Experience God's extragant and unconditional love - ALL are welcome!. A little over two years ago, I started searching for a new church home. Made a list of churches within a given area, with the goal of visiting each in turn. Never got past the first ? the United Church of Christ of La Mesa. The warmth of the welcome, the sermon, the compatibility of the progressive theology with my beliefs and the amazing range of activities , both ?in-house? and in the broader community spelled ?home? to me.

And home it has become. Perhaps the most telling result for me is the depth of my involvement. I had long been a ?regular? at another church?s services, but had never felt drawn to participate further. Has that ever changed! It all started when I volunteered to write a column for the newsletter. As such things often do, that opened the floodgates. I now edit the paper, do publicity work, design posters, participate in various classes and groups, etc. ? and, most important, have experienced an expansion of belief that has opened my eyes and heart to a whole new world of faith.

As a thriving community of faith committed to the belief that God?s love is extravagant and unconditional, we welcome EVERYONE. As a church family we ?do together what we cannot do alone.?

I invite you to ?give us a try!?
