How it all started...

Calvary Chapel El Monte actually started when Pastor Manny went witnessing on the streets of the city. When he was young, he grew up in El Monte, but in the sixth grade his father was shot and wounded in a drive-by shooting. Manny was then taken out of the city to live with his uncle and aunt. At the age of 22 Manny experienced a radical salvation and transformation at Calvary Chapel West Covina (now Calvary Chapel Golden Springs), under Pastor Raul Ries. As Manny served the Lord for the next 13 years, El Monte began to stir in his heart. In 2002 the work began, and it’s been absolutely amazing to see what God has done in so many lives over the years.

Calvary Chapel El Monte is a non-denominational Christian church affiliated with thousands of other Calvary Chapels all around the world. If you would like more information on Calvary Chapel as a whole, visit the Calvary Chapel Association website.

Come check it out! You’ll find Calvary Chapel El Monte to be a church that is rooted in the Word and has a heart to worship. We long to grow in our knowledge of the Lord and make Him known to the world. God is graciously doing an amazing work in building His church and we are thoroughly blessed and humbled to be a part of it! (Psalm 127:1; Matthew 16:18)
