Theodore Kacius It was an exhilarating experience to meet Fr. Matthew Spencer, Oblate of St. Joseph, with whom I had become familiar through his work on Relevant Radio. I found friendly people after a morning mass there while on vacation in Santa Cruz who were very helpful with suggesting a local State Park to visit as well as just being available to me for some time that we could share our love of Jesus and His church with one another. The secretary in the office made herself available to me for conversation and I was very able to enjoy time for prayer and reflection in the chapel. I also enjoyed the coffee shop and the outdoor seating and garden area. Beautiful place to sit and reflect on ones life journey and the possible paths forward from here, hearing the Santa Cruz ocean waves rolling in to the shoreline just across the street.

Sarah Johnson I have been attending this church for quite some time, and I cant express enough how much of a welcoming and spiritually enriching community it is. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the sense of fellowship among the members is truly heartwarming. The sermons delivered by the pastor are thought-provoking, relevant, and delivered with genuine passion. The worship services are beautifully conducted, creating a peaceful and uplifting environment. What I appreciate most about this church is the emphasis on inclusivity and acceptance. The church actively engages in community outreach and charitable activities, embodying the teachings of compassion and kindness. The various programs and events cater to people of all ages and walks of life, making it a place where everyone can find a sense of belonging. The leadership and staff are not only dedicated but also approachable and caring. The pastoral care provided to the congregation is exceptional, fostering a sense of support and unity. Overall, this church is more than a place of worship; its a community that genuinely cares for its members and the broader community. I feel blessed to be part of such an inspiring church family and would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a spiritual home filled with love, acceptance, and a commitment to making a positive impact on the world.

Reviewed by the Communit (31):

Mark Bernbeck I was hesitant to go back to a church after previous bad experiences at different churches. When I started going to Inner Light, I realized that I wasnt being preached to as much as I was given tools for living a harmonious and meaningful life. Reverend Deborah Johnson taught me life skills that I was waiting for my whole life. The people who attend are also so genuine and caring. Anyone can benefit from their philosophies.
