A reconciling congregation that welcomes people of every background, Pacific Beach United Methodist is a United Methodist church at 1561 Thomas Ave, 92109. The church holds worship services on Sundays at 10 a.m. with a blend of contemporary and traditional hymn-based music, and it streams every service online for members who cannot attend in person. What sets this congregation apart is its deep commitment to direct community service through Project Grace, a weekly program held every Wednesday at 4 p.m. that provides a free hot meal, a food pantry, and access to a UCSD student-run free clinic offering primary care, specialty consultations, social work, and pharmacy assistance for uninsured individuals. The meal serves 150 to 200 guests each week, with volunteers from local businesses and organizations helping to sponsor and prepare food since the program's early years. Neighbors on Thomas Avenue can explore the Italian-inspired menu at Enoteca Adriano just a few blocks east. The church also participates in the Interfaith Shelter Network, opening its doors for two-week stays where pre-screened guests receive dinner, breakfast, and overnight shelter while working toward stable housing. The campus is fully wheelchair accessible with gender-neutral restrooms, free parking, and a welcoming policy toward LGBTQIA+ individuals at every level of church life and leadership. Local fishmongers at The Fishery on Cass Street are among the neighborhood businesses that support the church's meal programs. The office is open Monday through Thursday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., with the building closed Fridays and Saturdays.
