Calvary Chapel Oceanside is led by Pastor Dan Leitz and gathers for Saturday evening and Sunday worship centered on loving God, loving people and making disciples. Contemporary music accompanies practical Bible teaching. City Kids, junior-high and high-school ministries serve families, with separate Spanish-language services through CCO Espanol. Adults connect through disciple-making groups, home fellowship and men's, women's, marriage and family ministries. The church offers counseling, recovery and grief support, a food pantry and prison outreach. Parents Day Out and the Calvary Co-op support families with young children and home education.
Worship meets Saturday at 6:00 PM and Sunday at 9:00 and 11:00 AM at 3715 Oceanic Way, Oceanside, CA 92056. Arrive fifteen minutes early, or twenty minutes early for children's check-in. The welcome team can help with seating and classrooms; the parking lot includes visitor and accessible spaces. Wear what is comfortable, from jeans and sandals to your Sunday best. City Kids serves infants through fifth grade at all weekend services, while junior-high students join Sunday worship before their upstairs class. High-school students attend the main weekend service and meet for youth group on Wednesdays. Children are also welcome in the sanctuary, with a nursing-mothers room and a family-viewing room available. Contact the church about the Buddy Room, counseling or other visit arrangements. Spanish worship meets Sunday at 11:00 AM and Wednesday at 6:30 PM.

Arrive fifteen minutes early, or twenty minutes for first-time children's check-in.
