Attended while we were in Rapid City due to a hospital stay. This is a very friendly, spirit led, and welcoming church. The worship was great as well.

Non judgemental and prays for EVERYONE and our city as it should be. Everyones friendly and the music and easy to understand sermons are AWESOME! Awarded many times for supporting missionaries around the world! Never pushed for tithes but if you know the word of God and able to support a church its welcomed! Sturgis week pastor is a great guest speaker and church offers all bikers to stop by for a blessing of safety! Glad I was recommended this church thru a friend YEARS AGO! 😁 Watch it on line too if you're looking for a great church to possibly attend or not able to get out!

This is an amazing, dynamic and diverse church with multiple opportunities to grow. Throughout the week there are regular bible studies, prayer groups, life groups and opportunities for youth. It's fun, friendly and relevant while retaining and strong theological base. If I lived in Rapid City, this would definitely be my church home.

Welcoming to first time visitors without being overbearing. We were there during a special service. Music was good. Staff seems to really care about pastor and vice versa. Church has a heart for missions.

Felt very unwelcome. We didn't even stay. We had 2 kids and no help to find the "kids" room from First Assembly. No one even came up to us when we entered. The one lady who finally did was rude. We left. Won't go back! Trying our Real Life Church this week! :)

Pastor Craig is amazing. He recently presided at my parents' interment of ashes ceremony and I could not have asked for a more caring, meaningful or thoughtful service.
