THE CHURCH HAS LEFT THE BUILDING!
Once again, North Coast Church is canceling all weekend services on all campuses on April 29-30, 2017 so we can unleash God’s love into our community in BIG and tangible ways. North Coast Church’s 2017 Weekend of Service is expected to be the largest yet, impacting nearly every corner of North County.
We welcome the opportunity to work with representatives from all types of media outlets.
