Almaden Hills United Methodist Church

About this church

The congregation listed as Almaden Hills United Methodist Church now worships as Growing Hope United Methodist Church, formed from the combined Almaden Hills and Cambrian Park congregations. Its weekly service begins Sundays at 10:00 a.m. in the Almaden Hills sanctuary at 1200 Blossom Hill Road in San Jose and streams live on YouTube. Worship generally lasts 60 to 75 minutes, blending hymns, choir or special music, traditional and contemporary selections, and a Scripture-inspired sermon.

Growing Hope identifies as a United Methodist Reconciling Congregation and explicitly welcomes people across races, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, family relationships, abilities, and stages of faith. Dress is generally casual, giving is voluntary, and fellowship with refreshments follows worship. Preschool- and elementary-age children remain with their families for roughly the first fifteen minutes, then may leave for stories, crafts, games, and music; the joint youth ministry serves grades six through twelve with partner congregations. The church’s local work includes school-supply backpacks, meals for Casitas de Esperanza residents, and lunch bags distributed through Front Door Communities. The Cambrian Park campus hosts education and family activities but no regular worship, so first-time visitors should use the Blossom Hill Road campus.
