4 years agoUse to go to this church 20 years ago as a child with my family. Went back for first time in years with my mother, I enjoyed the music but feel some better songs out there that i feel really work in connecting you to god. Maybe try mix it up. The main pastor wasn't there and his wife filled in. I didn't connect to her sermon. I loved the topic though. Do not like the woman Kay feels off

6 years agoGreat new building, comfortable seating and the greeting was warm and welcome from the people at the front door through to the members. Good coffee at the end with a family friendly environment. Teaching from the pastor Jon Hales was bible based and presented in a very interesting and thought provoking fashion.
