Bay Area Christian Church
We are a non-denominational Christian community in the San Francisco Bay Area devoted to knowing God and making him known. Whether you’re exploring faith, feeling disconnected, or looking for a way to make a difference, BACC is a place where you can build meaningful friendships, grow spiritually, and experience God in a personal way.
We gather at nine campuses and in over 100 neighborhood-based small groups, working together to follow Jesus’s example of love and service. Through programs for families with special needs, local partnerships, and member-led outreach, we aim to be a force for good in our community and beyond.

We are overwhelmed by the generosity shown at all nine campuses this past Sunday for our annual Toy Drive! Your gifts and compassion are directly impacting thousands of children across the Bay Area and Central Valley this holiday season.
We are proud to have supported an incredible list of partners this year: A Better Way in Pleasant Hill; the Bill Wilson Center and Sunnyvale Community Services in Sunnyvale; Horizons Unlimited SF and Real Options for City Kids (ROCK) in San Francisco; Parents Helping Parents and Pacific Clinics in Palo Alto; Rebekah House in San Jose; the Oak Cultural Center, Oakland Police Department, and FESCO Family Shelter in San Leandro; and the Office of Violence Prevention (OVP) in Stockton (including a fantastic donation of over 60 Chromebooks!) through our Dublin campus.
Thank you for making this the best Toy Drive yet!

The holiday atmosphere was simply delightful at our Palo Alto campus this past Sunday! The air was instantly filled with Christmas cheer as our carolers welcomed every guest with song upon entering the building. Families made special memories by taking photos with Mr. and Mrs. Claus, capturing the joy of the season.
Beyond the fun—which included an exciting Ugly Christmas Sweater Contest—the heart of our service was giving back: we were proud to partner with Parents Helping Parents and Pacific Clinics to ensure children in our community receive gifts this year. It was a beautiful day of connection, generosity, and holiday joy.

The spirit of imagination and connection was alive at our San Jose campus this past Sunday! Friends and families were welcomed by a cozy Hot Cocoa Imagination Station, inviting everyone to linger, connect, and warm up together on a chilly morning. We also took a moment to slow down at the Card Making Imagination Station, where guests created heartfelt cards for loved ones.
The service itself was incredibly inspiring, with powerful sharing and an engaging lesson. Amidst the joy, our teens led the charge at the Toy Drive Imagination Station, collecting toys and gift cards for the Rebekah House organization to help children in need in south San Jose.

The Christmas spirit was soaring at our San Francisco campus this Sunday! We were so inspired to honor local heroes with our “Imagination Awards.” We celebrated those involved in our Spiritual Resource Ministry which creates an inclusive, caring space for families with special needs to feel at home, and acknowledged those who've helped rally the community to support unhoused neighbors through essential care packages and drives.
The generosity didn't stop there: we collected hundreds of toys and gift cards for Horizons Unlimited SF and ROCK to bring joy to children this season. With our choir singing loud for all to hear, a special visit from Santa and Mrs. Claus, and lots of holiday desserts, we made sure everyone felt welcomed and cared for during this special time.

Generosity and hope defined our Sunnyvale morning service on Sunday! We were honored to partner with the Bill Wilson Center for our annual Toy Drive, and their Chief Community Resource Officer and her husband were moved to tears by the generous donations at our Toy Drive for children in the foster care program. We are also excited that this connection led to a meeting with our Lo Debar project to potentially expand our outreach to the unhoused in Santa Clara County! Beyond the giving, the service featured a beautiful, inclusive kids' choir and inspiring, honest sharing that sparked meaningful conversations afterward. Thanks to all who came, served, and donated. Happy holidays, and we are looking forward to a great 2026!

What a magical Sunday at our Pleasant Hill Holiday Celebration Service! ✨ The day was overflowing with joy, community, and incredible impact.
From the moment you stepped into the service, you were transported straight into "Santa’s Workshop" with hand-made giant candy canes and nutcrackers! Inside, our choir full of 35 amazing kids filled the room with song—bringing parents and grandparents to witness the joy!
The fun continued when Santa Claus himself stopped by "Candy Cane Lane" for family photos and a delicious cookie and cocoa bar that kept everyone coming back for more customizable hot cocoa and holiday treats.
But the real heart of the day was our annual Toy Drive partnership with "A Better Way." We were honored to have Chief Program Officer Warner Graham join us to celebrate their 15+ year partnership with BACC.
Thank you, Pleasant Hill, for showing up and making a difference! ❤️

Our Sunnyvale 1 PM service was full of warmth and joy this past Sunday! Guests were welcomed by a festive choir of carolers and the delight of winter snowfall. The lesson on Pure Imagination inspired us all, and everyone stuck around after for hot chocolate and cookies! The children especially loved visiting with Santa, then playing in the snow machine outside. We are excited to start a meaningful new partnership with Sunnyvale Community Services through our Toy Drive, strengthening our commitment to doing good in the neighborhood. It was a wonderful way to celebrate the holiday spirit together!

It was a packed house at the Holiday Celebration Service at our San Leandro campus this weekend! Hundreds of toys and gift cards were donated to the Oak Center Cultural Center, Oakland Police Department, and the FESCO Family Shelter. After an inspiring worship service full of Christmas music, we had a blast giving away prizes at our ugly sweater contest and taking photos with Santa.
