Wow! Finally a church with people who are full of joy, gratitude, humility, and reality. These people are real. I have felt so welcomed from the very moment I entered the parking lot! I was very skeptical because I have been hurt at other churches but now I see that it was all about the guy in charge, especially at my last church. But Destiny World Outreach? They are so real, humble, and truly welcome EVERYONE with open arms and open hearts. They really mean it when they say "welcome home" 🥹

This church does so much for the community such as a drive thru food pantry. The staff goes above and beyond those efforts, so when I was looking for a church, they didn't disappoint. I've now attended 3 Sunday services and now, I'm home. From the worship to the inspiring message; Pastor delivers hope and conviction. If you're looking for praise and worship; welcome home!

I went to the food pantry today with my mother because I barely have any food for my family. I am a family of 4 and my mother lives separately from me and is a family of 2. We drove together to save gas. How do they calculate 36 cookies in 1 package, 3 stalks of celery and 2 small packages of stew beef sufficient for 2 separate family homes? Seriously? That's supposed to help myself and 3 kids? This is supposed to help my mom and stepdad? This was horrible.and ridiculous. 👎🏽

I have been coming here for 3 years. This is my church home. The Pastors, Chad, and Marla are very inspirational God Led people. This place is truly what community and coming together from all walks of life looks like. We are family ❤️

Everything Alexa Pena said a year ago from this post. Please use discernment. If a pastor only uses 3 shorts passages and then starts talking about how God is going to bless you financially, run! Run far away! I'm sincerely and loving praying for Chad, because he's not sending people to heaven, he's doing quite the opposite. Please stay away from here is you want to know the true Jesus Christ, Son of God.

The youth is so cliquey, it's absurd. Not a single youth I interacted with - or tried to - even smiled at me. The way they treat the church as a place to hang out with their friends and not a shared space to serve the lord is so backwards. They aren't dressed appropriately and might I also add, every non-elderly/ over-40 person is also very rude/judgmental. The whole church is in a trance of consumerism and refuses to be nice to anyone outside their income bracket. The lessons taught at this church are clearly not being put into practice. I've heard entire rows of people complaining/gossiping about a person who smelled. What happened to consideration?

The worship and the word is top notch!!!! There are always events, activities, and groups happening allowing fellowship. The kids and youth areas are top of the line. They combine food, fun, and Jesus. My kids enjoy going to church because of Destiny. Everything they do, they do it with excellence. Pastor Chad and Pastor Marla lead by example and are very humble and down to earth.

I absolutely lovee this church! The vibe is so happy and welcoming all the time! I love that when you first enter the sanctuary for the service the lights are dimmed and everyone is singing. The choir is absolutely amazing! They also have the words on the screen in case you don't know the song. They offer child care for all ages free for you to enjoy the service...and there learning about god in a fun, hands on lesson. There is a coffee shop and food for you to enjoy with screens to watch the service. The people here are just amazing and I would def recommend stopping by if you haven't already!
