Sunridge Community Church, a non-denominational Christian church in Temecula, California, announced that this year, they are celebrating 30 years in ministry.

Sunridge was started in 1988 by six couples who had moved to the Temecula Valley with the dream of starting a church in the rapidly growing Valley. The church started as a Bible study in the home of a high school football coach, but soon grew too large for the home and began renting space in a local school. For the next 12 years, Sunridge continued to meet in that multi-purpose room for their Sunday services.

In 2003, Sunridge moved into the space the church still currently occupies—a renovated warehouse on Winchester Road in Temecula. Having a space of their own allowed the church to expand their ministry and outreach to the community. They now host Mothers of Preschoolers (MOPS), a bi-weekly group for mothers of young children, Grief Share, Divorce Care, and Survivors of Suicide Loss support groups. They also make their facilities available to the community for memorial services when a large space is needed. The church offers free counseling services, as well as mentoring programs. The church’s high school and middle school groups welcome teens from all over the valley at their mid-week meetings.

The church recently underwent a renovation of its multi-purpose room to be better equipped to accommodate large church and community events, and also modified one of their larger classrooms to better serve children and families with special needs. Also in the last several years, the church hired an ASL interpreter to include members of the deaf community in the main Sunday service, and has started a new group for senior adults and one for young adults in the Valley. The church partners with several community organizations, including Birth Choice, Prison Ministry, Community Mission of Hope, and the Brook, a ministry to the homeless community started by members of Sunridge.

Sunridge is also involved in ministry to those around the globe. They currently support missionaries serving throughout Asia, Africa, and Europe and have sent out teams for short-term missions projects to countries like Nepal, Romania, Cuba, and Mexico.

Britt Sipe, who has been the lead pastor at Sunridge since 2014, had this to say about Sunridge’s 30 years of ministry, “We are blessed to have been a part of this amazing community for 30 years now. As the Temecula Valley has continued to grow, we have grown along with it, addressing the spiritual, physical, and relational needs of those in the Valley. We want to be a place where people can develop an authentic relationship with God, as well as connect with others and serve their community.”

Sunridge Church welcomes anyone to attend their Sunday services, which are currently at 9:00 and 10:30 am, or any of the other events happening at their church. Sunridge Church is located at 42299 Winchester Road, Temecula, CA 92590. You can find out more about the church on their website: https://sunridgechurch.org/
