So What Is Saddleback Dads?

Saddleback Dads is a weekly hang for dads who want to grow as men, love their families well, and follow Jesus without pretending to have it all figured out. No pressure. No perfect dads. Just show up.

You do not need to be a Saddleback member. If you are a dad, you belong here.

When We Meet

Monday nights
8:30pm to 9:30pm

You are always welcome to stick around another 30 minutes after to talk, catch your breath, or connect with a few guys.

We meet after bedtime so you do not have to miss dinner or the nighttime routine at home.

How to Find Us

Saddleback Church
Lake Forest Campus
Plaza Building
Plaza View Room (3rd floor)

1 Saddleback Parkway
Lake Forest, CA 92630

Where to Park and Where to Go

Park in the main lot near the Plaza Building. Walk toward the Plaza Building entrance and look for other dads showing up around 8:20 to 8:30pm.

If you get turned around, ask anyone where the Plaza Building is and they will point you in the right direction.

If it is your first time, come a few minutes early and we will help you find a seat and a table.

What Monday Nights Look Like

We keep things simple and real.

Most weeks start with a short 10 to 20 minute message taught by one of our guys. After that, we break into table conversations and prayer for about 20 to 30 minutes.

The night runs about an hour. You can head out or hang out after.

There is coffee, water, and usually some snacks guys bring.

You get out of this what you put into it. The more you show up, the deeper the friendships get, and those relationships matter in every season of life.
