The negative poster below is exagerating and lying. On Sunday mornings the children attend the Sunday School right after the childrens service at the 10am service, then they come back into the church with their parents at the end of the service. At around 11:30 we have fellowship and the kids go out and play on the play ground supervised. We even announce this periodically in the service. Last weekend we had a retirement party for the Pastor, there was a HotDog vendor machine out there for the kids and a big catered lunch inside. Perhaps this neighbor is confusing an event with everyday activity. As for 14 hours a day, that's ridiculous, there are bible study groups, meetings during the week, preschool is out. I would suggest that when you rent or buy a house in a CITY that you factor in the noise levels of everything else you're crammed around. This is CA where is there never any traffic (rolling my eyes). Who was there first? The preschool and church or you? Move to the country if you don't like the city. As for the comments about the Pastor being rude, that's not true, he's the most down to earth, kind, friendly and REAL person you'll ever meet. Perhaps you are bit too emotional and don't like people to tell you the truth. And because someone disagrees with you that doesn't mean they are rude.

Pros: Friendly people and pastor, a great place to bring the family, everyone is welcomed with open arms and big smiles

Cons: ABSOLUTLEY NONE

I am shocked and surprised at the previous review, most of which is not only untrue but impossible. The church adjoins a preschool for 2-5 year olds (my daughter attends). There is not noise 14 hours a day since the school opens at 7am & closes at 6pm. If you live near a preschool, children play. NO ONE is EVER unsupervised either. The children do not use the playgrounds during the weekends. On Sundays during church service they are inside attending "little church." The only exception is Easter when there is an Easter egg hunt & Graduation the other day which was noisy. Lighten up, you were a kid & ran around in preschool too. What do you expect? Anyway, I've never encountered such nice people as within this group!

Pros: Wonderful People

Cons: None

This "church"/daycare is a continual nusance to our Sherman Oaks community. Despite a mediation between tenants living near this church and the Pastor of the church, who is the most inflexible religious figure I have ever met, screaming children are still constantly allowed on the playground, unsupervised well past 7pm daily. The Pastor's response is "Too bad - move if it's too noisy". The weekends do not guarantee peace either as the children use the playground while parents are in church. When I went to church (and I still do with my daughter) I never told her to go and play on the playground while everyone else was in church. This community has and continues to suffer the constant noise and we are shunned aside. So much for thinking living next door to a chuch would be "peaceful". Never move near this church, you will regret it.

Pros: None

Cons: Screaming children 14 hours a day, 7 days a week
