We stopped by the welcome booth, where a friendly couple gave us a brief overview of the church and answered our questions with a smile. They even gave us coupons for free coffee! After the service, we enjoyed a delicious coffee (worth over $5) at the on-site cafe right next to the church.

I feel that my life feels more gratifying. satisfying, more peaceful, more loving, grounding, forgiving, and really my eyes consistently focused on God because of the difference the San Diego Rock church has made in my life. The San Diego Rock church is great for spiritual growth as well as connecting with like-minded people, but it's how you decide to live your life once you leave church on a daily basis. So many people have transformed their lives for the better, not perfect but improved due to continued spiritual inspiration that the San Diego Rock church represents. No matter what church you attend, I hope it is a powerful, inspiring, and life changing journey for your life. May you be blessed!

Did you know they have a superior summer camp they run at Point Loma Nazarene University? I came across it on a walk and was so impressed with the way staff was handling the camp population and visitors. I spoke with some young men from all over San Diego and Las Vegas! They were having the "best time of their year" they said and love staying in the dorms and meeting so many other young people of faith. I saw cornhole games and ping pong tables by the library and other games scattered around campus. There were also many chaperones and information tables set up for check ins and safety. It happens every year and I highly recommend you consider sending your children to this summer camp! Go on their website to check dates and availability! Great Summer Camp!

If you're in San Diego driving along Interstate 5 by La Jolla, you have seen this beautiful white…read morelooking castle. It's the San Diego Temple of Latter-day Saints. It's been closed to the public for the last 33 years! We attended the open house on 6/19/2026. It's going on until 11 July. Tickets are sold out. If you didn't get to reserve a ticket, no need to worry because they don't check or scan. Everyone gets a chance to go in. Meaning, if you have a ticket, no need to arrive at your assign day or time. I found out the hard way because I was running late and stressed out. Wasn't until I got there that I figured everything out because no one tells you anything among the chaos. Do this: Park off site to be shuttled in. The lot on site is tiny. Nice tour buses with A/C, comfy seats, the buses had Finding Nemo playing on the tv. The minute you arrive on site and get off the bus, you can either detour off to take photos of the exterior. Or follow the white chain in single file line to the big white tent. The tent is where they seat you to be in the shade. As the rows exit the tent towards the temple, you get seated to wait your turn. It's about 30 minutes wait of just sitting there. I would suggest to bring a hat or umbrella in case you're one of the groups that get stuck outside waiting to be seated and you're out in the sun. Then your row is ushered to exit towards the temple. The first 1 minute stop talks about the religion and how sacred it is that no photos or filming allowed. Then as you approach the entrance, there are stations with volunteers to put shoe coverings on you. Next, you enter the temple with another 1 minute intro before you truly go on your tour. It's well thought out and organized with a volunteer at every room. Be prepared for lots of stairs and walking. Tour took 30 minutes. Young kids and babies allowed. We had some in our group and I have to say, it wasn't pleasant when they're all crying, screaming, and walking around. No strollers. If you need assistant or in a wheel chair, there's a separate area to check in and you get your own tour as you use the elevator. After the tour, we took photos of the exterior. So many volunteers available to answer questions and take photos for you. It's truly a blessing to be able to visit this temple while it's open to the public. I felt the energy. The architect is also gorgeous. They do not try to sell, preach or recruit you. No brochures were given out. It's purely informational about each room and what they believe in.

What a cool experience.

The tour led you to the baptismal area and different rooms for instruction and changing into religious garments and teachings, the celestial room and the sealing room with the illusion you can see the reflection that is endless. Truly remarkable architecture and detail and the white carpet and cleanliness of everything was so nice. I had a hard time with all the artificial plants and wished more of them were real but maybe after the tour they are. All of the ushers and folks greeting etc were so kind and nice. Grateful for this opportunity.

Immediately I felt welcomed and knew this was a church that provided sermons that were not misleading, even when I did not want to hear it, and kept my attention, which was very important to me. The fact that they provide complementary coffee and refreshments is just an example to the kindness that you see within this church. Although it is small and the parking may not be ideal at times, I understand that they are in the midst of finding a home to accommodate everyone and those new like myself. I always joke around with my mom on the phone and say I will cry if I ever have to move and leave this church because I finally found one that resonates with me. If you are wondering about attending, don't hesitate, the Lord is calling you here, and even if I had to move back... I would drive here just to attend. Stay blessed! -Gabby

In the last 3 years, we have developed strong relationships with friends, been fed spiritually in numerous growth groups, and become plugged in to serve the church in the worship, childcare, and production teams. We love this church so much, we love its people, we love its commitment to spiritual growth and outreach, and we love how it has equipped us to commit to putting Jesus at the center of our lives and our marriage. I highly recommend checking this church out if you're looking for fresh, fun, scripture-first messages. I am biased, but our worship team is next level. If you're on the fence about Jesus or your faith, take a moment and stop by the Grove.

God gave Pastor Rick and Kay Warren the dream to plant a church for people who didn't like church, and he led them to Southern California. Our first service was held on April 6, 1980. Over the next 43 years, we witnessed God perform miracle after miracle as we moved locations, raised money for permanent buildings, launched campuses in California and around the world, and baptized over 50,000 people. In September 2022, we welcomed Pastor Andy Wood as our new lead pastor. As we step into the future, we’re believing God will do more than we could ever ask for or imagine. Our best days are ahead, and we can’t wait to see all the ways God will change lives in years to come! Interested in visiting a campus for the first time? Get all the details you need beforehand!
