RSVP TO JOIN US IN-PERSON AT the 9:00AM (INDOORS) OR 10:30AM (OUTDOORS) SERVICE, OR WATCH CHURCH ONLINE
We all want happy, healthy relationships. And we have our moments…But for the most part, a lot of us feel like we have no idea what we’re doing. Some of us didn’t grow up with great examples. Many of us inherited unhelpful instincts. But, what if you could give those around you something better than you got?
WELCOME TO SOUTH HILLS COSTA MESA
We believe that church should be a place where everyone is welcome and anyone can belong – regardless of race, class, or creed. We try our best to create that environment at South Hills – even while we’re social distancing – and we would love for you to visit online and experience it for yourself.

We’re so excited to welcome you back to church in person!
9:00am Indoor Service: We are currently offering limited RSVP’s for the 9:00am service indoors. It is a no-touch service with social distancing measures in place, and masks are required while inside the facility.
10:30am Outdoor Service: We are still offering RSVP’s for the 10:30am service outdoors. This is also a no-touch service with social distancing measures in place, and masks are strongly encouraged at least until you find your seats.
10:30am Elementary & Pre-School Programming – NO NURSERY We are re-launching our Elementary & Pre-school programs during the 10:30am service only. Since this is indoors, there are a limited number of spaces. masks will be required, and we’ll be doing temperature checks on kids and volunteers before they enter the building.
Things are obviously a little different than when you’ve come to church in the past, so we have a couple bits of important information for you:
- Please bring your own face-masks for anyone in your party over 2yrs old. If you don’t have any, we can provide some.
- Most children’s ministries will be closed. We are re-opening our SH Kids Elementary Service during the 10:30am service only. Please ensure that your children are included in your count during the reservation process.
- All services are now family-friendly, which means there might be some little voices chatting during service – and we’re ok with that! While not everyone may be used to having kids in service, Pastor Chris is very comfortable with it and we know that is just the current reality.
- If you are bringing kids, be prepared. We encourage you to bring any snacks they may want, as well as anything that may help to keep them entertained. For younger kids, this could be coloring pages or sticker-sheets. For older kids this could be a device with headphones.
BEFORE YOU SAVE YOUR SEATS
Be sure to ask the following questions on behalf of your entire group:
- Am I, and my party, willing to wear masks and participate in appropriate social distancing? (Anyone over 2yrs old)
- Am I showing any flu-like symptoms?
- Have I had a fever of 100.4 or higher in the past 14 days?
- Have I had exposure to someone who has tested positive for COVID-19?
- Is there any medical reason why I believe I shouldn’t be around others?
If you answered yes to any questions 2-5, we ask you to participate in South Hills Online experience this weekend.

Parenting is the most rewarding and difficult job there is.
Whether you are dealing with specific 2020 challenges like being your child’s BFF/chef/teacher/parent/entertainment coordinator, or you’re just facing “normal” parenting challenges, we wanted to set some time aside to hear from a panel of parents.
But here’s the thing: they don’t have all the answers and they aren’t going to suggest things that are unrealistic. We’ve invited them to share realistic tips, tricks, ideas and practices that have helped them navigate the last 8 months as well as the years before that.
So come out to be encouraged, discover that you aren’t alone, and pick up some helpful ideas to implement for yourself and your family!
Our panel is hosted by Costa Mesa’s South Hills Kids Director Lee-Anne Gasparik, and includes:
- Chris & Es Kretzu – Costa Mesa Campus Pastors
- Efren & Monica Pena – Santa Clarita Campus Pastors
- Chris & Laura Sonksen – Founding Pastors, South Hills Church
- Moses & Jill Camacho – Executive Pastors, South Hills Church
