have to do is go to the store’s website (Ralph’s), create an online account and/or sign in, and then click on “Community Rewards”. Then select WHCC from the list of eligible charities. The church’s organization number is RW127. Once you have done that, Ralph’s will track your spending and send WHCC a check each quarter that covers the proceeds from all those from the church who’ve signed up for the program. Make sure you look carefully when you select the charitable organization, however. The church’s Nursery School is also a Community Rewards Partner. Our accounts are entirely separate. If you choose Woodland Hills Community Church Nursery School – and not Woodland Hills Community Church – the church will not receive any of the proceeds.
