Will not be returning and bringing my kids to a place like this that doesn't follow the Sunnah of the prophet pbuh or even offer hospitality to guests.

MCC is only around 15 minutes away and is a much better atmosphere and overall feels much more Islamic.

I've only been to one other mosque briefly and never in San Diego so this was a very new experience for me. Everyone we met was friendly and welcoming. The food was pretty good especially for a $7/ticket. I am sure they subsidize and sponsor the meals as the food was hefty. If they have more talks and programming I am open to coming back for events.

I love this place! I didn't think I'd ever find a religious community that fit my eclectic mindset…read more Having been raised Catholic, but never really fitting in there, I didn't think I'd ever fit in anywhere. It turns out UUs have spiritual beliefs of every stripe, from Judeo-Christian to pagan to humanist to Buddhist. It's a non-dogmatic religion, meaning it's not about adherence to a belief. My experience with it is that it's much more about being part of a community of caring people. Palomar UU is an incredibly vibrant place--quite an oasis of liberal religion here in North County. It's a place that accepts all people, regardless of their spiritual beliefs (or lack thereof). Also, don't let the term "liberal religion" fool you--we have Republicans in our congregation, too, although the majority of the members are probably on the left side of the political spectrum. My husband and I started going about a year ago, and a big part of the reason it worked so well for us is that it is also super kid-friendly (we have a six-year-old). There are lots of kids of all ages, and a wonderful nursery program for little ones, as well as "Sunday school" classes for kids up through high school. You won't find indoctrination in our Sunday school, though--it's all about learning about different beliefs and celebrating our kids' uniqueness. The Reverend Doctor Beth Johnson is the minister, and she is a gem. Reverend Beth gives thoughtful, inspiring sermons. She's deeply committed to the community at Palomar, in addition to being committed to the broader community. Not only does she challenge the congregation to be active in social justice (take that, Glenn Beck!), but she walks the walk herself. She's been at immigration rallies, health care town halls, and marriage equality events. In UU speak, we call it "standing on the side of love," meaning we try to take action from a place of joy and compassion, rather than from one of aggression and anger. The Palomar UU community is notable for its friendliness and open doors. One visiting minister said "you guys just love to be together," and it's true. In addition to Sunday services (at 9:30 a.m. and 11:00 every Sunday), there are all sorts of social gatherings--potlucks, campouts, holiday festivities. It's an active, lively, many-colored sort of place, and I feel so lucky to have found it.

Wow. Need a great church home?!? Jesus being my only rock…read moresince the age of seven I have been around a lot of churches and church folk, cut to the chase UMV has all I could ask for in a Congregation!! Somehow this lovely Parrish has avoided a fair amount of religious quarreling including the awful church split (King of Kings my former, what a heartbreak), leaving out God's creation in LBGTQI+ (boo Saddleback), being their lovely selves while delivering the work of Christ in our world today. Methodists have lots of women all the way up the organizational chain which feels very welcoming in general! They focus on their only 10:00 service which seems a good move as other churches struggle with which service is contemporary, formal and so on changing around sometimes to the confusion of folks trying to onboard. Conversely, UM of V mixes up the music nicely. My greeter for my 1st service Scott has a genuine heart for his church and community in general and was a great person to meet. Long established members Chico and Martha had me sit with them (just the nicest folks).... come as you are or dress up, it's all good in the United Methodist Church of Vista, plenty of parking but I'm blessed to be able to easily walk there. There's something for everyone for hearts to serve! Well established groups to connect with, make new friends and support a worthy pillar in our TriCity area. Want to make a HUGE difference for UM of V and financially you're doing well? How this congregation functions nicely on the low numbers I see in the budget amazes me but that is the partnership Christians at our fundamental selves believe in, "don't judge, just help and do with my hands what I can and Our mighty Sovereign will bless our efforts", and GOD DOES! Send a donation, it is a tax write off y'know. Better give to your community first eh? Blessings and peace out, see you there~
