      Our South Bay campus serves the entire South Bay area with families joining us from Torrance, Redondo Beach, Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Palos Verdes Estates, Rancho Palos Verdes, Rolling Hills Estates, Rolling Hills, Carson, Lomita, and El Segundo. Within this church family is a group of people who love God and love each other. Each week we get together to worship through music and teaching. We’re into community, growing, and doing life together. And we’re glad you’re here!

      You were created to experience life with other people, and that’s why at Saddleback, we encourage you to get into a small group. Groups come in all shapes and sizes — married couples, singles, men, women, have kids, don’t have kids, workplace, under 20, over 40 — the list goes on. No matter where you are in life, there’s a group for you. Ready to dive in? Find a group that fits or start one of your own.

      Bold Faith

      Giving

      We give because God gave first. All that we have, or hope to have, comes from him. The Bible says that giving is a reminder that God is the supplier of everything. It teaches us to always put God first in our lives.
