I don’t go to the church, but we were invited by a member to a workout class. The staff was not friendly and came off rude/offensive when telling us they need to scan our ids (when the lady that invited us they never did that or heard of people doing that) as women of God, a heart posture check Is definitely needed. Will not be back nor will I visit.

We struggled to find a church that wasn’t afraid to preach the Bible and to follow Jesus, not what the world sees as acceptable. No excuses and conviction. We always leave feeling full and ready to start the new week. Each service gives a wonderful message and lesson that if it hurts your feelings it’s probably meant for you. So happy we found this church. We will continue to go as long as the job has us here in Odessa.

My daughter has been enrolled in the daycare since April and I am absolutely thrilled with the staff here. They are always so friendly and keep as much care and concern for kids as parents do. Our first room was with Anna and Abby and Jessica took to them so well and had so much fun throughout the day. Then when the new year started we got switched to another room with Shannon and Monica and they are amazing with Jessica. They always let me know if her behavior was less than acceptable and what things she was doing so that I could address those issues as well. I feel like the staff here really take the time to get to know each child and are willing to help you address issues as opposed to just ignoring them.

Bible based sermons. The pastor makes the message clear and easy to understand. They also have live sermons on Facebook, which you can listen from the comfort of your home.

Attended the Juneteenth event that was put on. Was a wonderful performance. Place is nice and cool. This is not our regular church. The staff there was rude and talked down to us. Kicked us out of the church said we couldn't enter until 6 like everyone else. Was almost 7 when things got rolling and doors were open to public. Would be nice if the staff would lighten up a bit it wasn't our regular church. Definitely will not return.

The most remarkable experience I have had in Odessa, TX. I stayed away for so many years because of the size but have found out that was a huge mistake. If only I had raised my family in this church. I still am so moved by the presentation of the Word in ways that make my heart want to leap & my soul want to cry. I am so blessed to be there, finally!

We were planning a visit to Odessa to visit a friend who was very ill. We were driving from San Angelo and were sure to leave early enough to make the service at 10:30am. We arrived at 10:35am and were driven by your golf cart service by a very nice man and were met at the door by some super friendly folks. When we went thru' the double doors and opened the main door, we were blasted backwards by the sheer amplification of volume . It was a full blown rock concert at 10:30. I grew up in that church even before the other sanctuary was dedicated in 1954. I was so disappointed. We did a quick U-turn and left looking for another church. We found one.

The church didn’t end up being the right fit for me. I didn’t feel the level of kindness and connection I was hoping for.

Was here for my grandpa's funeral service. The service was wonderful. The preacher truly made my family feel more at ease and it was clear he cared and wanted to be there to support us.

This nest of heretics has cobbled together a kind of pseudo-christianity based on cherry-picked passages from the Bible, and wants to force the rest of us to submit to its authoritie.
