At The Cross Oceanside was birthed in January, of 2014, with no affiliation to any denomination. At the cross quickly became known as the church that truly walked by faith and trusting God on the vision and purpose He laid before His church. With no man-made religion, legalistic denominational attachment, the church was built on biblical principles and God’s purpose for His church since the start of church history. At The Cross relied solely on following the journey God had for His church. From the beginning, God has been faithful to His church.

At The Cross had its first-ever church service at Oceanside High School on Sunday February 2, 2014. This in itself was a miracle. During that time churches were not permitted to hold any services or rent space on school property. But God always makes a way… Pastor Adam, an Alumni of Oceanside High school, class of 1980, was involved in sports during his school years, which God used to give Pastor Adam favor when searching for a place of worship.

At The Cross church services held at Oceanside High

At The Cross held church services for two years at Oceanside High school and became a blessing to the community. Building relationships with the Police department, city officials, mayor, and serving the Oceanside community. Summer of 2014, we began our outreach, which we liked to call our Summer nights at the beach on Thursday nights! Along with our church family, we would BBQ, worship, and preach to reach and evangelize the lost and the hurting. Many precious souls were touched by the loving hand of God.

During this time God opened the door for At the cross to build a relationship with Teen challenge. Pastor Paul and his wife Melissa were alumnus of Teen Challenge Bible college, which brought the connection to get homeless and many into this drug rehabilitation. Pastor Adam quickly became great friends with Herlindo, who is the Teen challenge Director of the San Diego Headquarters. And so it began, Pastor Adam would take many men who were ready and willing to start a new life with God to Teen challenge…

January of 2016, At The Cross found their church home building located at 2112 South El Camino Real Oceanside, CA 92054. This home gave At The cross the opportunity to reach more people and At The Cross family grew!

AT THE CROSS BECAME A PLACE WHERE CONNECTIONS WERE MADE AND CHURCH BECAME FAMILY
