Who We Are

We exist to be a growing, committed community of Christ followers dedicated to growing in faith, living whole lives, and seeking justice for the good of our neighbors.

We welcome and affirm everyone of every race, ethnicity, age, sexual orientation, and gender identity just as Jesus did, and does, and calls for his followers to do the same.

The Missiongathering churches are communities of faith that are seeking to form life-changing hope, love, and imagination in the life and message of Jesus, the Christ, and we simply desire as many people as possible to experience that exact same freedom, healing, and renewal.

Where We Come From & Where We Are Heading

Missiongathering Christian Church was born in San Diego, California in 2001 out of the Vision and Dreams of Lead Visionary and Missiologist Rich McCullen to provide communities of a progressive Christian faith that welcomed and inspired people from all walks of life into its doors.

Missiongathering San Diego, Charlotte North Carolina, Issaquah Washington, Thornton Colorado and now Pasadena California, were born out of the desire to see church communities that truly welcomed everyone. We are communities of faith where everyone is welcomed to the Table of Grace (Communion) regardless of their personal background, financial stability, race, ethnicity, sexuality, gender, or religious affiliations. ALL ARE WELCOMED & AFFIRMED!

You are always welcome at Missiongathering. We’re saving a seat for your family and friends. Wherever you are in your faith journey, you’ll always be accepted as part of the Missiongathering church families.
