Doors open at 9:45! We encourage you to come early to check in any children, find a seat and say hello to friends before the service begins.
The Marjorie Luke Theater prohibits food and drinks in the theatre but we will have coffee and community for you to enjoy after the service in our courtyard.

What To Expect If You're a Visitor
How To Get Involved
Visit us at the Connect Tent! We would love to get you plugged in here at Oceanhills, and invite you to join us for our upcoming Next Steps Lunch! You can also find upcoming dates on our events page.
Come As You Are
Welcome to Oceanhills! Whether you’re just beginning your faith journey or have lived life with Jesus for years, you belong here. We are a community that believes in radical grace, authentic relationships, and a Jesus-centered life. On Sundays, expect heartfelt worship, engaging teaching, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Come as you are—we’re glad you’re here!
Parking
Enter in through Cota Street and make your way back to one of the parking lots. We are able to park in rows on the basketball courts and take up the front parking spaces.
Entrance
We meet inside The Marjorie Luke Theatre at Santa Barbara Junior High each week! Our main entrance is on the right side of the junior high and easily accessed from the parking lot. You’ll walk past the connect tent and our patio welcome teams who will be happy to greet you and point you in the right direction of kids programs, and bathrooms and answer any questions you might have.
Kids
Every week we have a safe, developmentally appropriate, and Jesus-centered program for kids ages 0-4th grade. Our Okids Team is a spectacular group of multi-generational Oceanhills family members who have been background-checked and trained to provide a safe, fun and engaging space for children to discover who God is and how much God loves them.

Youth Programming
We love our youth! Each Sunday, 5th-12th graders start in the main service with all of us. From there, 5th-8th are dismissed out the back to meet with the junior high leaders and have their own programming. 9th-12th graders get to stay in the service and participate with our greater church body! However, on communion Sundays we have all youth stay in the main service.
Learn more about Youth Groups below.
Prayer
Most weeks after the sermon, we have prayer team available in the front corners to pray over people – prayers of blessing, healing, and care. You are invited to come forward and receive prayer every week!
Communion
We celebrate the sacrifice of Jesus for the forgiveness of our sins during communion on the first Sunday of every month. This spiritual practice is not for the perfect, but for those willing to admit their need for God‘s grace.
Giving
We are able to participate in God’s Kingdom work here in Santa Barbara through your generous donations. You’re able to donate at all times online here or you can bring a physical donation on Sunday to place in the wooden boxes in our theatre’s lobby.
Patio Time
We invite everyone to stay after the service to grab coffee, get info on upcoming events, and mingle on our patio.
