Simple Church
At Rancho Vista we embrace creativity – and trying new things. To celebrate summer we decided to have our Sunday services in summer resemble a picnic. Everyone has come casual, brought their favorite patio chair, and enjoyed the wonder of worshiping outdoors. There is no better way to enjoy a Chula Vista morning than being with friends and neighbors and worshiping our great God!

It is your Destination, not your Intentions that matter
We all have places we want to end up in life. Yet the paths we choose often lead us away from our intended destinations. One poor decision can send us down the wrong road, crushing our dreams, and wasting years of our lives. As time passes, we look back wondering how we got off course, and how we can recover from broken dreams.
In this four-part series Destinations, we examine the disconnect between our dreams and the paths we take to reach them—that our direction, not our intentions, determines our destinations. Message titles: “The Path Principle,” “Looking Ahead,” “Lean Not,” and “Attention Deficit Disorder.” Sundays at 9 & 10:30 a.m.
Christmas Eve Family Service at 6 p.m.

Christmas Eve Candle Celebration 6 p.m.
A festive time of food, friends, and music as we celebrate the arrival on planet earth of Jesus Christ. It is one of the highlights of our church calendar as we conclude the Christmas Eve service with a candlelight ceremony.
Real life issues like money, sex, and marriage
I appreciate two couples who recently shared their personal stories of struggles, challenges, and victories in dealing with money and marriage. What I love about our church is we are “real”. Nobody is pretending like we have it all together - and when we share our honest stories of the difficulties of life – we all receive encouragement in our struggles.

Mike and Sara talk about money

Joey and Desteny share about their marriage!
