Vista La Mesa Christian Church Service Times
Worship Service 10:30 am on Sundays.
We also have services for special religious holidays, such as Christmas Eve, Ash Wednesday and Maundy Thursday.
Worship at VLMCC is about connecting with a God who welcomes each of us as a beloved child. We hope you’ll come and join us soon!
We aim for a casual but reverent atmosphere, with a blend of music styles for all ages. The service includes sharing in prayer and singing, hearing scripture, and engaging with the message, which connects the scriptures with our lives.
Communion (the Lord’s Supper) is part of every worship service, and everyone is welcome to participate, as you are comfortable. Members of the congregation join our pastor in leadership of every service.
It's been more than 5 years since the last service times update. Please make sure to contact the church to confirm service times.
