Fairfax Community Church - Fairfax, California

Michael L.

As a life-long spiritual seeker and religious skeptic, I'm surprised by how much I appreciate this church. Yes, they're Christians (a tough one to pull off in Fairfax). At the same time, they're affiliated with the United Church of Christ denomination (arguably the most liberal religious Christians along the spectrum). The services are very welcoming and it shows in the way the pastor engages in dialogue after her sermon (a very rare thing to find in church), not to mention referring to Jesus as that "Middle Eastern Mystic".

Also, I've never known a pastor who teaches aerial. It's really cool to end a service with a nine-year-old swinging on a trapeze to captivating music! The sanctuary space is also stunningly beautiful with incredible paintings throughout. No wonder the Ecstatic Dance group uses it on Friday nights!

I think a lot of people in Marin could benefit from attending this church. What I appreciate most is the balance between contemplative practices and fun, engaging services. They get humility and forgiveness in way I wish other churches and traditions did - a good reason to keep coming back.

I have visited the Fairfax Community Church for ecstatic dance events when I visit Marin. The space is great for dancing and the vibe has always been laid back and playful. This is not your standard church.

These guys do it all.

Because of Catherine, their lovely pastor, I can honestly say that there is no barrier to what is possible with this Church.

She offers aerial silks for sweet mothers and daughters, dances on fridays and food pantry for just about everyone.
Of course there are masses and services too, it's just a whole new way of celebrating Christianity.

I adore this woman. Her Church is one of a kind!!!

I'm not sure if they are actually open. Received an email from whoever was conducting the service last week, replied and asked a question, No Answer. Today on my way to St. Rita Catholic Church I'll drive by and see if FCC is open. A couple of people I'd like to say hello to.. maybe I will catch them outside if FCC is functioning.
