Shepherd’s Grove is a dynamic local church with a compelling global mission. We’re dedicated to creating happy and whole students of Jesus Christ—regardless of age, culture, or spiritual background. Shepherd’s Grove is renown as the epicenter of The Hour of Power ministry, which continues to lead this thriving legacy ministry to impact lives worldwide.
This intergenerational congregation meets weekly in its new Irvine, CA venue, a location that draws in local neighbors and guests from around the globe that God has impacted through its ministries. While Shepherd’s Grove does broadcast The Hour of Power live each Sunday, the excellent worship and solid biblical teaching isn’t just for all the world, it’s for all who come through the doors of this local church and call it home.
