First United Methodist Church of Chula Vista

I’ve been attending this church for 8 years now. I love the community of people found here and I feel that this church is «in line» with my belief system because it is very inclusive to all people and has a very service-​oriented nature. Jesus told us to love and serve our neighbors and this church does just that.
I also love with the diverse and excellent music program here! They have quality kids choirs, a large traditional sanctuary choir, an amazing women’s chorus, handbell choir and a modern band which plays music that I actually listen to. They have a concert series too which provides concerts year round that are free to the community. If you are looking for a church with good quality music — look no further!
The facilities are great and I hear their preschool is the best in the area. They have 4 services each Sunday. Each one is slightly different so that everyone can find the worship style that best fits them.
I would highly recommend this church to anyone. You don’t have to have been raised a Methodist to find a home here.
Come check it out for yourself!

I have been a member of this church for over 25 years which goes back to its prior location in Western Chula Vista. This church has been great for my whole family. My children have been active in the children’s and youth activities and it has helped guide them to be responsible follows of Christ. I love how there is something for everyone. Different worship styles, small groups and mission work.

I grew up at this church long before it relocated to the Rancho Del Ray site it sits on now.
I only attend this church once a year during Jesus’ birthday but I still feel the magic of Jesus when I set foot inside, just like how I felt Jesus’ presence as a child attending church and the children’s choir many years ago.
What can I say, I’m a Methodist and if there’s anything about The United Methodist Church they have Open Minds, Open Hearts and Open Doors.

Everyone’s familiar with these long suburban roads with branches that empty into lots filled with cloned tract housing. They’re all over the place. The traffic that builds up on these streets as people go to and from work can be annoying, to put it euphemistically. However, here’s this church on the corner of e H. that takes full advantage of their captive traffic-​jammed audience.
There’s a small marquee on the street side of this church that can hold up to 3 lines of text. The creativity that this church puts into constantly updating this marquee is amazing. The text is often timely (reflecting current events) or humorous (in a refreshingly secular way,) and you can’t help but wonder how the Sunday services must be there, even if you don’t go to church. I find myself actually looking forward to seeing this sign everytime i drive by.
