About this church
Little Brown Church offers Sunday worship at 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. on Coldwater Canyon in Studio City. The morning service uses a folk blend of classic hymns and contemporary favorites; evening worship features guest musicians and singers. Both gatherings last about an hour, combine contemporary and traditional music, and celebrate Communion every Sunday. The table is open to all, consistent with the congregation's Disciples of Christ heritage. Coffee and refreshments encourage people to linger afterward. The church hosts weddings, picnics, open-mic nights, barbecues, and a Bless the Pets gathering.
Little Brown Church and Church of the Valley are one congregation in two locations, formed when the Studio City church merged with Central Christian Church of Van Nuys in 1989. The Little Brown chapel dates to 1939 and was envisioned as an always-open urban refuge for spiritual solace. Members emphasize freedom of belief guided by the Bible, Holy Spirit, study, and prayer; cooperation in good works; and leadership by both ordained and lay people. A third Sunday service meets at the Van Nuys campus at 10:30 a.m. with choir, praise band, Sunday School, and a staffed nursery. Children and youth there also participate in camp, retreats, service, arts, Christmas productions, and supportive overnight events. The Little Brown material leaves dress, parking, mobility and hearing accommodations, nursery ages and check-in, screening, streaming, and any onsite children's program at the Studio City services unspecified.
