About

Anchor City Church is a Third Culture, multigenerational, inclusive church called to bless and serve San Diego and the world.

We believe diversity reflects the joy and creativity of Jesus and is a beautiful, credible witness to our divided, broken world (Revelation 7:9-10).

Weekly online gatherings for worship & prayer

During this season of sheltering-in-place, we are gathering online via Zoom on Sundays at 10:00 am for worship and Thursdays at 8:00 pm for prayer. Various Home Groups meet throughout the week as well in friendship & prayer.

Dreaming together for our city

Our world needs more dreamers. We’re on a journey of discovering and living out God’s dreams for our lives as individuals, families, and as a church community. We invite you to join us in this adventure of following Jesus!

God’s global mission of redemption

God is at work to restore all that sin has broken — and God invites us to participate! We partner with nonprofit organizations and ministries around the world for hope, healing, and restoration in Jesus’ name.

From “neither/nor” to “both/and”

Friends, after this long year of pandemic, racial injustice, and everything else, it's normal to feel worn out, sorrowful, and even angry. So how do we bounce back? What's our source of resilience? We began our Eastertide series on Sabbath this week. When Jesus defeated sin and death, it wasn't a dramatic slow-motion walkaway from explosions underscored by a dramatic soundtrack. Instead, Jesus meets us in quiet restoration. In the midst of lament, loss, and seemingly-endless pandemic, Jesus finds us — and through Christ's resurrection, we find the love, joy, and strength not only to persevere, but to hope again for our future. Friends, may you continue to shine faithfully as witnesses of Christ! We will celebrate Jesus' resurrection tomorrow, 4 April at 1:00 pm in-person, outdoors, and socially-distanced on the front lawn of Mount Soledad Presbyterian Church. For those who can't join us in-person, please check your email for the Zoom link or contact us at info@anchorcity.org We will gather tonight at 7:00 pm via Zoom to observe Good Friday. We will spend some time contemplating the cross, grief, and lament and Jesus' act of sacrifice and love on our behalf. We'll have a brief time for the children as well, right at the start. Please check your email for the link or email info@anchorcity.org "Maundy Thursday begins the Three Days (or Triduum), remembering the new commandment that Christ gave us in word and deed as he taught us how to love one another, washing our feet as a servant. We also celebrate the Lord’s Supper, remembering the meal Christ shared with his disciples before his death. The name is taken from the first words sung at the ceremony of the washing of the feet, “I give you a new commandment” (John 13:34); also from the commandment of Christ that we should imitate his loving humility in the washing of the feet (John 13:14-17). The term mandatum (maundy), therefore, was applied to the rite of the footwashing on this day." — Presbyterian Mission Agency During this tumultuous time of anti-Asian racism, hatred, and violence, we are proud to raise our voice for the God-given dignity, beauty, creativity, and joy of our diverse AAPI communities. On Tuesday, we came together for an interfaith prayer vigil for AAPI solidarity. In the midst of racism, misogyny, and violence against Asian Americans, we came together in our rage, sorrow, fear, determination, and resolve to affirm our God-given dignity and worth, share our stories, and stand together with a diverse array of people for a better future.
