I grew up in this church, since I was 16. My children also have grown up in the church. The Pastor is one of the sweetest people you'll ever meet, but tough. Everyone here is friendly, loving and helpful.

Almost 7 yrs ago when I stepped into this Church, My life changed forever. I was lost, unsatisfied & didn't even know my purpose in life. Pastor JC Milligan has a True Burden to reach all the Souls of San Benito & all the surrounding area. He is a true man of God.His Preaching & Teachings are Powerful. Wednesday's Bible Study are as Powerful.I love my Church Family.I love the Milligan Family. COME & EXPERIENCE ACTS 2:38

If you don't have a church for you to worship, I strongly recommend this church. The church service is awesome and the preaching second to none for the holy spirit is with the pastor. Ever since my family and I have been coming here, nothing but blessings.

My family and I were looking for a place to worship while away from Rockport devastation. However God had other plans for us, given the situation in Rockport due to hurricane Harvey, the Lord lead us here. We've relocated to the Valley, and we've decided to make TPC our new home of worship! If you or anyone you know needs to get Grace outside the box, TPC alter is the place for that. -The Orozco Family.
