The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints - Orcutt Hills Ward, Santa Maria

About this church

Santa Maria has two meetinghouses in the directory, and the one at 1219 Oak Knoll Rd is about five miles from its nearest counterpart, also in the city. Two wards share the building on Sundays: Orcutt Hills Ward at 9 a.m. and Oak Knoll at 11:30 a.m., keeping it open from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., with 11 a.m. as the busiest hour. Wheelchair-accessible entry, parking, restrooms and seating are all provided. As is typical for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the Orcutt Hills Ward draws its members from the surrounding neighborhood.

Either service runs about an hour, made up of hymns, prayers, the sacrament of bread and water, and talks from congregation members, followed by a second hour of classes with Primary offered for children. Attendance is free and no collection plate is ever passed. Congregations here are organized by neighborhood, which is why two of them share this building at different times. Since local leaders periodically adjust these start times, it's worth a quick call before showing up for a first visit.
