Clairemont Emmanuel Baptist Church

This church is so amazing. Pastor Kenny is great! He goes out of his way to talk to everyone after the service and knows pretty much every name in the church whether you come once a month or every Sunday. I consider these people my family. Everyone is so kind hearted and genuine. They have multiple small groups throughout the week to fit any schedule, it’s a great way to get in the word and to meet other believers. My relationship with God started here, you get such a real perspective of God and His love for us and Pastor Kenny touches on so many different topics that are found in almost everyone’s life. I can’t tell you all enough how much this church means to me and so many others. There’s a traditional service earlier and then a more contemporary service after. The church has small groups, mentoring, all different classes taught by Pastor Kenny not to mention the passion for missions is huge in CEBC. Give this church a try, i promise you will not regret it.

Excellent church gorgeous view of San Diego Mission Bay. great pastor with excellent well thought out messages. refreshing salvation invitations are done. Members are well informed. Music pastor is excellent. great church to worship Him.

I Became a Christian through the Calvary Costa Mesa system… love everyone there, but really enjoy this church.

The Friendliest Church in San Diego. From the moment you walk onto the campus, you are met by people greeting you, talking to you and genuinely welcoming you. There are so many churches that try to elude to the fact they are welcoming but Clairemont REALLY is. There are so many missionaries that come from this church, I believe that might have something to do with it. You will never find yourself alone or on the sidelines without people walking up to you before or after the services. The pastor is truly a pastor, not just someone to fill the pulpit. He makes it his personal mission to get to know everyone and to speak to them. We went to many churches where we went for over a year and no one ever even spoke to us that this church was a breath of fresh air to us. Go for the fellowship, stay for Sunday School and coffee too!

A solid, quiet, committed church which is a cornerstone of Clairemont. It is surprisingly deep in personal warmth. The membership has been there a long time — but the church is steadily growing, even as old members die off.
That is one of the strengths of CEBC: It is demographically diverse with both young and old, single and family. The preaching is consistently interesting and relevant and always Biblical. No weird stuff, no strange doctrines, just honest and intelligent teaching.
With 30+ small groups and at least three adult Sunday classes, CEBC is also an connectional church. You can form friendships, study deeply, and find involvement. One of the main things is MISSIONARY COMMITMENT. This church sends missionaries out and funds them.
It takes a while to discover the depth and honesty of this church — but it is worth it.
