Active Duty Families

Purpose Statement

To support fellow military families serving our country in the armed forces.

TODO: Please add a description for the ministry!

The military asks those in their ranks for total commitment to protecting our country. Their commitment means demanding schedules and long deployments, impacting the service member and their families. Our mission is to help military families by providing a supportive community where they can receive help to bring hope, encouragement, and faith in God while facing difficult battles at home, and in defense of our country.


Volunteer meetings are the 4th Tuesday of each month

Location: MO2 Room 117

Time: 6:30pm - 8:30pm


The Support Group meetings are the 2nd Wednesday of each month

Location: Plaza Room 102

Time: 7:00pm - 9:00pm

Acts of Appreciation Military Outreach

We are a military outreach ministry that looks for ways to extend God's love to our military and their families whether they are as close as Camp Pendleton or as far away as Afghanistan. We feel responsible to honor those who serve in the armed forces defending our freedoms. We respond with acts of appreciation that include newborn baby baskets, goody bags to troops deployed around the globe, hosting deployment and welcome home events at Camp Pendleton, sponsoring retreats, and much, much more.

Local PEACE

Local PEACE serves our community in a variety of ways, the military, elderly, the incarcerated, those wanting to leave the adult entertainment industry, homeless, children, partnering with the Orange County District Attorney’s office, local hospitals and schools and we work directly in neighborhoods bringing God’s word to our community in unique ways.

Rick Warren

Founding PastorRick Warren

Pastor Rick Warren was born in San Jose, California. He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from California Baptist University, a Master of Divinity from Southwestern Theological Seminary, and Doctor of Ministry from Fuller Theological Seminary. Pastor Warren founded Saddleback Church in Lake Forest in 1980 with one other family. Today, it is one of America’s most influential churches, with approximately 20,000 people attending the weekend services. Saddleback offers more than 200 community ministries and support groups for parents, families, children, couples, prisoners, addicts, people living with HIV/AIDS, depression, MS, Parkinson’s, autism, and many others. He is the author of The Purpose Driven Life, the bestselling hardback in American history, with over 30 million copies sold worldwide. He built the Purpose Driven Network, a global alliance of pastors from 162 countries and hundreds of denominations who have been trained to be purpose driven churches. Pastor Warren and his wife Kay are passionate about global missions and what he calls “attacking the five global giants” of poverty, disease, spiritual emptiness, self-serving leadership, and illiteracy. His solution – The Peace Plan – is a massive effort to mobilize Christians around the world into an outreach effort to attack these five global giants of today by promoting reconciliation, equipping servant leaders, assisting the poor, caring for the sick, and educating the next generation.
