Meet Our Pastor
Erin Kerr is the Lead Pastor at Mariners Mission Viejo. He has served as a church planter, and pastored in large, small and start up churches for 20 years. He is passionate about helping people find and follow Jesus, and see them thrive in their God-given purpose. Erin presently lives in Mission Viejo with his beautiful wife Joy and three daughters, Autumn, Eden, and Phoebe. When he isn’t enjoying family time, he’s consuming too much coffee, trying to fit in a CrossFit workout of the day, and praying a little too hard for his Dallas Cowboys to rise out of mediocrity.

Weekend Service
Our weekend services are the primary way we gather as a church body. These encounters are at the heart of who we are and a terrific way to start integrating into Mariners life. Our meetings last an hour and include worship, a message from the Bible, prayer, and an opportunity to respond to God’s Spirit. Stay following the service to connect with our church family and get plugged in to one of our many community groups.

For Kids
If you’re visiting for the first time, utilize the Family Drop off inside of the Plaza Level parking. There will be a Mariners Kids sign and a welcoming team to guide you to our Kids Space located inside of the Ministry Center on the Plaza Level.
Special Needs
We would be honored to accommodate your child with special needs. We require all new and returning families to fill out the intake form before the first visit. Once complete, our team will reach out to schedule an intake call to discuss next steps. This program is available at 8:30 & 11:30a.
