Welcome to RB Community Church

Founded as the first church in the community plan for Rancho Bernardo, our church has served the surrounding Poway, Escondido, 4S, Penasquitos and north San Diego neighborhoods for over 50 years. We are a Presbyterian church in the PCUSA family of churches.

Put simply, our church exists “For the glory of God alone.” The Latin, “Soli Deo gloria,” claimed by the church leaders as a centering belief, focuses us on seeking to reveal the true nature of God and is our starting point for our purpose and our beliefs.

We’re a church that relies on the energy of God to make our way into what’s next. This is an artisan church where creatives of all sorts find the chance to express themselves. Painters, poets, writers, dancers, singers, musicians, photographers, sculptors, sound technicians, graphic designers… spiritual explorers of all sorts seek to understand Jesus Christ and to make expression of his grace, peace and hope to the world. It’s a fun place to be with God.

If you want to “get your hands dirty” by getting involved in actively helping others, this is where you can find multiple ways to do that, and also the reason why that’s important and what it does to our souls. You’ll find an expanded family here. You’ll also find infants to the aged with whom you can come alongside and learn and grow.
