What visitors say
This is a large but oh so welcoming church. We drive over and hour to go. The grounds are so lovely also. Facilities are very clean. Wonderful place to worship. Great church to be at. Pastor Andi teaches biblical truths. One of the reasons I am coming to this church is because the church is not obsessed with escology which other church's gets concentrated supporting the state of Israel not the biblical Israel which is the church. I like the volunteers there which makes it more welcoming. Coffee and tea before and after church shows that the church is welcoming people. The activities for the kids after the service are great way to make it fun for the kids plus also their classes are great . The game rooms are good after the kid's classes are over. I will keep coming to this church until I see that this church will become non biblical which I don't think this is the case. Ten years of wandering into churches across the country, from tiny wooden chapels to mega-congregations, and nothing’s hit me like Saddleback Church in Lake Forest. Seriously, stepping onto this campus feels like walking into hope itself-fifty acres of palm trees, open spaces, and this warm glow that just wraps around you. The main worship center’s massive but not intimidating; it’s like a big family gathering spot where everyone fits, voices blending in worship that lifts your soul right off the ground. And the vibe? Pure joy. No stuffiness, no judgment-just real people chasing real faith. My kid’s been going to their little school programs here, and honestly, it’s magic for him. He bounces out every week happier, talking about Jesus in a way that’s excited, not forced-like he’s found his own adventure. The middle and high school spots are killer too, full of energy without the chaos. Location-wise, it’s perfection: tucked in Lake Forest but feels like a retreat, easy to get to off the 5, with that California sunshine streaming in. If you’re looking for a place where faith feels alive, where kids thrive, and your heart gets fuller every Sunday-get here. Saddleback’s changed everything for us. Can’t wait to see you there. Since day 1 we felt at home. The amazing staff with a big smile welcomed our family, the delicious cold Coffee, the donuts, the beautiful welcome gift (saddleback mug) and the love of Christ that we have felt and seen first hand by our Saddleback family is beyond belief. Saddleback has done so much for our family. We love the campus, so beautiful, clean, family/pet friendly and Pastor Andy is always on point. We love it here and definitely recommend Saddleback church to everyone. Love this church! So welcoming and their messages always move me. The music is amazing and you really feel good being here. You leave feeling different, moved by the messages and feeling welcomed. I love the diversity of the church and how they offer so many opportunities to get involved and be apart of the church.
