The Shoreline Church

"I truly wanted to love this church. I attended the women's group for several months. I was shocked (and saddened) to learn women weren't allowed leadership positions high up in the church. People were nice but I was stunned to hear anti-LGBTQ talk by some of the members in small group discussions. I couldn't get away fast enough."

"The shoreline church is a come as you are congregation with arms wide open. I found this church through a fried and it has just been a fit for me because I’m a surfer, love the ocean and love Jesus but not a big fan of some traditional churches that lack passion, energy and life. You’ll find inspiring and inspirational sermons along with great music. A little over 2 years ago, I began attending Monday night Celebrate Recovery held at the shoreline church, including taking the step study last year and that has been ever life-changing. I highly encourage you to go as you are with an open heart and be healed of life’s hurts, hang-ups and habits!!"

"My family has been coming to the Shoreline Church for over 10 years, and we've have seen many changes since the days of the San Clemente Community Center, but one thing that hasn't changed is the "Come as you are" and "Sandy feet friendly" mentality that permeates this church. Never before had I experienced anything like the The Shoreline Church, which I now consider my family, and I feel truly blessed to hear the humble, bible-centered teachings every Sunday."

"I have attended Shoreline Church of San Clemente since it's opening. I love the community of caring people. I love the teaching, which is Biblically right-on! The worship music is superb - a nice variety of the stand up and clap-type to the mellow, soulful get close to God stuff. What I like the best has to be the many generations represented. We started as a young church with young families. Those families have grown up over the past 13 years, which is so much fun to watch. I would encourage anyone who is searching for just the right church to call home to come visit us."

"I live in the south bay and I attended the Mother's Day service as my wife and I were looking for a new house to rent in San Clemente. I was so happy to hear the gospel of our Lord proclaimed from the pulpit. I went back the following week to pick up some furniture in the area and stopped by again, and I gave God all the glory once again as they faithfully delivered the gospel again. I pray that the pastors that are called to preach will not be afraid of the people or look to please board members but are faithful to the our Lord who called them out for service. It was a great experience."
