About Us

Our Story

Chapel of La Mirada is built on legacy-one rooted in faith, family, and freedom. The venue stands on the grounds of Maranatha Chapel, a Romanian Christian church founded by immigrants who fled communist oppression in search of a place to worship freely.

Under a regime that silenced faith, Daniel and Lucy Burtea left everything behind to build a new life in a country where their love for Jesus could flourish openly. In California, they planted not just a church-but a refuge. A home. A sanctuary.

"We celebrated my granddaughter's birthday at the Chapel of La Mirada and it was truly amazing. The property is absolutely beautiful and the highlight for the kids and adults was the gorgeous firepit. We ended the evening making s'mores under the stars. We also rented the tables and chairs directly from them which made setup a breeze. Everything was smooth, easy, and honestly perfect. This place made her birthday unforgettable. Highly recommend."

Valentin Rada Granddaughter's Birthday Party

"The Chapel of La Mirada was the perfect place for my daughter's baby shower. The surrounding landscapes and lush greenery created such a natural elegance that brought out the beauty in every photo. It felt like we were tucked away in a peaceful sanctuary. Serene, quiet, and full of charm. Everyone kept complimenting how beautiful and relaxing the space was. I'm so grateful we found this hidden gem."

Daniela Griego Daughter's Baby Shower

"I recently booked Chapel of La Mirada for my upcoming wedding and I couldn't be more excited. From the moment I stepped onto the property, I knew it was the perfect place. The greenery surrounding the chapel offers so much privacy and a peaceful, romantic atmosphere. I fell in love with the gazebo space for our ceremony and the large open area in the back where we'll host the reception. Even before the big day, l've had friends and family tell me how beautiful the venue is. I'm so grateful to have found a place that feels so personal and special for such an important moment in our lives."
