Item Detail
Day and time Every Sunday, 10:00 am
Address 5151 Argyle Road, El Sobrante, CA 94803
Who is welcome All people; the church states it celebrates diversity and affirms full inclusion
Stated purpose Live by faith, be known by love, be a voice of hope

The church describes its mission in three phrases — living by faith, being known by love, and being a voice of hope — and frames its welcome as extending to "all people, of all orientations, who seek to love God and each other." If inclusion is the deciding factor for you, that statement is the clearest signal on the site.

What else happens at the same location

Several gatherings beyond Sunday worship are listed, all at Keislar Hall, 5151 Argyle Road:

  • Community Game Night — Nov 7 and Dec 5, 5:00 pm
  • Blessing's Closet — Dec 12, 10:00 am

If you are planning a first visit and want a lower-pressure setting than a service, a game night is a practical way to see the space and meet people. Dates listed on the site are specific to the posted calendar, so confirm before traveling for a particular event.

Checking the current schedule before you go

The site's Upcoming Events and Sermons sections are the places to verify what is current. Recent sermon entries include "Moses and the Burning Bush" (Sep 27, 2026), "El Sobrante Stroll - Out of this World" (Sep 20, 2026), and "Moses' Birth" (Sep 13, 2026). Listening to a recent sermon is a reasonable way to get a feel for the preaching before attending in person.

For anything not covered on the page — such as seasonal service changes or accessibility questions — use the Contact or Office sections of the site rather than assuming the 10:00 am time holds on every date.

Practical notes for a first visit

  • Arrive a few minutes early. The address is a single site with Keislar Hall as the named indoor space for events; allow time to find the right entrance.
  • Giving is optional and separate. The site offers one-time or scheduled recurring giving, described as "simple and secure." Nothing on the page indicates that giving is required to attend.
  • Members can update records. The church asks each family member to complete a roughly 5-minute database form with current contact information and communication preferences — relevant only if you are already part of the congregation.

The short answer for planning purposes: Sunday, 10:00 am, 5151 Argyle Road, and everyone is explicitly welcome.
