About Emanuelu Samoan Free Methodist Church

Emanuelu Samoan Free Methodist Church is a dynamic church located in San Lorenzo, CA. It was established by the late Reverend Elder Sa'a Faifili and Tumutumu Gaoteote that transitioned from the United Methodist Church in 1997. It is now under the supervision of Pastor Elder George Gaoteote and its church leaders through a board of directors. Our beliefs are based on the Bible and centered on Jesus Christ. Our mission is very simple: to lead people to honor and glorify Jesus Christ. That means we’re not about a building or some complicated religious system, but about helping people from all backgrounds discover the joy that comes from knowing and serving Jesus Christ.

God made a promise in the Bible that if we seek after Him, we’ll find Him. You are a valued part of God’s creation and His deep desire is to be in a relationship with you. So come and join us as we pursue God together!
