    I brought the New Year in there. The service was nice. I brought it in with my mother, sister, nephew, cousin and her husband and my youngest two. My older to didn't take the trip with us to the south. My family really enjoyed the service. The Pastor was hilarious and he had a good message. It's a beautiful church. Sorry I don't have pics. That was my third time there. I was there twice in 2017. I have to say the congregation wasn't very welcoming to us visitors which I found strange. I didn't get any of that southern hospitality that is usually plentiful for newcomers or out of towners. There were a lot of folk staring but not much hospitable communication. I am use to congregations that are overly friendly and welcoming to new folk in their church either upon entering or exiting. 🤷🏽Anywho, we enjoyed and we would visit again if we are in town.

    Beautiful Church. Was there for a home going service for a former associates sister who had suddenly passed away after having a birthday just 3 weeks ago. The Pastor, Rev Kenneth Doe. Plenty of parking, enough seating for hundreds. Sound and acoustics are outstanding.

    I was spending the winter on Fripp Island and I thought that I would like to experience a gospel service principally for the music. It was an experience that I shall never forget. It began with the warmest of welcomes by the deacons and ushers and by the people sitting close to me. I should mention at this point that I am a white Canadian. The music from the choir was shockingly moving and I had goose bumps, Then the preaching was something I had never experience before. I am a Roman Catholic and I cannot tell you anything about the thousands of sermons I have heard in my lifetime but I can recite the sermons I heard at your church beginning with A Righteous Cause to Get out of the cave and get into the press. Overall I cannot express enough my gratitude to you all for accepting me into your community. I will be with you next winter. May the good Lord watch over you all and take care of you.

    My experience is i will never be the same. I have never seen a funeral service preached the way Pastor Doe preached that day. When i left that funeral i was filled with nothing but joy down in my soul. I going back to visit real soon.

    This is my place of worship where we are fed by Pastor K. Doe who is led by the Lord Jesus Christ. The Place of the Outpouring where we are Walking in Excellence.
