    My wife and I have been coming to Ambassador Church in Brea for about 6 months now and we love it. We've attended other churches in the area and always felt like we were missing something. That something was community. At ambassador, we feel like the people there are family. It's a small congregation of about 300 people, and that's what makes this sense of family and community possible. The pastors all made us feel welcome from day one. Since it's a small congregation, it's easy to spot new people, so, the church staff welcomed us from day one with open arms and smiling faces. Another thing that I like about ambassador is that there aren't any smoke machines, strobe lights, or wannabe rock stars. The worship is quality, low-key contemporary and traditional and that's just the way we like it. Demographics: This is Orange County, so the congregation is mostly white and Asian. There is a large children's ministry and young families seem to make up a large part of this church. The parents drop off their kids and then slowly trickle in during the services. Oh yeah, sit in the middle seats, not near the aisles, because if you don't, there is a 99% chance you'll be asked to move in, toward the middle, during the service, by the church leaders. They do this to make room for everyone, so that no space is wasted.

    I have been a part of Ambassador for over 7 years and love the community and worship service. My family loves this church and my kids love the children's ministry program. The church has a vision to be multiethnic, missional, and multiply new churches. While the majority of the congregation is Asian, there are several caucasian and other ethnicities. On Sunday mornings, they have free donuts and Peet's coffee. Services are at 9:00 and 10:30 AM. They have about 50 adults and 20 kids in first service and 125 adults and 100 kids in second service. They meet in the Curtis Theater which is a cool venue to have church. If you are looking for a church in or around Brea, come check out Ambassador.

    Beautiful community that loves and worship Jesus Christ together and identifies with Him together. My wife and I have been coming for nearly a year and half and we love it here.

    Ask the Community - Ambassador Church

    What is the difference between the Anaheim and brea campus besides time of service?

    Good morning Caroline. Right now the difference is location and worship set. Each campus has a separate worship leader with their own style. The sermons are the same currently since whoever teaches goes to both campuses. In the future, each campus…

After running into our former Chicago youth leader at Disneyland, he suggested that we give Eastside a shot. Eastside's values are to Pursue God, Build Community, and Unleash Compassion and you'll struggle to find a more genuine and compassionate group of Christians in any area of the country or world. They have a genuine heart for the broken hearted, the struggling, the addicted, and the unchurched/uncertain and anyone will find themselves at home here, even if you don't believe you are a Christian (in fact their unofficial motto is "this is for everyone"). There's a place for everyone to volunteer or serve here too, whether it's in Production, at the cafe, as a greeter or in the kids ministry, Kidside (which is always a highlight of my daughter's week!) I highly encourage you to give Eastside a shot if you want a church or are interested in learning more about Christianity! Interested in checking Eastside out? Please dm me. I'd be happy to sit with you in service and make introductions!

    PLEASE READ BEFORE ATTENDING…read more Please do your research before getting involved with this "church." My experience left me extremely concerned, and honestly, it felt more like a business than a church. One of the biggest things that bothered me was the way Jesus and Christianity were talked about during the service. There were comments and jokes that came across as sarcastic and disrespectful toward Jesus. In my opinion, the pastor was making a mockery of Jesus rather than honoring Him. That was extremely disturbing to witness in a place that claims to be teaching Christianity. The atmosphere was also very unusual. Before the message even started, everyone was instructed to repeat phrases from the screen, raise their hands in specific ways, and hold up their Bibles while following the instructions. The pastor even told the new visitors something along the lines of, "I know this might look weird, but this is our ritual before we get into the Word." I found that very strange and uncomfortable. There were also speakers throughout the property -- inside the building, outside, in the bathrooms, and even in the parking lot. With the constant audio, repeated phrases, hand motions, and instructions coming from the screens, the entire experience felt very trance-like and unsettling to me. Another major red flag was the amount of emphasis placed on money and donations. There was a presentation explaining multiple ways to donate, and the welcome materials seemed to focus heavily on tithing and giving financially. What stood out to me was how little I saw about actually teaching the Gospel compared to the emphasis on giving. The pamphlets even asked for credit card information, which I had never experienced at a church before.

The pastor is an amazing speaker, but the Bible was never opened and he didn't quote any scripture. He spoke well but I felt very uneasy during the service.

Si bien es cierto que no utiliza la biblia física (el libro) en sus prédicas, pero tiene en su cerebro los versículos memorizados y con citas bíblicas! El pastor se ha adelantado muchos años cuando ya no tendremos el libro físico y tendremos que recordar los versículos bíblicos para enseñar a otros del amor de Dios. Ya en algunos países se puede notar que no hay libertad de cargar la Biblia como muchos estamos acostumbrados o todavía no hay Biblias escritas en ciertos idiomas, entonces los misioneros les predican l Palabra usando la memorización de la Palabra! Creo en Jesucristo como mi Salvador y Señor por muchos años y todo el tiempo cargo mi Biblia a donde sea que voy (ya está muy gastada pero no quiero cambiarla por todos las notas y enseñanzas que Dios me ha dado y las tengo escritas en mi Biblia) pero Dios, a través de pastor Dante, me ha mostrado que tengo que estar lista en todo momento para presentar el Reino de Cristo a toda criatura! La mejor forma es seguir memorizando las enseñanzas bíblicas y utilizarlas en forma práctica cuando Dios te lo muestre! Gracias pastor Dante por desprenderse de tradiciones humanas y dejar que el Espiritu de Dios lo guíe en toda justicia y verdad!
