Forward Church - Irvine (CA)

Heidi Misken I can’t say enough good things about this church. I’ve been a part of spiritual communities before, but this church is the first time I ever really felt like I was part of a forever family. The pastors are the best teachers of the word of God that I’ve ever encountered. The worship team is so anointed. Everyone who is serving in the entire church exudes the love of Christ. Stop by and check it out, you won’t regret it!

Amy Beames I’ve been attending VCI for several years now, and I’ve grown tremendously in my faith here. I know so many people at this church who are real people with flaws, but who are growing because they are sincerely following Jesus and pursuing a relationship with Him. Come join us on a Sunday, and get plugged into a community group or Bible study so we can do life with you, too!

Josie Donato Love it here, always biblical and honest. Great options for kids, nice gift shop, coffee available and the Bible study group options are endless so many choices to pick from.

Matt Collins Have recently began attending this church, which is located in the Woodbridge village, when they began having masses indoors. The mission statement is: Guided by the Holy Spirit, St John Neumann Parish of Irvine shares the Good News of Jesus Christ with people of all ages, diverse faiths and cultures, forming a welcoming, worshiping Catholic community.

Daniel Kovalyov If you’re looking for answers for your life, this is the church where you will feel like at home. Great community, great pastor!

Hayley Roderick Wow what can I say! Hope Christian Church has absolutely changed my family’s life for the better. Before coming to Hope, we never went to Church regularly so it was a little intimidating trying out a Church and sticking with it, but after going to Hope once, we’ve never felt more at home. Everyone is so welcoming and nice, but truly they are just normal people! People who are ready to better their lives through Jesus. Pastor Josh has been the best pastor we could ask for. His sermons really hit home and are so convicting, in a good way. 10/10. Highly recommend, especially if you are a new family with kids. My girls love Sunday school every week!

Dan Fomenko Great church that preaches the Gospel, believes in the entire bible, and encourages fellowship with the Holy Spirit. Grateful for Pastor Mark and a community that is imperfect, but you can truly tell that everybody just wants more and more of Jesus

Peter Parker Mariners Irvine hosted Dadfest in honor of Fathers Day. Such a wonderful event and sense of community and purpose. Great food, music, and fun, too. The church spreads across a park-like campus. A little disorienting at first for newcomers. Still, the staff and volunteers gave warm welcomes. Returned for worship. Fantastic experience. Appreciated the message, in particular, and how Pastor Eric explained Romans 28:8 in a way never shared before and connected it to the series being taught on Genesis. Brilliant! Two bonuses: a terrific bookstore and cafe. (Get the chorizo and egg burrito.)

S R We’re so blessed to have a beautiful church and clergy especially Father Eugene and Fr Thomas who are very compassionate about the church! We are also thankful for the many hard working ministries available to participate . Looking forward to the new building and development of St Thomas More which is so needed!

Erika Karimi I can’t say enough good things about this church. The community is so warm, welcoming, and genuinely inclusive—it’s a place where everyone is truly embraced. The theology is thoughtful, compassionate, and grounded in love. For the first time in a long time, I feel like I’ve found a church home!
