about us

meet our pastor


"Hi, My name is Dan, and this is my wife Nicole and our 4 kids. Yes, they were all on purpose (I know you were wondering). I want to take a second and personally thank you for stopping by Calvary Chapel Oceanside. It is always great to see new faces from our community.

To be real, I don’t know why you are here; maybe you are just visiting, or perhaps you just moved to the area. Maybe you are hurting and in need of direction or healing. Whatever reason brings you here, please know we are here for you. I do know that checking out a new church for the first time can be awkward, but it is my prayer that within a short time, you will find the community at CCO to be a welcoming home church for you.

Our pastors and leaders are here to serve you and would love to talk with you. Also, use our Connect Card for questions, needed information and prayer. We know it’s challenging to connect in a large new community like CCO, so we’ve designed a clear pathway for you to get connected, get growing, and get on mission with us. We call this pathway STARTING POINT. When you’re ready, I want to encourage you to register and join us for our next "Step 1: Get Connected" orientation class, followed by a small gathering in my home. Take the next step! I look forward to seeing you soon."
