THE LITTLE BROWN CHURCH WAS OPENED IN 1939

BUILDING A GREAT MUSEUM FOR THE SAN FERNANDO VALLEY




The Little Brown Church Studio City - 1939 - historic postcard - Gift to The Museum of the San Fernando Valley from Gary Fredburg 2014.  (click on image to enlarge it.)



Three years before the San Fernando Valley found itself part of the Second World War, a tiny Protestant chapel was established in Studio City. Today, the historic structure is primarily a wedding site but still houses a small and devoted congregation. The wedding place of President Ronald Regan and his wife Nancy, the modest chapel has been host to many celebrity marriages.

The information about Little Brown Church on this page is incorrect. Firstly, this is not even a picture of Little Brown Church in Studio City. Secondly, the church is not primarily a marriage chapel. Although many marriages are performed there, it is primarily a church. Finally, the congregation is not 'small'. Little Brown Church is part of a congregation of about 450 people. Thank you for making these corrections. Sincerely, Rev. Dr. Michael Kosik, Senior Pastor, Church of the Valley and The Little Brown Church
