The Oceanside Sanctuary Will Celebrate 150 Years of Community Service and Renewal, November 22-23

On November 21, 1875 thirteen pioneering souls started a small family church in a one-room schoolhouse near Mission San Luis Rey in what is now Oceanside, California. They called it simply, The Christian Church at San Luis Rey because it was one of the first congregations of The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) denomination in Southern California.

OSC's Food Pantry Steps up when a Local School District Needed Aid!

The Sanctuary Pantry Steps Up to Serve!
When we heard about a need in our local school district, we responded by providing daily breakfast for over 100 children participating in a summer program to strengthen their English skills.

We’ve just wrapped up week two and have already served 1,000 breakfasts!
With two more weeks to go, we’re on track to serve another 1,000 meals.

Thank you to everyone who’s made this possible, your support is feeding minds and hearts.

PS: If you are moved by our pantry work and would like to help further our mission and feed more families, consider volunteering or making a one-time/recurring donation. it’s your help that makes this important work possible! Thank you!
