What visitors say

If you would have told my younger self who gave up on the Catholic Church, all churches AND God that we’d become a member of a new church, I would have laughed and continue my self-destructive behaviors to prove that there is no God. Sounds dramatic right? But 100% true. Until something in my heart started to call out for something greater than myself. That call led me here to this church. There’s so many things that I didn’t like about religion, church and what was being fed to us. But, this place spoke to me. This IS a reconciling congregation and I love that. I love how the pastors are women from different ethnicities. I love how they unapologetically connect scripture to the world we live in today. I love how there’s traditional service with choir and organ music but if you’re uncomfortable with that, the church also has a contemplative way of worship. The organist and choir has my head bobbing to all the notes lol. I love that they integrate technology in a way that I’ve never experienced at another church including a podcast! I love that there’s many ministries and different ways to be of service. All to say, I love church, I love God and I love the spiritual journey I’m on. At the end of the day, it’s up to you to come and decided if this church is a good fit. To really experience and take it all in. Not what these reviews say, including my own, not what your family or friends say, but you and only you. Centrally located Church in Mission Valley. Off I-8, Texas St. Mid-day/Mid-Month events for seniors & singles. Bible study, and Wednesday Organ Concerts!!! 🎶🎹🎼 Very hostile and unwelcoming environment. If you have traditional beliefs they will make you feel like you are evil. They care more about promoting their leftist political beliefs, than bringing people to God. We were there for Grossmont High School Choir Spring Festival. It is a beautiful church and we are very grateful for being allowed to perform there. Forget about all of the should's of Christianity, Give yourself 2 or 3 minutes to just sit and be with God. No itinerary, No list of shoulds, Just be present like you're with a loving parent. All God ever wanted was to be with you Just the way you are.!!!
