LA Onnuri Church - Los Angeles (CA)

Joanie Kwong I grew up going to church my whole life but never seemed to find one that really encouraged & inspired me to grow spiritually and in community until I found Reconcile LA. I’m forever grateful to have stumbled upon this church after my fiancé at the time stumbled upon Pastor Daryl who did our premarital counseling. Pastor Daryl is a gift from God who’s words really touch in a way that I haven’t experienced from others. One of this church’s mission and goals is to provide a safe space and community for ALL Individuals regardless of background, race, history, etc. all are truly welcomed here! If I were to describe my time at Reconcile LA in a few words, it would be: authentic, loving, inclusive, and growth.

Hans Luna I visited the Blessed Sacrament Hollywood with my better half for Sunday Mass. Its in a convenient spot right in the heart of Hollywood, which made it easy to get to and there is ample parking. The staff—especially Martha, Samantha, and Janine—were friendly, engaging, and accommodating, which helped us feel at ease and welcomed. Father Paul gave a sincere, well-thought-out sermon that seemed to really connect with the parishioners. It was relatable and heartfelt. Their website is simple to navigate, and they keep their Instagram pretty active, which is nice if you want to stay updated. Its a great place to deepen your faith with a grounded, approachable community. We will definitely be part of the parish.

Roxie Beckles Beautiful church. Wonderful and welcoming congregation and staff. I really enjoy Sunday mass and just the peaceful environment to worship each week. Reverent Novus Ordo mass. For those who need this info: * All Sunday/Vigil/Holy Day masses accompanied with an organ and cantors. Sunday 10 and 12 have a full beautiful choir. Traditional vernacular missa cantata (some response in Latin depending on the season). Daily mass is low mass. * Straight forward Traditional Vatican II solemn celebration of the mass. Meaning you wont find many "liturgical abuses" that many find concerning if you are used to/looking for a more traditional Catholic mass. * WONDERFUL priests who are ON FIRE for Gods word, and pastoring the congregation. * Sunday mass it can be a little disruptive if you wish to pray or say the rosary beforehand. People gathering and chattering among themselves in the sanctuary. BUT... * Theres a BEAUTIFUL 24 hour Adoration chapel! So you can pray there or in the Marian Garden. * A wonderful church community. Coffee and donuts after mass which is great to meet other Catholics. And other great ministries to participate in. Plenty of parking as well.

Fran H I really appreciate the church has confession available in between 10:30 and 12:40 mass on Sunday. The homilies are very good and deep. Very pleasant community. Plenty of street parking.

Savannah Aldridge I was looking for a church to visit while on vacation, and I was definitely enticed by the fact that the Enchantment Under the Sea dance from Back to the Future was filmed here. While at the church, I was welcomed kindly and got to participate in worship with a Christ-loving community. I was especially delighted that I had stumbled upon the day of the church picnic and was invited to stay. Through the picnic, I met some wonderful parishioners who really showed me God in a way I didnt expect when I went into church that day. The churchs history, theology, and values are listed on their website. (Reposted from my old account.)

S Jason (Simchelin Guide) Absolutely fantastic experience of church from the sermon to the praise. They have guest speakers here once in a while whom are really great at speaking. The worship is like a live concert. Thats how great the praise team is. Pastor Alex is funny uses excellent rhetoric and has awesome sermons. This church has made me grow drastically in my spirituality. PTL. btw all are welcome. Im gay and Im happy with their stance. LGBT friendly is a plus.

Douglas Sims Great program

Stephen Edward Delman This is my home church where God is moving in miraculous ways. I welcome you to come and experience God‘s love, healing and a place of belonging where you are family.

Conner Evans This is the first church I really got plugged into since moving away from home for college. Im now a part of this church on a level that I didnt expect from any church. I feel like the community at this church are like family. I love that we always have free lunch on Sundays because it lets me hang out with such great people and talk about anything from God to random memes. I think that it is 100% worth your time! Edited to update review: Its been over 5 years since I wrote my last review and I am deeply grateful for all of the experiences I have had with this church family. The people and rhythms have changed a lot over the years, but I think that is to be expected in a church that is pursuing God in such a transient city. Committing to be a part of this community has been a joy. They draw me deeper into relationship with God and tangibly reflect the love that he has for me. All that to say, you should definitely check it out and see if it is the community that God wants you to meet you in. Worst case scenario, we still provide free lunches every Sunday! (which is actually extra awesome because it allows us to get to know you!)

Carlos Tejada This is a cool church. Beautiful sculptures and paintings. They have air conditioning. It doesnt not get hot in here!
