On Sunday September 16 the Huntington Park West Spanish Stake was dissolved. The wards were reassigned to the Stakes that pertained to their geographical boundaries. The Downey Stake was also dissolved and reformed as the Huntington Park Stake with President Larry Larsen and counselors President Chavez and President Osorio. Each Spanish ward will meet in conjunction with an English ward. They will have separate Sacrament, Priesthood, and Relief Society Meetings in both English and Spanish. All youth and Primary meetings will be held jointly, in English. The South Gate Ward was divided with South Gate First Branch in the Huntington Park Stake and the South Gate Second Ward in the Inglewood Stake. All other wards will currently remain the same.
The missionary areas are not affected but we have decided to reform some of the zones so that they will also match Stake boundaries.
Los Angeles Stake: Griffith, Westwood, and Coliseum Zones
Huntington Park Stake: Metro and Downey Zones
Santa Monica Stake: Marina Zone
Inglewood Stake: Central Zone
Torrance North Stake: South Bay Zone
Torrance Stake and Palos Verdes Stake: Penninsula Zone.
