    Best church I have ever been to. God lead me and my husband to this church. Pastor Jamie and his wife Maddie are amazing. The staff and everyone you meet are so welcoming, friendly, and so great. This place is filled with amazing people that lift you up. I can’t say enough how great this church is!

    God sent PPC to help heal my heart in His perfect timing & it is hard to put to words just how much I appreciate & love this church community. For a few years before finding a home here my entire reality crumbled and EVERYTHING OTHER THAN CHRIST that I thought was a part of my foundation was crushed and stamped out. God has used PPC to hold me up and keep me rooted in Christ to find such beauty in such encompassing brokenness. They took me in and have loved on my family in ways I never would’ve imagined: the generosity, encouragement, and biblical grounding has been incredible. God is using this Church body to help me reset my reality and expectations to what God has for me and my family. Palmetto Pointe Church is a GENUINE and HONEST reflection of Christ that I hope everyone in this broken world is fortunate enough to experience. If you need hope and refuge come and experience our living God in action at PPC!

    I was lost, September 2022 walked into their campus and encountered God and the most genuine, Bible believing/teaching people I have found on earth. Not only do they practice what they preach but also all is aligned with scripture. They will pray for you, rejoice with you, cheer for you, you will walk in completely alone and walk out with a warrior church family behind you.

    Palmetto Pointe Church is my family away from family!! Right when you walk in you can feel the love. Pastor Jamie’s heart for the Lord is evident. He goes out of his way to meet and greet everyone who is visiting. The kids program is amazing!! The message given is real, authentic, and challenging. Once I walked in, I knew I found a new church home. If you’re new to the area and looking for a church, I highly recommend!

    We absolutely love our church. I started coming in the new year. I was invited to come 2years ago but we finally took the leap this year and I am ever so grateful. My children love kids pointe and look forward to going. They have learned to worship, read scripture and tithe. It really is priceless as a parent to see them grow in his love. I am so grateful 🙏❤️

    We love Palmetto Pointe Church’s KidsPointe Preschool! I was very nervous sending my 3 year old to a new school this year because we had a really bad experience last year somewhere else. Immediately when we met Ms. Hayley I knew it would be the perfect fit for my daughter. The way they care about each kid and how happy my daughter is everyday when she comes home…. I just know I made the right choice. I can’t wait to see how much she thrives this year in Preschool! I am coming back to edit my post because we started going to church on Sunday! I truly have never felt more comfortable in a church than I did coming to service on Sunday’s! Everyone is so warm and welcoming. My daughter absolutely loves Kids Pointe and I can barely get her sticker on her fast enough before she’s booking it to her classroom!

    We started over 2 years ago looking for a church with a good message. My sister in law invited us to her baptism and we never left ! The staff is so friendly made us feel so welcome.

    If you would like to find peace, sanctuary and have a deeper relationship with God then Palmetto Pointe Church of God is your answer. You and your family will be welcomed with open arms and warm hearts...we have been attending PPCOG for over 10 years and without this wonderful church family we would be nowhere...please plan on attending!

    What an amazing church. They preach the Word, let Holy Spirit have his way and welcome everyone. Their kids and teens ministry is amazing, and the church does so so much in the community. I love that even with alot of people in attendance they still do what are considered " small church " activities, such as pot lucks after service on special occasions. This is more like a family than anything else. A church that supports one another, has amazing leadership and still moves on the gifts of the Spirit is amazing to find. If you are looking for a church like the book of Acts, you have found it. They have been so amazing to me and my family and I have seen them absolutely stand in the gap when families are going through something. These are not perfect people, but people who love a perfect God

    An uplifting and introspective experience every week ... after 8 months of attending services and searching our hearts, we knew what we always knew of PPC, it's our home and we then became official members. It will be so very worth your while to come visit and let your heart tell you where you belong also ... dynamic, welcoming ... peace.
