Harbor Light

The Harbor Light Church is cool enough to host the Bloodmobile for Blood Centers of the Pacific. I really appreciate that they provide the venue for this community to donate blood. Thank you Harbor Light.

I started attending Harbor Light in February of 2013. What I like most about this church is the warmth of the people. You will right away feel at ease. And and will be taken by their praise and worship. The church also has a wide variety of ministries and several small groups that will cater to your specific needs and talent.
They also have several outreach ministries (I joined one for now) and I can’t wait for the «end time» class to start.
This is a hugging church, so get ready to get a hug or two. If you are a family with kids, they have (on top of the Sunday School) children’s church/​worship. And nursery for the little ones.
The sermons are always timely, relevant and Jesus focused. Every Sunday evokes a feeling of a grand family reunion.
If you are looking for a church, I hope that you will try Harbor Light and experience a different kind of spiritual high.

I Remember when we first arrived to California from ⁹⁄₁₁ tragedy near our former home in NYC. we kept passing harbor light which was formerly assembly of God, but I kept avoiding it, we came from a city where we attended a smaller church associated with the assembly of God. We decided to visit a few churches and decided to stay at a medium, but not smaller or large church. As I eventually hooked up with monthly intercessor prayer groups, I began networking with other prayer members of other churches. And then, I began being invited to harbor light events. Then one year our life began to fall apart again with banks taking houses people owned or rented, having trouble with my older son who were here too, etc. then changes were also going on in our current church and, we never had been connected to many support fellowship at our church… We remember walking in before Christmas, feeling abandoned and alone, far from family, and went up for prayer as we fell to the Lords feet! crying? Wow! Seeing my whole family crying was the hardest. I was a bit surprised how Gods presence surrounded us and we just felt Gods love receiving our broken hearts and healing began! It’s been 5 or so years and I wondered why I delayed! My family gets full support all around and individually. God has been healing us slowly and blessing us. I like that it’s big enough to connect with people who understand you, and embrace you as you are. They have so many connection groups, youth, young adults, children, men, ladies, marriage, and more… I love that the pastor preaches directly from the word and helps break it down for and with you. I love that, like family, they do family events so that the whole church could fellowship as one. What attracted me as well, besides the prayer team every Sunday, was their way of visually expressing Gods word and love through drama, creative arts and dance. Because God is also a God of vision as well. Visual ministries… Something for all… We have found healing, restoration and revival here! What took us so long?! Don’t wait! Check us out. If your broken, lonely, or just want to be connected to grow in God, come on by! We are a spirit lead church who let’s God lead and we don’t force anyone to join. You can be a visitor for a while if you’d like. God is a loving God, I get that here.

We have been a part of this Church family for the past 6 years. We feel welcomed, accepted, and encouraged in all aspects of living in God’s presence, walking out sanctification, and serving the community. There is definitley something for everyone in this Church body.

This church is so down to earth and real. The people and Pastor Terry really care about you and show it as they live their lives and show God’s love through their words and actions.
The worship experience is AWESOME They have great kids programs and small groups for any topic you could ever want! The community outreach is outstanding!
If you are searching for a church come try Harbor Light… see if it feels like ‘home’ to you!

Multi-​cultural church that is welcoming to everyone and celebrates diversity.
Amazing music and worship. Prepare to join a real celebration and experience the presence of God. This church has a heart for creative arts and the creative artist, which makes it always an interesting experience.
Thought provoking, Biblical and entertaining teaching on Sunday mornings, whether it’s the senior pastor or another pastor on staff. Often there are amazing guestspeakers from around the world.
Great programs for kids, youth, seniors. Bible studies and newbie classes Sunday mornings and throughout the week. Kids day camps in the summer and over Easter break.
If you’re used to a small church, don’t let the size of this church fool you. You get the quality of programs found in a big church but with the approachability of a smaller church — I find it’s easy to get to know people and the pastors, who are always at the door to greet you. And if you happen to miss them, just introduce yourself. Harbor Light is full of people who want to make you feel at home. Stop by the coffee counter and ask questions while they get your coffee, you’ll be a part of things in no time.
This is also a church that serves the community in a million different ways through food distribution and various outreaches that anyone can get involved with. They don’t just talk about God. They love people. It’s amazing to see how relationship with God (not religion) looks on the teenagers of this church up through older adults who may have just come back from serving a community in Africa.
I love the services, the people, the worship, teaching. It’s a great place to spend a Sunday or become part of the community.
