    I found this church when I was in town, I would always drive by on Briggsmore and see this message…read moreon the corner "If God put you to it , he will bring you through it " or along that say. My husband and I dedicated our little girl here when she was 6months. Old. My husband and I reconciled here as well. I am very attached to this church. God has changed me , rocked me , transformed me and keeps doing his good work in me. I started coming here in 2013- I still absolutely love this church after 5 years. Here I am ....the sermons, pastors, the worship team, the atmosphere, they are all about prayer, fasting which is so powerful, being unified and they care about the members. I love that they not only have Sunday services, but everyday of the week something is always going on... Woman classes, men, couple, youth camps and more. I enjoy the married/ couple meetings on Sundays at 9 am "Family Strong" awesome Pastor Tom teaches it. love attending the services and classes when I am visiting family in The Modesto area. The Holy Spirit Rocks me each time I come! Even when I watch on Youtube or watch the channel on stream TV. Well, with that said No other church is like TheHouseModesto. I would love to live closer but I am here in San Jose. Awesome church, so blessed I found this church!

    Great house of worship. They incorporated a little bit of politics in one service which was not…read moreacceptable but overall a great experience

    I have attended off and on since about 1982. This is the…read morechurch I come back to. On top of the welcoming staff and volunteers the message from Pastor Dave is always true to God, understanding of human struggles, kind and loving. It is a large congregation which is my preference, but you don't feel invisible in the crowd. Life can be hard, Jesus is waiting for you to reach out and grasp his hand.

    I moved back to the area in 2017 and had family attending, so we joined them. It is a larger…read morechurch than I was used to, but the Word of God came alive for me and would answer questions I didn't even realize I had struggled with. Pastor Damian's teaching style of going thru each verse of the a book of the Bible helps me understand scripture more, especially when I take notes and review them over the week, praying and asking the Lord to speak to my heart thru His Word and help transform my mind. I LOVE the transparency of the Pastors who are teaching, reminding us that they struggle and are still growing to become more like Christ, from the pulpit. We are ALL sinners saved by Grace thru the blood of Jesus. I am also Thankful for the Body of Christ, who attend. People who attend are kind & friendly, but it can be easy to be new, come and go and not feel connected. However when I started serving & getting involved, I began to feel more connected. I started attending the Women's Ministry on Wednesday nights and eventually my husband & I attended the marrieds group. The marrieds group helped me cultivate friendships. I LOVE Serving the Body and Growing in God's Word at Calvary Chapel Modesto. By the way, the Children's Ministry is Dynamic. I was amazed when I helped at VBS and saw all that went into it. It is such a fun week for kids and I wish my kids could have experienced this every summer when they were young. They now help serve at it with me.

    This church is the reason I'm no longer a Christian. I attended for years and left feeling far more…read morehurt than supported. I was involved in a situation with someone the church hired that caused real harm. What has stayed with me isn't just what happened (which never should have been overlooked by so many people) but the complete lack of accountability afterward. There was no acknowledgment, no apology, and no indication that anyone cared about the damage that had been done. That silence has stayed with me and made it incredibly difficult to feel safe or welcome in any church or Christian community since. I also came away feeling like the leadership didn't truly know or invest in the people sitting in the pews. A church should be a community where people are known, valued, and cared for, not just faces in a crowd. On top of that, this is an extremely cliquey church. I spent years trying to build friendships and get involved, only to feel invisible. It genuinely felt like I didn't matter to the church or to the people in it. This may not be everyone's experience, but it was mine, and I think it's important to share for those seeking a genuinely safe and attentive faith community. I think I'd be in a completely different place in life if people would have done their part to make me feel welcomed and safe, especially after an incredibly damaging situation that I still haven't recovered from.
