American Martyrs Church 1431 Deegan Place, Manhattan Beach, CA 90266

"Mass and a christening. Beautiful church and monsignor is a dynamic personality."

"I love this church.. closer to my house and so many families and little kids.. I love it"

"The best Catholic Church! Quietude and silence place the parishioner or visitor in a recollective mind set! Contributes to providing peace and spiritual reading without individual or groups gathering for multiple devotions: rosary, novena, Sacred heart of Jesus, Mary of Perpetual help … it never ends. At AMC there is an opportunity for God’s grace to step in and help the faithful to spend time for individual prayer. Family oriented and around the clock activities, centered on Christ enhances human communication and inter relationships among the parishioners. Friendly environment, helpful to each other."

"I went for the Sunday Mass Service on 9/17/23. I was greeted warmly by one of the parish staff. I introduced myself as a visitor and I told the gentleman that I found their church on YELP and they topped the list for Best Catholic Churches in the Manhattan Beach Area. When the mass started, MSGR John Barry, the Pastor, acknowledged all the visitors of their parish. I was elated when he asked who was the one visiting from Las Vegas to please raise her hand. I was sitting in the 3rd row so he spotted me right away. Msgr Barry welcomed me again, asked for my name and introduced me to the crowd of parishioners. He could not believe that I found his church through YELP. It was a wonderful Sunday service coupled with the Monsignor’s sense of humor! The church was beautiful, the choir and the staff were amazing, the people were all welcoming. What a Blessed Sunday it was for me!"

"My place of worship for nearly a decade. The most amazing priests, terrific sermons each Sunday, and a place to call home no matter what city I travel to. I always look forward to seeing my Catholic family, especially my Cornerstone Sisters, when I am in town. Nothing better than a mass at American Martyrs Catholic Community!! All are welcome!! ~ Denise O'Brien"
