At FCC Pomona, we cultivate a variety of ministries to offer people ways to grow and serve. These ministries also give people the opportunity to get to know other people and find communities of support.
Music
Hand Bell Choir
The Hand Bell Choir plays periodically throughout the year. Whether you are an experienced bell ringer or want to try your hand at bells. It’s great fellowship and an opportunity to be creative with other people. Rehearsals are set by the group and they play on various Sundays throughout the year.
Chancel Choir
This SATB ensemble present music for worship about once a month and meets on a periodic basis. If you like singing in a group, contact the Church Office for more information (909-622-1144)!
Children’s and Youth Ministries
Summer Camps and Conferences
Children of the church from second grade onward are encouraged to attend Summer Camp. The Pacific Southwest Region of the Disciples of Christ operates the Loch Leven Camp and Retreat Center, which offers programming aimed at giving children and youth the opportunity to learn about the wider church life by developing community with other young Christians. Every year, children and youth study the Bible, learn how to share in community through meals and play, and develop their sense of Christian discipleship. For more information about summer camp offerings, check out Loch Leven’s website!
Child Development Center
For over 40 years, First Christian Church Pomona Child Development Center has been providing high quality developmental child care for our community. We focus on helping your child develop the necessary emotional, social, intellectual, and physical skills to succeed in grade school and beyond. It is important to us to provide a loving, encouraging and safe environment. We maintain a staff that includes teachers who are fully bilingual: English/Spanish.
