I went to church to pray and give thanks to God for the progress I've made in my personal goals and…read morethe recent success I've experienced. I had made an oath and felt genuinely called to go pray. When I arrived, Mass was already in progress, but I only intended to quietly join for a few minutes. As I walked in, an older woman at the front stopped me. I was wearing a hat, which I planned to remove once I sat down, but before I could do that, she told me I wasn't allowed to enter. I asked why, explaining that I just wanted to pray and be part of the service. She refused and told me I couldn't come in. Then, she went as far as to physically hit my hat and told me I was being disrespectful. I asked again if she was seriously denying me access to join the Mass and pray, and she said yes. She told me to go to the chapel instead if I wanted to pray. I've never experienced anything like this before especially in a place that's supposed to be open to anyone seeking God. It felt wrong to be turned away like that when all I wanted was to pray and express gratitude.

I would say that if you are new to town, and are looking for a place to hear a good sermon...go check it out. It's a smaller church so it's pretty intimate and you don't feel like you are lost in the crowd. Everyone is friendly and the worship music is awesome. The denomination is Free Methodist.

So traffic bottle necks as you exit, which is why I gave 4 stars instead of 5. The church itself was clean and most of the church-goers friendly, passing a few good morning smiles. Hymns were projected onto the front walls of the church for attendees to follow along, which is good if you're like me and forgot to grab a missalette on your way to the pew. There are 4 sections to the church with long pews and a cry room towards the rear right-hand side of the church. I especially enjoyed the tiled stations of the cross. Something you don't normally see in many churches. I would definitely attend mass here again on our next Disneyland trip.

His sermon spoke on how we must re-interpret the Bible on its statements on homosexuality and transgendered people. That the verses don't really mean what they state.

This is a church that has fallen victim to the blurring of the lines of morality due to social pressure. This church is not for me.

Through my time as a volunteer at Blessed Sacrament, St. Polycarp, but primarily St. Barbara, I've…read morebeen able to see a lot of brokenness, not only in the communities I serve but also in the people who I serve alongside. What has been a constant reminder for myself is the old church saying: "The Church isn't a museum for saints but a hospital for sinners." In a strange way, our imperfections are a clear indication that God is leading and not us. "I have come to call not the righteous but sinners to repentance." (Luke 5:32) With St. Barbara, being my main parish, I definitely resonate with some details shared with a particular review here. I understand, have seen, and even dealt with some difficulties myself. With that I'll say that I am happy that the parishioner has been able to find a "landing spot" at Blessed Sacrament and would like to reassure them (and anyone reading) that we have a younger generation of leaders coming up who are currently sincerely (and imperfectly) fighting the good fight and pursuing holiness at St. Barbara. Until then, I'll also second what that reviewer had to say about Blessed Sacrament. It is led by a great pastor and a strong Youth Ministry team. Any leader who comes from their Anchored Youth Ministry is solid in faith and compassionate by default. I find myself coming here to be a participant to get my own nourishment and would highly recommend everyone else to as well. As for the Mass. Highly recommend. 10/10 would do it again (every week of course)... at any parish in our One, Holy, and Apostolic Catholic Church (all Masses are the same after all).

Hi there. About 7…read moreyears ago I moved to the area and it was overwhelming to find a church-- not because of a lack of options, but you can't get a feel for the place from a website. Here's some info I wish I knew about a church before I went to visit... What do we believe? We love Jesus. And people. Stonebridge is a non denominational evangelical church. Actually, this is an area where the website can explain better than I can-- here's the statement of faith and core value outline: http://www.stonebridgecc.org/about-us/what-we-believe What are Sundays like? We meet in an industrial area within the Gibo Kodama Chairs building. There a few signs leading up to the church, parking is plenty and it's easy to find. There's coffee/tea/water before service that you can bring in with you. Service starts at 10:30AM, begins with worship music, announcements, and praying for people. There is a quick "greet your neighbor" time, but they don't ask new people to stand or anything that puts a spotlight on you. The message is typically given by one of our 2 staff pastors, they have pretty different styles. We have a pastor who is in his 20s and single, and another who is... well, I don't know how old (I'm not going to ask!), but all his kids are out of college. They both overflow with the love of Jesus and bring great perspectives to the Bible. How long will I be there? Service ends before noon, but stay for refreshments! It's a light lunch and we love getting to know people during this time. Lots of people will greet you and you definitely won't sit alone. This fellowship time wraps up around 1PM-ish, though you're welcome to leave whenever you like. Who are they? A loving, super casual, accepting group of about 100ish multi-generational people. I know, I'm sure all churches say that... People come from all walks of life. I know this because they share openly on where they've been and what they struggle with now. There are people who wanted to go to church, but didn't think they could because of what they were doing in their life, and they say Stonebridge is the one church where they felt comfortable and accepted. No need to clean up your life first or put on a happy face. Just come, be real, and we want to know you for who you are. I love how our church loves people. Most people are in shorts and flip flops even on those few days it rains. We're casual and there's no need to dress up. Come as you are! It's such a blessing to be at a multi-generational church. We have kids, youth, young adults, and adults of all ages. I'm so blessed by the wisdom of those older than me and that I can hang out with and invest in our youth. We don't have cliques, we're not big enough to have that struggle. Everyone talks to everyone. That said, our age groupings are not big-- there's usually about 5-10 kids in our children's ministry (occurs during Sunday service, though kids are welcome in Sunday service if they like), 10-20 in our young adult group, etc. Oh yeah, and a lot of people here like Hockey. The church used to be next to The Rinks in Huntington Beach. When should I go? Come for Sunday service. There are weeknight meetings as well (Small groups, youth group, college group, etc.), but it's easiest to come on a Sunday and meet a few people then. Service is at 10:30AM and there's a Bible study at 9AM if you'd like to join then. If you come, ask for Kristen (that's me)! See? You already know someone at Stonebridge :)
