I have been going to the Saratoga site for three years since its inception. Menlo Saratoga is part of the Menlo Church that started in 1873. I love this campus: everyone is welcoming and warm. Scott, the campus pastor, is direct and open to share his life struggles with us, which makes our belief real. Rie and the campus connection team, design, and run events that bring the whole church together. In Menlo Saratoga, I have strengthened my faith and grown great friendships. So come and join us.

I began attending when the Saratoga campus began 2 years ago. I have found a place to call home after a decade. The sermons are meaningful and applicable to anyone's life and have created in better quality of life for me and not just on Sunday's. I have made friends and many growing relationships with men and women my age, and I have a lot of respect for the pastoral staff. Really recommend this church if you're looking for something you can stick with

Great people here at Menlo Saratoga. Everyone from all ages can find community here, not to mention the free coffee and donuts/bagels on Sunday mornings before service starts!

Personally I love this place, the people there are very friendly welcoming and non-judgmental which was just what I was looking for in a church. Plus coffee, donuts and bagels for 9:00am and 10:30am Sunday morning services is pretty sweet too! As Menlo Saratoga is a satellite campus of Menlo Church, sermons are pre-recorded. They're introduced by the associate pastor of the campus, then shown on a huge LCD video wall. That may appeal to some people like me, but I know there's people out there who like the personal touch of live sermons. I can say Pastor John Otberg is a very charismatic and knowledgeable pastor, the guy could make the book of Numbers sound interesting. Also, maximum capacity is about 250, so don't expect anything mega churches where you can get lost in the crowd, but it is a more intimate experience
