The members were Godly people and welcomed me the minute I walked through the door. Several of them hugged me and welcomed me back. The 1st lady even gave me her personal phone number and told me to call her if I needed anything. I'm from the south and this church reminds me of home. I will definitely be in attendance as often as I can. Cuddos to Paster Robinson and the Grace Worship Center!!!!

The people of living hope warmly greeted me and my wife, the atmosphere was casual, come as you are no facade. The worship music was awesome, the worship was made up of multi age band.

I'm looking forward to opportunity to visit there again.

I went to 3 churches today, Easter Sunday 2015. The first two I visited were very nice. Large…read morecongregations, giant beautiful buildings, even free food and coffee at one of them. Many kind and good people all looking for God's love and all struggling with the vagarities of life. As I continued my "church search" I wanted to visit my old postal area from 30 years ago. I was then, and continue to be, a mail carrier. So I drove to my old route; Maze, 1st thru 3rd, Washington etc. And started looking for a black church. I was told there was a large one on I street. It was early and no services yet. I actually wanted a chuch closer to my old area. Hoping to maybe see some of my former patrons. The new manager at CVS said he didn't know of a black church but he'd look on his phone while I picked up a little something. He found that there was a church at 710 Martin Luther King Blvd...how fitting. Being an experienced mailperson. I belined it to the address. Only to see not a church like the others, but a small house with a tiny parking lot. I didn't notice that the Church's name had African in it, but I didn't figure in that part of town it was going to be filled with white people anyway :) I saw a black man standing in the doorway so I stopped and parked the car in the empty lot. By the time I got to the door it was closed. So I went ahead and softly knocked and after a few seconds was told to come in. There were four people there. Although not recognized, I not only was immediately welcomed and introduced but I knew I had found what I had been looking for. My "church search" was over, I had found my home. I knew God had directed me to that church. I explained my postal reason for being there and sat down. Over the next couple of hours I was blessed to meet some wonderful and righteous brothers and sisters. I saw the best and most heartfelt sermon I had ever seen in all of my 65 years. Bless you and thank you Reverand Shirley Rance-Taylor. I sang church songs and was blessed to be asked to join their choir. I prayed with my newfound brothers and sister's and stongly felt the Holy Spirit present. Special thanks to Mrs. Arsie Anderson for being my mentor and guide that day to Sister Ella for being my mentor and guide that Easter Sunday. What a wonderful blessing to have her at my side. I also want to say thank you and acknowledge Bother Jason Chinnis, Sister Tiffany, Brother Robie Hull, Brother Daryl and Mrs.Camp, Sister Cushberry, Brother Ronald Weatherly, Brother Anthony Spears and Sister Chinnis. They all welcomed me with open arms and the love of Christ and the Holy Spirit. I also want to give thanks to Richard "Dik" Green, one of the greatest men I've ever known, for helping to lead me to this wonderful House of Worship. May god bless this church and all the wonderful people I met that Easter Sunday in the year of our Lord 2015.

I attended Calvary Chapel in Modesto for many years until a bit of U.S. politics was included. God…read moreis not republican, nor democrat. I left. A few months ago I tried Turlock Calvary Chapel. The pastor began preaching against homosexuality, and sitting in the row in front of me to the right was a family with 2 teenage sons, one of which I would bet money on being gay. My heart dropped. This boy, if so, was just told he was not worthy. People say - God doesn't make mistakes. Then, this boy is not a mistake. No matter what scripture says regarding homosexuality, perhaps not crushing a child is a far better way to encourage his faith. This experience has been on my heart since that day. I hope the pastor sees this and perhaps considers that preaching love and kindness is not going against his moral values instead of preaching against someone who is probably struggling already.
