Venice Church

Very friendly and open church. The pastor is just an incredible guy and light in this world. Would recommend this church to anyone in the LA area. If you grew up in a fundi household and are trying to set things straight in your own beliefs I’d highly recommend this church as a safe space.

I love the genuine warmth and care of Venice Church. The service is so relatable and the sermons authentic to the heart

What an amazing place ! So friendly , childcare is amazing , the pastor is incredible . Im engaged for the complete hour of service on the edge of my seat . I leave wanting more and that doesn't happen with every church I have been . Oh and the music , INCREDIBLE! Overall , quite possible best church I have ever been to.

This church has been here since I’ve lived in Mar Vista for over 30 years. They have kindly allowed Steve with Petramale Pizza to have a pop-up of the world’s best pizza every FRIDAY. This is the best best best pizza! This is from me studying abroad in Italy and traveling around the world. There’s nothing like it! Please support your local community and try some of his pizza on Fridays.

If you are like so many other people in the Venice area, either your church attendance and relationship with God has slowed over the past couple years, or you have wondered about this Higher Power and are curious to understand Christianity better.

If you are either curious or wanting to simply get back to church, Venice Church is the place.

Amazing pastor and staff that is personable, caring and approachable. (I got coffee with two people from Venice Church in the first two weeks I went)

Amazing music and worship. The band is so good, and the three sermons that I have been to personally resonated with me.

Diverse congregation. Black, White, Brown, Young, Old, Single, Married. I feel like it’s a real community, like it represents LA.

What are you waiting for? Just come once. First step is the most important.

I have been a member of the Eastlake community for several years. I recently moved to Long Beach from San Diego and could not find a place where I belonged. I remembered that Eastlake had a church in Venice. I walked in and knew I was home. The people are warm and welcoming.
There’s always something going on at the church or in the community if you are hungry for a way to serve and give back.

Rooted in faith and the Bible, the messages are powerful and relevant to where we are today. The worship team gets us going and then Pastor Mark makes us laugh, cry, look up, and look deep to help us find ourselves and our path.

It’s a New Year. If you found yourself in need of something during the holidays and you can’t put your finger on it, maybe stop by and give us a visit. Maybe Venice Church can help you find what you need

It’s worth a visit! We take faith seriously, but we have a lot of fun doing it.

Love this church! And so do my kids! It takes a lot for my kids to like a church since they are very comfortable with our current one in Chino Hills, Inland Hills Church. I was looking for a church In Venice where my daughter lives with her father. This one feels a little similar to the current one we attend. First time we went, it was so nice and laidback. Everybody was friendly and greeted us at the door with all smiles. I knew it was the right church because it felt like ours. My little one liked her classroom, no complaints. The Pastor was lively and full of energy. I really enjoyed the Mother’s Day message today and especially the last song where he recognized all the moms. Plus, I received a Rose and the end of service. They even had my little one Make a picture frame with her picture in it to give to me for Mother’s Day, it was really touching. I will continue to visit this church while I visit my older daughter. Every service has a great message. Don’t let One bad review Keep you from visiting, you have to visit yourself.
