It is a little weird to yelp review a church-but I wanted to express my appreciation to Reverend…read moreRegan Schutz, Mr. Robert Ketts, and Ms. Yvonne Rowe for kindly welcoming our family to their church. Mr. Ketts and Ms. Rowe are both part of a welcoming committee at this beautiful church-and their kind, hospitable, and genuine/earnest desire to welcome others to their church shined through. Reverend Schutz and Yvonne both met with us in person to provide certain accommodations for our autistic child-since crowds, loud noises, and other sensory-related triggers can overwhelm our little one who is on the spectrum. Our family is earnestly seeking a home church-a place to worship the Lord in Spirit and truth-and a place to connect with other believers in the house of God. It has been a journey since many churches with a robust children's ministry tend to focus on neurotypical children-and wasn't quite the right fit for our little one. We have yet to decide where we will anchor ourselves spiritually-which church we will attend regularly. However, Rev. Regan and Ms. Rowe kindly met with us and provided all types of flexible accommodations so that our little one on the spectrum could disengage and reconnect if and when the sensory triggers get to be too much. All 3 people that I have mentioned expressed their enthusiasm and made it clear that we are welcome at this community. Moreover, Mr. Ketts shared some stories of his and Ms. Rowe's family's commitment and sacrifice in military service-something I deeply respect and admire. Rev. Regan has been responsive, compassionate, and radiates the love of Christ to those around her. My husband graduated from an Episcopal seminary. I am a non-denominational Christian who doesn't identify strongly with a particular denomination or way of worship. What I will say though is that I appreciate this church's efforts to embrace us and include each person's portion-from the youngest to those young at heart-with compassion, authenticity, and love. Beyond the absolute physical beauty of this church and the serene church grounds-they also have a lovely Wednesday night prayer, an art class for children, a godly play class for kids, and they seem to actively try to to be a healing sanctuary and presence in the larger Coronado/local community. I just wanted to express my appreciation and share our experience of this church and its wonderful staff. Organized religion often gets a bad rap (perhaps, sometimes at its worse-deservedly so)-but there is something about the assembling of the body of Christ-a corporate expression of His love and the richer/deeper meanings of the gospel-that are most fully expressed in His body. May we all live out the love of Christ so authentically, humbly, and from a spirit of humility, love, and grace.

Although I had to wake up very early in the morning to get to the mass on time (7:30 AM Sunday mass), it was worth going to and starting the day with church and spending time there. The drive to Coronado was not not bad coming from San Diego, and there was plenty of parking in the residential streets nearby and even across the park (although be aware of the signs that says no parking). The new pastor of the church was there presiding mass and had a really great homily that connected to the people. Everyone was very welcoming. I also loved seeing the stations of the cross pictures all together one on each side of the walls, and the music was beautifully sung. Overall, Sacred Heart is definitely a place to visit for mass.

The church leaders, staff, and congregational members are welcoming, sincere and engaging. Pastor J.T., Lay Pastor Todd, Music Director, Justine, and Children and Family Ministry Director, Deanna, are gifted with biblical integrity in their teachings and work, and adding the elements of practical application as we walk our Christian journey in this world. There are also plenty of opportunities to serve within the congregation and throughout the community, both in Coronado and over-the-bridge, and in missions globally. Additional teaching offerings allow church attendees to deepen their faith across different dives into different relevant subject matter over many gathering offerings to partake as desired. Fun social fellowship events for families, children, women and men are also offered regularly. Pastor J.T. and his amazing wife, Sally, are truly gems to our community. Highly recommended if you're looking for a welcoming, approachable and inclusive congregation.

Their services are held on Sunday afternoons, from 4 -6:30 p.m. Primarily, a Filipino congregation, this church is Pentecostal and seeks foremost to reach the lost with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. According to their Facebook page. Victory Lighthouse is "The church that continues the Acts 2:38 doctrine. "The Voice of Triumph. " That Biblical passage states: "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." Therefore, Victory Lighthouse is big on baptisms and the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. Why I like them and gave them 4 YELP STARS is that they have a great outreach program. I met one of their parishioners as he was doing homeless ministry and passing out free food to the needy in the Midway District, This is a very good place to help out the less fortunate as there are many downtrodden here in the area. Though I am an evangelical myself, I have every bit of full respect for the Pentecostal brothers and sisters. As a young Catholic especially, I do not understand the Pentecostal rejection of the Trinity--the idea that there are three distinct persons within one God: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Also, the speaking in tongues is another thing I don't get. But the Bible does say in Matthew 7:16, "By their fruits you will recognize them." This small Church, founded in 1999, is doing good work in the community and are respected brethren out there helping the less fortunate.

We've never felt more welcomed or as part of a church community than we do here. Restoration Church is truly a Jesus-centered church for all people--no matter who you are or where you are on your journey, whether you're new to faith or have been in church your whole life. The church (as the mission statement says) genuinely empowers all people to love and follow Jesus. The pastors and leadership are not only passionate about their mission, but they also deeply care about the growth of the people. They are focused on building up the individuals within the church, not just growing the church. If you are looking for a different kind of church - one that encourages personal growth and transformation not through pressure or rules, but through the natural result of loving and following Jesus, Restoration Church is it! If you are searching for a new church or have even given up on church altogether, we encourage you to give Restoration a try. As yet another plus of Restoration Church, the worship team is AMAZING!!
