Sunrise at the Mt Baldy Cross is an amazing experience! An easy 100-yard trail that anyone not requiring physical walking assistance device should be able to make. Turn North on Glendora Ridge Road; the trail starts about a 1/2 mile up the road. Seating is a mix of split logs, blankets and beach chairs. Dogs on a leash are welcome. Limited parking at the site is available. It is a one mile walk from the church. The sun does rise over the southern mountains around 8 AM, so it's best to dress in layers.
Christmas Eve Service
Christmas Eve Schedule
- Our evening will open with a selection of 'Season' favorites like "White Christmas" and "It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas." This will allow everyone to just enjoy some good cheer and remember that this season is a time to share the "Joy of the Lord."
- Christmas songs of faith such as "O Holy Night" and the Christmas version of Hallelujah will be our transition to a musical Nativity.
- Our Nativity play will be followed by more Christmas songs of faith, our Christmas Eve message and Communion.
- After a break for our Potluck, those who want to spend some family time together will continue to share in the singing of Christmas favorites before lighting candles nd proceeding from the church to sing "Silent Night" as a witness to His love.
Family Friendly Plus!
Here at Mt Baldy Village Church, we provide space for your entire family- including your dogs! We only ask that they be on a leash and of a temperament that won't create stress for our children.
A balcony and rooms upstairs provide great space for toddlers too.
Children that arrive and would like to participate in the Nativity Play will be gleefully costumed and given simple parts (non-verbal) to enjoy this low stress creativity.
Meet Me At The Cross; A Special summer series

How to Dress and What to Bring
- The sun will rise above the Southern mountain between 7:30 and 8:00 AM (time changes yearly). It will be chilly until the sun rises, so please dress in layers.
- We usually have between 80 and 100 people at this service, so unless you're early you may want to bring a blanket to sit on or beach chairs.
- Sunglasses are a must, as the Mt Baldy Cross is at the Southern end of the opening.
- If you love your dog, he or she is welcome, but please for the safety of others have your dog on a leash.
- The trail is easy, but is not accessible by walker or wheelchair. Closed toe shoes are recommended.
Easter Egg Hunt
Yes, this is not a Christ centered activity, but is a family and child friendly activity. We will have an Easter Egg Hunt after the service. If you would like to donate eggs for the hunt before the service, please bring them by the church. If our pastor is not at the church, please leave your gift by the back door or patio door and a phone message if possible.
