Welcome Today!

Hello, I am Shane West. My family is a ministry team for those needing a second (or third and forth) chance. We are knowingly imperfect and seek out those who need to experience God in the middle of their insufficient lives.

Today is the day we have decided to move forward and find God in the midst of our relationships, jobs, families, and dreams. As we seek the Lord we will find Him, and in doing so we discover His purpose and the place of blessing that can only be found in the middle of His will.

Who We Are...

I am the Connections Pastor, and Rancho Campus Pastor of Red Chapel, a church that truly makes a difference in our community. One that makes God proud and is filled with authentic people — people who passionately follow the biblical model of what the Church should be and what Christ’s followers are to become. We are non denominational, and all about building people based on the promises of what God has declared over their lives today, not their past.

Today is the day that Christ can change your life and turn your world around. We believe that God is limitless in what He can do and His plans for our lives and His church are great. For these reasons we believe for significant favor and blessing in our lives. We are called to the region of Southern California and are committed to reach our world for Christ.
