It's the start of an amazing journey of faith

We offer in-person and online worship services every weekend, in a variety of styles.

RB Community is a church located in north San Diego within the beautiful suburbs of Rancho Bernardo. We are a church that is growing into a future that includes comfortable transparency and assurance of God’s grace and love. This is a place that is experienced as a resource to the community, that reaches out in practical ways to assist those in need, as a joyful place for children and families, and as an opportune place to explore health and wholeness through the work of the Holy Spirit. We hope this is the kind of community where you will find what you need to know the peace and guidance of Jesus Christ.

We offer in-person and online worship services every weekend, in a variety of styles. Adult spiritual formation options and educational opportunities run throughout the week, and service opportunities for all ages run throughout the year. We have a unique preschool recognized for its inclusivity for children of all abilities, and we are blessed with beautiful spaces to worship God, to develop family ministries, to join in fellowship and raise up community programs. There are things happening every day of the week at RB Community.

We have a resourceful staff that assists us in discerning God's guidance so we can try new ministry and programming. Our members are active in a variety of events that impact the community and bless the world. Our vision is grounded in the words of Jesus, “From the believers shall flow rivers of living water.” John 7:38. In short, we believe encounters with Jesus transform lives.

We invite you to worship, or to ask questions – see for yourself if God is calling you to partner with us.

our story
We serve the community of north San Diego neighborhoods as a joyous resource for life and growth and have since 1965. As Presbyterians (PCUSA) we recognize we have a great system of governing a church, but as Christians we find an even stronger call to serve, to celebrate, to encourage, and to grow deep.
our purpose
We exist to reveal and to revel in God’s glory that is displayed throughout the world and the universe. God’s true nature, His relevance, and his care, are foundational to the direction in which we want to live and grow. We recognize the challenges our world faces regarding health and wellness. We aim to meet the needs that are in our path through God’s partnership and resource.
our future
We’re a church that relies on the energy of God to make our way into what’s next. This is an artisan church where creatives and spiritual explorers seek to understand Jesus Christ and to express that understanding, helping each other grow in faith, depth and insight. It’s a fun place to be with God. We are establishing new ministry for children and youth through drama, music, art, dance, study, games, play and service.
you
You can belong here. You can find a place where people want to know you and to explore faith with you. We’ve discovered that friendship is crucial to growing in faith… that and good times of food, worship and play. Check out the rest of the Events page and the rest of the website to see where you can find the open doorways to this community of faith.
