This Happened Today- Jan 15th @1:30 PMI am writing this review to warn others who may be…read moreconsidering a Sozo prayer session at this ministry. My wife and I sought out this service because she was in genuine need of prayer and spiritual support. We were asked to make an initial payment of $25 upfront, with an additional $75 requested afterward --framed as a "donation." As a ministry operating in the name of Jesus Christ, I believe donations must remain truly voluntary. Requiring payment and labeling it a "donation" feels deceptive and, frankly, borders on fraudulent. Prayer and ministry should be freely given, not sold. The session itself was deeply disappointing and inadequate. My wife was respectful throughout--she spoke calmly, answered the facilitator's questions honestly, and never raised her voice or showed disrespect. Yet the facilitator appeared personally offended by her responses and seemed unwilling or unable to continue effectively. The prayer we desperately hoped for never materialized. Instead of compassion and strength, we encountered weakness and fragility that prevented any meaningful help. Even more troubling, one of the very first topics raised -before we had even fully walked in the door was whether the same card could be charged for the remaining $75. That set the tone: a cold, transactional welcome that ranks among the least hospitable I have ever experienced in any church or ministry setting. I chose to overlook it in the moment because my wife truly needed help, but in the end she was let down when she was most vulnerable. We deserve a full refund of the $25 already paid, no further charges attempted, and a sincere apoloav. I hope the leadership reflects honestly on these practices rather spiritualizing this dysfunction. Prospective visitors should be aware: if you come seeking prayer, expect to encounter mandatory fees disguised as donations, a highly transactional approach, and the risk of an inadequate session if your honest answers don't align with the facilitator's expectations. Proceed with caution.

I discovered this church from my in-laws, who have been attending this church for years…read more Never being raised to attend church, nor being raised in a religious household, I was and am a Believer and the Christian Faith speaks to me and gives me great comfort. My first impression of this beautiful church is exactly that...it's a simply gorgeous campus filled with plenty of parking, lush landscaping, and there are several modern, beautiful buildings on campus. They have a gathering area outside, where you can grab a cup of coffee before or after service. The worship buildings are beautifully and simply appointed, and they are comfortable and the seating is ample and comfortable as well. The "stage" where the pastors lead service is high enough where you can see the stage from where you sit. They have a large screen in back of the stage for video and the audio that accompanies it is top notch! Each service we've been to on Sunday is beautifully and highly focused on musical worship, which I've never experienced at churches before to this stellar degree. The church has a nice group of very talented musicians and vocalists who perform so well together and include a video backdrop on stage on the screen the lyrics so parishioners can sing along. The ministers he tee are fantastic, down to earth and make you feel at home. I have enjoyed listening to each of their sermons and always leave here feeling the love of God and of my fellow man and woman in attendance , as everyone here is so nice and friendly! This church has so much to offer and I feel so fortunate to be able to worship here! It feels like family!

Reading these reviews, it's almost like you and I are talking about a different church. From the…read morethings said by most of the reviews, it doesn't appear as if some of these people actually went to the church. I have been attending Foothills for 26 years. It is a very healthy, welcoming church, a community. It offers so many venues in which to be involved or participate. It is very strong in children and youth programs. There are several pastors on staff who take turns preaching, which gives variety and keeps things interesting. It is Biblically based. That is what I want in a church. And, there is no political bias shown. Brian's take on it is, if you are contemplating voting for someone, look at their platform, judge it against God's word and see if this person supports your values. I am 67, have been in many churches, my father was a pastor for 40 years. I consider myself to be a pretty good judge, and I give Foothills *****.

I am writing to update my review of this church because it is under temporary new leadership. The…read morenew temporary pastor is a far better man than any pastor this church has had in the past. The members and elders remain largely unchanged, and the issues I raised in my initial review remain serious problems BUT it is clear that this man is at least trying to lead the community in a godly way rather than seeking personal glory through the twisting of God's word. This new pastor won't be staying, he is only leading the search for a permanent replacement, so whether the church truly changes is impossible to predict at this point but for now it seems like a possibility, and that is a huge change. Given all the other choices for places to worship in Placerville I would still recommend fishing somewhere else, but I did feel I should update my review to reflect this small, temporary change in the hope that lasting change does eventually take hills.

My mom is also a fan of this parish and enjoys listening to Father Renier. I also appreciate their gift shop within the church which in my opinion, has some pretty reasonably-priced items. I've already purchased different statues and gifts for house blessings for family and friends. I'd say that in all of Sac County, this is the only gift shop that I've been to so far that have a variety of items from bracelets, prayer cards, Saint cards, Holy Family and Saint statues, holy water don't and many other things. So it's definitely my fave place to visit for gifts. Inside the church, there is beautiful Divine Mercy chapel area where you can light candles and also pray to St. Joseph. And lastly, the youth choir in the evening mass 6pm on Sunday is always wonderful to attend to hear the youth sing their beautiful voices. If you are in Folsom check this church out.

Until now, we could not find a church that met our criteria or needs. Beacon Church has checked every box on our list and more. 1. We felt that the Pastor Bryce and his wife, Shelbie as well as all the other members of the church took genuine effort to get to know our family and make us feel welcomed. When we experienced a hardship, we received multiple texts from people in the church providing us with prayer, love, and support. We were offered meals and help with running errands. 2. They provide wonderful childcare for the little ones during service. Our 2 year old daughter loved Sunday school and looks forward to it every week. We trust and feel safe leaving our daughter in their hands while we enjoy service. 3. They create a sense of community and family within the church and neighborhood. We are remembered and greeted excitedly by name when we attend church. The church has held multiple family friendly events in the neighborhood including family movie night at the park, a kite festival, and colorfest event. 4. We feel welcomed and not intimidated at all for where we are in our walk with faith. My husband and I are in different parts of our journey in regards to our faith and neither of us have ever felt pressured or intimated by anyone at the church or Pastor Bryce's sermons. They meet us where we're at and support and encourage us needed. I can go on and on about how much we love Beacon Church.
