What can be said about a church in my neighborhood, that I have never been to…read more THAT IT'S FREAKING AWESOME SAUCE! I wanted a change of pace of church for this day, and Victory was my choice. Actually, my cousin attends and I knew it was a nice welcoming place. As soon as you walk in, it just felt loving. People were smiling, greeting one another. And being that it is BHM, everyone was dressed in African attire. So pretty! We(my daughter and I) arrived early, so the praise team began their mic check as we grabbed really good seats on the main floor of the church. The church filled up FAST. And it was a packed house!! Wow! Everyone was so kind! People danced in the isles and sang along together and it was really beautiful. I was excited to see a full band with HORNS!!!!! The brass was in the place making beautiful music! Wow, they have a tight band! I am a lover of music. I can hold a note:) And I was very happy to hear such wonderful sounds in this church house! The preaching was funny, relatable and thought-provoking. The preacher was thoughtful and spoke well. He didn't scream and yell. His life applicable examples were helpful and understandable. You could really FEEL THE LOVE IN THE PLACE. As a total stranger, I didn't feel out of place, weird or even left out. It was truly a God filled service with good singing and dancing and music and preaching and WOOOOHOOOOO!!!! I was very happy this was the church I decided to visit on Sunday. If you live in the South Suburban area (Matteson, IL), I encourage you to give this place of worship a visit. What a great way to start my week!

I went to this church every year of my life until about five years ago when I moved out of the…read morecommunity. Even then I would occasionally visit on holidays and with my grandmother. It was always a big part of my family and my faith. How sad to see them publicly admonish same sex couples. This is only a church for you if you believe marriage (and equality) belong to a man and woman. Very disappointing for me and my heart.

This is my home church and has been for the past 10 years. The leadership is incredible. They have…read morea plethora of options for everyone to be involved and grow in their walk with God. From the youth group to men's group to women's group and Sunday services I can truly say I just LOVE it. They have such a love for serving their community and are extremely welcoming to any newcomers. We always joke around that we are a "melting pot" because we are not just one race, we are many! Come check us out and see for yourself! :)

I went to this church a couple of times based on a recommendation from somebody I know. While…read morethere, was ignored by absolutely everybody including the one who invited me. They opened a park to the public, so they say. I took some kids to the park, and the security guard glared at us, causing one 5 year old little girl to cry, this after being refused access to their bathroom. I saw the pastor a few days later, he told me that the bathroom was cleaned already for Sunday and they didn't appreciate my asking kids to use it because it would have messed up the bathroom. Guess the pastor isn't familiar with the story of Mary and Martha. He then told me to make arrangements with their session next time I want to take kids to the park which sign says is open for all, seemingly forgetting about Jesus saying "bring the children to me." Terrible church that seemingly doesn't follow the teachings of the Holy Scriptures. They should all be ashamed of themselves.

Wonderful Catholic parish community on the far southwest side of suburban Chicago. This church was…read morefounded in the late 1980s as a spin off from St. Michael to the west and St. Julie to the east. Since then two more parishes have sprung up - St. Stephen and St. Francis. Elizabeth Seton is a large parish that includes a regional Catholic grammar school supported by four different parishes - SS. Julie, Francis, Seton, and Stephen. As a community St. Elizabeth Seton has a vibrant number of ministries and a rich liturgy each week. These include a Seniors Club, a Men's Club, a Women's Club, and a number of individual events such as Men's Club Fish Fry during Lent. Liturgical celebrations include all the major holy days, and Saturday Mass each week in addition to the Sunday Masses. Easter Week is especially wonderful, culminating in the Easter Saturday Vigil. Stop by some time and experience all that Elizabeth Seton Church has to offer.

I love the exterior architecture with the front pyramid staircase and lanterns. Exceptional interior architecture as well with the wooden Altar. This was my first time in the church as I passed it and it was open. I picked up a bulletin and out of thirty (30) names of sick people listed for prayer remembrance, there was one Polish person listed, Josie Szajerski and I knew her. How likely was that!? Appreciate this church, they don't build them like this anymore.
