Who we are
We are a close-knit group of families, neighbors, and friends who strive to discover God’s direction for our lives. We encourage searching minds and spirits as we celebrate together our faith in God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, through the guidance of the Holy Scriptures. Emphasizing individual choice and conviction, members follow the Word of God according to the dictates of their own consciences. Our church is called “Congregational”, reflecting our heritage in the New England Pilgrim experience in which local congregations retain control of their own decisions and direction. We are also a member church of the United Church of Christ denomination, which is dedicated to realizing God’s just and loving purpose in the world.

Parking
There is a church parking lot on the south side of the buildings. There is also ample and easy street parking on and off of Huntington Drive. The main door and parking lot is actually on Del Mar – NOT Huntington Drive, so our quiet neighborhood provides safe access to our campus. (Our original chapel door faced Huntington Drive.)
