About Our Church
A Multicultural Church
Rooted in the Gospel
At MPChurch, we are a community of believers committed to sharing the good news of Jesus Christ, worshiping God, growing in His Word, and serving one another with love and grace.
Who We Are
MPChurch (Message of Peace Christian Center) is a Christ-centered, Spirit-led, and multicultural community located in the heart of the San Francisco Bay Area. Our purpose is simple yet profound: to lead people into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ through worship, discipleship, fellowship, and mission.
From our Sunday morning services to our weekday ministries, we are passionate about creating a welcoming space where people from every generation, culture, and background can come together and experience God's presence, truth, and love.
Whether you are exploring faith for the first time, returning after a season away, or seeking a new church home, MPChurch is a place where you can belong, believe, and become who God created you to be.
What We Believe
Unified in essentials. Free in non-essentials. Loving in all things.
In Essential Beliefs
We Have Unity
"There is one body and one Spirit... one Lord, one faith, one baptism." — Ephesians 4:4-6
One God in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
Salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone
The authority and inerrancy of Scripture
The return of Jesus Christ and the hope of eternal life
The call to live a Spirit-filled, obedient life
In Non-Essential Beliefs
We Have Liberty
We acknowledge that sincere Christians may have differing interpretations on secondary matters. In these areas, we extend grace, understanding that unity does not require uniformity.
"Accept him whose faith is weak, without passing judgment on disputable matters." — Romans 14:1
In All Our Beliefs
We Show Love
We believe love is the foundation of all Christian living. Our desire is to reflect Christ's compassion, humility, and truth in how we relate to one another and the world around us.
