MAIN BUILDING Our campus consists of two buildings. The first is our original 1920s church, maintained in its evocative Mission Revival style, including a bell tower with fully functional church bell.The building holds our sanctuary, office, reception hall, classrooms and other meeting spaces. |
|
CRAFTSMAN COTTAGE The fully-restored 1914 Craftsman-style bungalow next door to the main building, connected by lovely courtyard and arbor spaces, provides additional classrooms and meeting areas. |

THE SANCTUARY To those hosting a large gathering we offer our charming Mission Revival sanctuary, designed in the 1920s by noted Santa Monica architect, John Byers. It features a high vaulted ceiling, original exposed beamwork, old oak floors and scrupulously-inclusive iconography. The sanctuary can hold up to 160 of your guests in a simultaneously intimate and ample setting, and a Steinway grand piano is available for your use. |
|
THE COURTYARD Outside the sanctuary you’ll find terraced courtyards on two sides, with classic Saltillo tiles to the east and cobblestone-pattern pavers bridging northward into our fully-enclosed outdoor space. With some areas tree-shaded, others canopied, and still others open-air, our exterior campus forms a series of outdoor rooms for break-out space, or for al fresco dining, or for your outdoor reception. |

 |
Finally, tucked behind our historic, fully-renovated 1914 Craftsman Bungalow you’ll find a Zen-garden-themed children’s play area, with available nursery staff to help keep the little ones occupied while you host your event. |
|
RECEPTION HALL Our completely-refurbished 1,626 square foot reception hall is the perfect location to entertain your guests, with new flooring, brand new sofas and café tables, fully-remodeled and pristine restrooms, and an expansive artwork display system along the full length of the eastern wall.

And when our perfect beach-town weather calls you to bring the outside in, simply pull aside the receding glass wall and open your reception outward onto the enclosed, Wisteria-lined courtyard. |
| Finally, our newly-updated kitchen (with new commercial-grade appliances) is available to help you or your caterer make this an event to remember. |

ADDITIONAL MEETING SPACE Whether it’s just one small meeting that you’re hosting, or whether it’s a large seminar with multiple break-out groups, we can accommodate you in our six meeting/classrooms. Varying in space from 200 square feet up to almost 500 square feet in size, all meeting rooms are fully-renovated, and many feature brand-new, plush sectional sofas. |
