Whale Watching Oceanside Harbor
Seeing whales in the wild is one of the most awesome experiences anybody can have. Grey whales travel more than 12,000 miles roundtrip from Alaska to Baja, Mexico. Come with us to see this amazing feat of nature! Highlights of the two-hour whale watching cruise:
- Helgren’s expects a very high chance of seeing whales, dolphins, and other marine mammals
- Spacious, comfortable seating and viewing on any of our three boats
- A knowledgeable captain and first mate who give you information about the incredible animals we see
- Each trip is fully narrated by experienced whale watch captains, and upon request, each passenger receives an official Whale Watch Sea Life Certificate as a souvenir of their viewing experience.
- Come out on the ocean with us and see these massive yet incredibly gentle animals for yourself!
WHEN: Saturday February 15, 11am-2pm (be there by 10:00am)
WHERE: 1395 1/2 N. Harbor Dr., Oceanside, CA, look for Blue and White Bldg.
COST: $25. per person- includes a tip.
You are on your own for food & transportation.
Senior Life Groups
The Senior Life Groups are the most social Life Groups at North Coast Church! These married and single seniors gather weekly to study God’s Word and develop meaningful friendships. The groups meet in the morning. During the breaks between Life Group quarters, you will often find these social folks gathering for fellowship. Check out our Senior Life Group page if you want to join a group of people who are young-at-heart, fun-loving, caring, and interested in following Jesus.
Groups meet for three quarters during the year: Fall (September- December), Winter (January-March) and Spring (April-June).
Senior Luncheons
Our Senior Ministry is a ministry for those who are often described as the “Greatest Generation” – (1925-1945) – who went through the Great Depression & built United States industries in the years following World War II.
The last Friday of the month we have a luncheon from 10:45am to 1:00pm complete with great entertainment, inspiring speakers, catered food and lots of laughs!
Location: Vista Campus
Cost: $8 donation per person
Contact our hotline at (760) 330-9107 to reserve your seat.
Reservations are required.

Watercolor Class
Art is a beautiful way to express yourself. It is both fun and challenging and you may discover a God-given talent you didn’t know you had! Vanessa Gerardi, watercolorist, will show you how. Beginners and experienced painters are welcome. No drawing skills are necessary.
Please email Cathy Dicato to receive a supply list.
When: Thursdays, 9:30 am ~ noon
Cost : $10 includes instruction; supplies should be purchased before the first class.

Knit / Crochet Club
Do you love to knit or crochet? We have a group of all ages and abilities that come together to make scarves, hats & lap blankets for those in need. Everyone is welcome from experts to beginners.
Meets the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays at 10 AM in the K-1 room on the Vista Campus.
Singing Seniors
Singing Seniors ministers to the residents of nursing homes in the local area. Teams of singers are sent out each Wednesday morning to sing to the residents. We sing for one hour and then we gather for lunch. It is a rewarding way to brighten the days of others while you are having fun, meeting new friends and growing spiritually in the Lord.
All ages are welcome so you don’t have to be a senior to join us.
