Yelp review for church? I don't think we should be evaluating churches based on Yelp reviews to be…read morehonest. Sometimes a person's criteria for rating a church are usually kind of superficial anyway. Read the New Testament and you will see all sorts of problematic churches that Paul had to work with and all the ways Jesus evaluated the 7 churches in Revelation 2-3 (which is also representative of the whole church!). Every church has its strengths and weaknesses, and every church is a work in progress! Sometimes an outsider's review can be truthful of course, but sometimes you can also just have a skewed picture and idea because on Yelp (or any other platform for the matter) you're bound to just have an upset review bomber who had a negative experience that's not true for everyone. Sometimes you have to hear from an insider who knows what it's like and has been here for a while and had a full range of experiences in the church! Sure we might confuse an insider's perspective as biased, but honestly who isn't? We're kidding ourselves if we think we aren't! To be upfront, I'm reviewing as someone who's served here as a youth pastor at our church for the past several years. And yes, we're aware of our weaknesses and flaws, and we continue to learn more about different things we need to address and improve. But thank God because no matter what people think, Christ loves the church and will one day present the church without blemish in splendor, because He who began a good work will bring it to completion at the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. All Nations Church (ANC) is the KM and All Nations Community Church (ANCC) is the English congregation. They have an interdependent relationship and are probably one of the few Korean immigrant churches to be able to pull it off! We are under the Christian Reformed Church, so we are a little more on the moderately conservative end! Sure we're not necessarily the most charismatic church, but I can tell you there are in fact people here who are "on fire for God" (as one reviewer put it). Our teaching is gospel-centered and we're big on the gospel-centered-life curriculum from serge! We have quite a few pastors, all very differently gifted, and I guess some can be pretty cool ya know It is borderline mega church, so expect it to be big and operate a little bit more under mega church dynamics! So community can be cliquey. Best way to get plugged in is through joining a community or family group, serving in another ministry (we're always in need of people to serve!), or just being actively involved in other events and gatherings outside of Sunday services! Sunday lunches when available are pretty good! There are also other snack/coffee bars as well! We have BeBright coffee too! Services can get pretty packed and parking can get busy! Check us out! We'd love to have you!

All Nations is a global, missions-based church. There was one pastor who was pretty legit in terms…read moreof his knowledge of scripture, and you could see the fruit in his devotion to prayer; and I miss Pastor Choi very much. This review is purely for the English ministry and not the services my parents go to. The pastors for the Korean congregation are on fire or so it seems. English ministry has always been high school all over again, where I've witnessed ugly politics in the past and again when I returned to the church to visit. Pastor Howard was great, but the lacking sense of community and the fire for God didn't seem to be there. If you are non-Korean, this is not the place for you. Even though this is "mission-based" as this church labels itself to be, it's far from being open to non-Koreans and extremely xenophobic to any outsiders, as Korean culture is VERY xenophobic. If you are a new Korean immigrant and want to socialize and network this is your "church." I did not find the fire for God in any of the leadership, and the "politics'' of the church was still very evident. This church may be for you, but not for me.

The Calvary Baptist Church has been a second home for me. This is a small church and everyone is…read morevery welcoming. Pastor Anthony is a great Shepard! He is very knowledgeable about the Bible and preaches the Word of God boldly. I'm shocked to read some of the previous reviews from a few years ago. A true Shepard preaches the word of God in truth and Honor, which is what pastor Anthony does and should do! Unfortunately the word of God offends some individuals, but as a Shepard of his flock, pastor A.F. Teaches verse by verse of the Bible, it's not his opinions, it's the truth! We go to church to be fed the word of God and learn, the TRUE word of God. Sometimes this can be offensive or harsh but as believers we are called to live by biblical truths. I recommend this church to anyone who is new to the faith as I was, to anyone who is more interested and eager to learn about the Bible and get to know the Living God through his word rather than going to church to be told what you want to hear. I highly recommend this family of believer and for this to be a church were new comers can call home.

Regardless of his teaching skills, A.F. is not qualified to be a pastor for a number of reasons I'd rather not spew online (feel free to PM me if you need to). Unfortunately, my own family and many others I'm aware of have been personally injured by him. As such, I feel compelled to warn others to avoid this church as long as AF is the pastor there.

