Welcome to Searchlight Ministries!
We are a Christian church that believes in seeking an active relationship with God. Church is our highest priority because we believe that's where people get renewed and revived. Our church services consist of two main components -
Worship and Bible Study.
If you are looking for a place where you can ask questions, have doubts, grow in your faith, and find answers, then Searchlight is the place for you.
We also have wonderful programs for kids of all ages. Our nursery is great for your infants and toddlers, Jesus Time is a fun place for kids 3-5 years old, our Kid's Church is perfect for your children in grades 1-3, and there is a special program called Club 45 for those in 4th and 5th grade.
Come visit us!
Sunday mornings at 9:30 a.m.
10418 Katella Ave. in Anaheim.

July Work Party
We Can Work it Out!
Our church property is in need of some love and care. Please join us for 4 hours on Saturday, July 26 from 8-12. We'll be prepping the secretaries office, cleaning up the play yard, moving odds and ends, and finishing misc. projects. Let's all pitch in. Many hands make light work.

September Vision and Prayer Meeting
Please mark your calendar for an evening of food, fellowship, sharing, prayer, and worship. On Sunday September 21, we'll start off with a fellowship dinner in the courtyard. Church will provide the Big Sandwich and then we'll all bring a dish to share. Next we'll move on to a sharing time when Pastor Mark will update us all on our Year of Building the Walls, part of our church's 5 Year Vision. September marks the end of Year One and we'll be moving into Year Two, A Year of Prayer where we will be covering the walls of our church with prayer of all kinds. We'll celebrate with worship and prayer after that. It will be the start of a new focus for our church. We want you to be a part of this significant event.

RECYCLE! RECYCLE! RECYCLE!!!!
Searchlight is RECYCLING!!
If you would like to save up your cans,
glass bottles and plastic bottles
during the week and bring them to
Searchlight on Sundays that would be wonderful!
Diane Gihring is heading up a RECYCLE FUND to have
some funds available to help families in need at
Searchlight and in our immediate community.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!.
Bring in your bottles and cans this Sunday!
We are starting a ministry fund at Searchlight from which we can share with those in need. Almost every day someone stops by the church asking for help in some way. They may need to use our phone, or a ride to a different city. They may be hungry and need a place to sleep for a few hours. One man came by once because his dad told him, "Find a church; they'll help you." We want to be able to help those who come seeking our help and those in our church family who could use a special gift as well. We'll be purchasing food vouchers, phone cards, gas cards, and have some emergency cash on hand.
By donating your cans and bottles to the church you can help those in need. Each aluminum can, plastic or glass bottle that has the CRV on it is worth a nickle. It adds up quickly. And you can help.
Bring your recycling on the first Sunday of every month. Diane Gihring will collect it in the back of her van and haul it away and trade it in. Together we will be able to provide for those in need. Cash donations to the emergency fund are also welcome.
This Sunday will be our first big collection. We hope you can clean out your old cans and bottle and help someone else along the way.
