About

Potters House San Diego East is a College Area congregation in San Diego meeting at 6406 University Avenue, east of the SDSU campus along the commercial strip that connects College Area to Rolando. The church belongs to the Potter's House Christian Fellowship movement, a global network of over 2,000 congregations tracing back to Pastor Wayman Mitchell's church-planting work in Prescott, Arizona, during the early 1970s. The congregation draws from the dense, multilingual residential blocks between University Avenue and El Cajon Boulevard in the 92115 ZIP, an area where The Salvation Army Kroc Center anchors the faith-based community-service infrastructure within walking distance. Core programming revolves around three pillars: evangelism, discipleship, and church planting, with the San Diego East campus functioning as one of several Potter's House satellites across the county. Outreach teams run street evangelism along the University Avenue corridor and into surrounding neighborhoods, a field-ministry model baked into the Potter's House denominational DNA since the 1970s Jesus People Movement. Inter-church collaboration extends across the College Area corridor, where congregations including New Vision Church on El Cajon Boulevard share the same residential catchment and coordinate community programming for the surrounding blocks. The Potter's House network operates a decentralized leadership structure in which each campus is pastored independently while remaining connected to the broader fellowship through annual conferences and regional pastor gatherings. The sanctuary occupies a standalone building on the north side of University Avenue with a wheelchair-accessible entrance, dedicated parking, and on-site restrooms.