Glendale is a very progressive church, and that is the reason why I'm still a dedicated Christian at 20 years old. I feel the church aims to learn and grow rather than keeping to the comfort of exclusion and outdated ideals that are not truly bible-centric. I am always proud to introduce and include my non Christian friends in events at my church such as the annual Christmas concert and our monthly group talks (always good food and good company!). Make your next Sunday enriching, and visit Glendale Church of Christ! Who knows, this church might be your new home in LA. P.s- Brian Shackman, our tried and true preacher, is hilarious

My dad eventually follow later in life. My mother is more spiritual and a lot of my immediate or close family fall all over Christian and Catholic based faiths. I have lots of Jewish friends, some Muslim, some Pagan and so forth. I've always considered myself a very open spiritualist with the quote from the movie Dogma resonating with me, "It doesn't matter what you have faith in, just that you have faith" - Serendipity (Selma Hayek) Which to me also stands as, "It doesn't matter what you believe in, as long as you believe." I believe there is no one religion - there's truth and good in all of it, however also very much the opposite. It's hard for people to admit fault out of fear and to be more open to others for that same reason. At MCC they're very very open, mindful and considerate. I often attend events here, but do not attend the church services. I like supporting the community in the San Fernando Valley/Greater Los Angels and they very much support everyone especially the LGBTQ+. Solid parking, but the lot can fill up. Street parking available and plenty of restrooms. They've got beautiful rooms, clean restrooms and a really nice patio. Keep spreading the love MCC. I'll keep doing the same.

One Wednesday a month, Avatar meets here for like minded people where one can learn more about the arcane world of SM & other related subjects. In many ways, this MCC UCC church is many things to many people in ever diverse Los Angeles which is a good thing. May a thousand blossoms bloom. Talking about blooms, MCC UCC church has invested a lot of time & money in creating a mostly drought resistant, xeric raised garden, but no one seems to water many of the plants. Even drought resistant plants especially in pots need water once a month so that some of them looked distressed. Hopefully, some of the congregants will take pity on the poor plants & water them occasionally especially the Staghorn Fern on the back wall & the tropical yellow & white fragrant blooming Plumeria nearby.

If you fit into the club you enjoy it. If not then not. My mother attends this church, and I have gone a couple times. It used to seem harmless and good for her. Now, it has changed. Pastor has changed, he is nothing like Andy. Also, a woman named Nancy who seems to be considered worthy there at LCPC, that has been talking a lot to my 92 year old mother with dementia. Nancy seems to believe she can come into our family matters, and coerced my mother with overdue force to take me out of my house away from from mother without any provocation. I have taking care of my mom for over 3 years now. This person has never been very helpful or present in Mom's life till very recently and her advice has been aggressive and intrusive and absolutely not near a Christian way to behave! Public should beware...if this "Deacon" Nancy, and that new pastor, Yousef are representative of the values and moral obligations of Christians in general in our community, we all should be appalled. Shame on them. Dividing a family, creating havoc instead of peace, allowing and with force putting one more homeless person on the street. Does any of that sound Christian like? Horrible. Don't go here! It's not where Jesus would go, or get close to. Run away

I have been a parishioner at St. Robert Bellarmine Church since 1995. For over 30 years, my family…read moreand I have attended Mass, donated to the church, and volunteered our time. This church has been an important part of our lives. I was married here, my sister was married here, and so was my late younger brother. In January 2026, my brother was diagnosed with an aggressive form of pancreatic cancer. As his condition worsened, my mother reached out to Father Marco in April 2026, came over to his office, and asked if he could come to his home to visit my brother, pray with him, and give him a blessing during his final days. Unfortunately, Father Marco declined the visit and instead chose to simply just give my brother a call. He passed away in May 2026. At a time when our family was desperate for spiritual comfort, this response left us heartbroken and deeply disappointed. We had hoped our church would be there for us during one of the most painful moments of our lives. Over the years, I have seen significant effort devoted to fundraising and donations for the church and school, and I understand those needs are important. However, my experience left me feeling that when one of its longtime parishioners truly needed spiritual care and compassion, we did not receive it. This experience has profoundly affected my trust in the church. We never expected special treatment--only the kind of compassion, presence, and spiritual support that we believed our priest and faith community represented. Instead, we were left feeling abandoned, betrayed, and questioning the support I thought our church would provide in our family's darkest hour. I sincerely hope this feedback encourages reflection on the importance of being present for parishioners, especially those facing terminal illness and their grieving families. Moments like these are when the Church can make the greatest difference.
