Welcome to Community Presbyterian Church

 of San Juan Capistrano —

 The Small Church with a Big Heart

We are pleased you could join us.  This is our way of reaching newcomers and persons interested in visiting one of the oldest, established churches in Southern California. Community Presbyterian Church (CPC) serves the communities of San Juan Capistrano, Capistrano Beach, Dana Point, Laguna Beach, Laguna Niguel, and other nearby areas of Southern Orange Country.

We're a relatively small but very active community church, which appeals to families and individuals who want intimate worship and a spiritual family. We offer all of the major worship and church education programs of larger churches, and we have one of the most professional and inspirational music programs anywhere. We pride ourselves on our ministry programs and the support we give to our congregation and community.

CPC features two Sunday services.  The first service, beginning at 8:45 a.m., has a more contemporary format and music by our Praise Band. Our early service is followed by a reception on the Church patio where you'll have a chance to meet other members and friends.  The second service at 10:30 a.m. is a traditional program, with the Chancel Choir and organist providing inspirational music.

We have complete Youth and Adult Christian Education programs during and after church services.

One thing you will notice about CPC is that it's a very friendly church. We're all here to worship the Lord in a comfortable environment. We provide a worship experience that makes our members and guests feel "right at home."

Community Presbyterian Church of San Juan Capistrano would love to have you join us in our House of Worship.

We at Community Presbyterian Church seek to nourish personal relationships with God and support commitments to be disciples of Jesus Christ, through the presence of the Holy Spirit.

Mission Statement

  Participating regularly in God-centered worship

  Studying the Bible 

  Engaging in an active prayer life

  Being caring and accountable in relationships with others

  Being a church family to all

We Believe That

All power in heaven and earth is given to Jesus Christ by Almighty God, who raised Christ from the dead and set him above all rule and authority, all power and domination, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come. God has put all things under the Lordship of Jesus Christ and has made Christ head of the Church, which is his body.

Christ calls the Church into being, giving it all that is necessary for its mission to the world, for its building up, and for its service to God. Christ is present with the Church in both Spirit and Word. It belongs to Christ alone to rule, to teach, to call, and to use the church as he wills, exercising his authority by the ministry of women and men for the establishment and extension of his Kingdom.
