Church on Purpose is a blessed place to attend. I gave it 4 stars only because I'm not used to attending large ministries. Most of all the pastor preaches and teaches the Word of God without compromising. The Word is taught so that one should want to live a life pleasing to God, and it will meet you exactly where you are. If anyone should come who may not know how to change or come out of sin; the teaching will help. Both the Sr.and executive pastors and wives are loving and genuine. The ministry serves the community well, and I love that. There are 2 services to attend on Sundays @ 8:30 & 10:30, and awesome bible study on Wednesdays at 6:30pm. The praise and worship is anointed, amazing and welcomes the presence of God. God is glorified above all. All I can say is come with a spirit of expectation and let God do the rest. It's a place for all types of people, on different levels, going through different walks of life; and we all need Jesus. God is doing great things at this ministry; the missing piece of the puzzle is you. Don't take my word for it just come experience it for yourself.

Hats off to the Sound of Purpose concert. This was an awesome performance and experience. All of the leaders were dynamic. Norman Roberts, our director, did a dynamic job choosing the songs for this performance. If you weren’t in attendance, you missed a treat. I pray God will eventually take us forward to record a CD. Great job choir!!!

If you are looking for a pastor who teaches you how to have a closer relationship with The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit then CHURCH ON PURPOSE is the PERFECT place to be. Every one is FAMILY. Every time I walk through the doors of the church and I see those familiar faces I forget about the trouble of the day, week, month, and year. I have learned soooo much from Pastor Love and other Pastors and Teachers. The Minister of Music, Brother Norman is a maestro with the Choir. And his voice...... Wow!!!!! I LOVE THIS CHURCH AND ALL OF THE BROTHERS AND SISTERS I HAVE MADE. And last but not least...... First Lady Love is the most sweetest, down to earth first Lady that you will meet. She is always smiling, greeting the members, giving hugs, and.......... She sings in the choir and sometimes usher. WHAT FIRST LADY YOU KNOW THAT DOES ALL OF THAT??!!! Come on be honest with yourself. You have read this far. You might as well come visit. I'll save a seat for you and when you feel that tug on your heart, I'll walk with you. Come on. COP is the place to be on Sundays @ 9:00 a m and Wednesdays @ 6:30 p m. ( Intercessory Prayer @ 5:15 p.m) Come on......I Dare You!

The folks here are beyond nice and inviting. A place of worship that can be understood by all ages and nationalities. Solid biblical advice that will keep you grounded. Pastor Eric Love and his Wife Catrina are a true blessing to the community.
