Day 2 at Retro Church I arrived early and walked into a pre-service meeting which I did not know…read moreoccurred. As I tip toed in and almost shriveled with embarrassment of how early I was, my initial expectation was to have someone in the congregation tell me to wait outside until service time but that didn't happen. I was waved in by smiling faces and as I walked in to a seat I see a perky face telling me "Come sit here with me". The woman introduced herself as Theresa. When I say the "welcome" poured out from her I mean it. Once again it felt like home. As I continued to listen to their meeting, here comes Pastor Mike shouting me out for a google post I submitted (Yes, I'm now in Yelp posting...sue me). Although it was unexpected, the congregation made me feel like I have known them forever!. As service was about to begin here come Mary Ellen with her big smile and warm hug and right behind her is my Allie with another hug. Another warm welcome and a hug from Kelly who felt familiar and Jordan with her sweet smile also welcomed us. My daughter was with me and she looked at me like "what is going on?" this was her 1st church experience since she was younger so this threw her off but she later confessed it was nice. The service and the worship team were amazing and the message once again hit (there's that word again) home! Pastor Mike is blessed and highly anointed! This is his calling! The delivery of God's message was simple and resonates with everyone. Pastor Mike and his wife have created a very unique community. The worship music is a gift that fills your heart as you sing but the people are filled with the holy spirit. There is nothing fake about this church. I have to say I remembered a verse that came to mind as I prayed "Matthew 11:28-30: Jesus invites people who are weary and burdened to come to him, and he will give them rest" this church lives up to that because they welcome EVERYONE! There is no side eye or gossip about what you are wearing, no judgements just "Come as you are". If you want to visit and be a part of a holy Spirit filled church this is your HOME (can I get an Amen!). This is what different feels and looks like and Retro Church is definitely different. So umm, why are you still debating? Join us every Saturday at 10 a.m. you can hug me later.

At first this religious organization was wonderful. Pastor John is an amazing man, approachable,…read moregenuine and sincere. However some members of this church are vindictive, cruel and inappropriate. To broadcast to members and non members about Pastor's personal life is a low blow. The leadership of this organization needs to self-reflect on their own lives before judging others. As Pastor said, churches are made up of sinners. No church is perfect and if it is there is a serious issue. I wanted to become a member of this church and at this point I do not believe being associated with hatred like this is healthy. Unfortunately this situation has caused myself and others much hurt. Something needs to be done, I stand behind my Pastor and his family but I do not stand behind gossip and hatred from these other families.

Elders are not listed, many have resigned in the past. He is the 'pope' of the church, it is his personal kingdom.

If you can't sick or don't show up for a while don't expect to hear from anyone. Really is shameful. The church owns land on Nicholls Rd and if it was a different kind of ministry they could have built a beautiful check with a thriving ministry on it. But unfortunately, the pastor would rather keep his church as a small family affair.

I'm amazed how I never heard from the pastors or really anyone there. It seems as if I'm only relevant when I'm giving my time or money. Speaking of money, it's interesting how I hear from the church when they have a need or they want me to give a "love offering" only in cash to the pastors. I thought the pastors cared about me but maybe they were always pretending? Other than, that I never hear from them. I thought this was a community but I guess you're only as valuable as what you can do for them. So sad and definitely c
