FAMILIES

Meet Pastor Cecilia Liversidge

Pastor for Family & Women Ministries

Hi! I’m Cecilia Liversidge, and I serve as the Pastor for Women and Family Ministries here at College View Church. I’m passionate about equipping and empowering families to be intentional in their parenting and to steward well the precious time they have with their children.

One of the greatest joys in my ministry is coming alongside families of all types and ages, sharing life, stories, a warm drink, and the little nuggets of wisdom I’ve gathered along the way. But more than anything, I’m continually blessed by the opportunity to learn from this incredible community of believers — growing together in faith, grace, and love.
I’m so glad you’re here, and I look forward to journeying with you.

For questions regarding any ministry on this page, please don't hesitate to reach me at 310.699.3521.

Family Ministries

At College View Church, we believe that faith flourishes when all generations worship, serve, and grow together. Our Family Ministries are built on the joy of being the body of Christ — where grandparents, parents, children, singles, and couples can connect in meaningful ways. We value intergenerational worship and the simple gift of enjoying life together as a community of believers.

Throughout the year, we offer events designed for the whole family — moments to laugh, learn, worship, and celebrate side by side. Whether we’re gathered in worship, sharing a meal, or enjoying a night of fun, our prayer is that these opportunities help our church feel more and more like an extended family.

 This year’s gatherings are designed to help us experience life and service together, deepening relationships with God and one another.

Family Ministries

We believe multi-generational ministry is integral to the church body so we have curated events to encourage fellowship and fun for the entire family.
