COME WORSHIP WITH US!
WORSHIP SERVICE
Each Sunday, Pioneer Ocean View UCC gathers as an intergenerational faith community, welcoming all to worship in person and on Zoom. Our service is rooted in Christian tradition, with Scripture-based sermons that connect to everyday life. Worship also regularly includes congregational singing, prayer, a Moment for All Ages, and special music by our choir or soloists. Whether you're familiar with church traditions or exploring faith for the first time, you'll find a welcoming and inclusive space to worship with us.
JOIN US IN PERSON OR ON ZOOM!
Join us for worship every Sunday at 10:00 AM, followed by a time of fellowship over lunch! Attend in person at our church or join us on Zoom from wherever you are. Click below to access the service online.

AFTER WORSHIP SERVICE
Join us for our Fellowship Luncheon!
At Pioneer Ocean View UCC, our worship doesn’t end with the final blessing—it continues as we gather around the table in fellowship and community. We believe that sharing a meal is a sacred act, a reflection of God’s abundant love and our commitment to extending an extravagant welcome to all. Just as families pray and break bread together, we invite everyone to join us after worship for a meal prepared by our generous volunteers. It’s a time to deepen connections, welcome new faces, and continue the spirit of worship through conversation, laughter, and shared nourishment.
Stay, be fed, and be part of this beautiful continuation of our service.
MUSIC
Choral and instrumental music has an important place at Pioneer Ocean View UCC. Our choir prepares anthems for worship services, as well as for seasonal events. We also have guest musicians who share their gifts with us in worship from time to time.
COMMUNION
Just as Jesus broke bread with His Disciples, we honor this tradition and break bread with one another during the first Sunday of every month.
CHILDREN
Children are welcome here! At POVUCC, we truly believe that we are "Better Together". For this reason, children join us in the Sanctuary for our worship, with their own unique "Prayground" area for learning, listening, and worshipping in our beautiful sanctuary, alongside the adults and teens.
A room for infants and their parents is available just behind the Sanctuary for nursing, diaper changes and toddler time.
ACCESSIBILITY
Devices to amplify sound are available for thos needing assistance with hearing. Our restrooms are ADA compliant and our chancel is wheelchair-accessible.
SAMPLE SERMONS
It is our vision here at Pioneer Ocean View UCC to ignite hearts everywhere with God’s love…. EVERYWHERE!
So no matter where you are on God’s beautiful planet — right here in sunny San Diego or far, far away — we invite you to listen to a past sermon. We hope you’ll find inspiration and comfort in these messages. Please join us on Sundays at 10 am to hear more!
