The service has communion every week because breaking bread with fellow Christians and remembering Jesus sacrifice is important to them. The pastors name is Ben Partin. Ben and his wife Kristen are people you could just hang out with. I feel like I can call them just to ask a question about the Bible or anything. Honest and humble fam. They have kids, therefore they do bike days and other fun days for kids to hang out and fellowship. Small congregation with prayer as a priority, as well as small groups. Ben does a great balance of real life struggles and delights, real Bible teachings, and a good sense of humor. I recommend this church. Church starts at 1030 with a bible study before it, if you feel so inclined. See you there.

But when I…read morewalked thru the door They made me feel welcome, like I was part of the family, and had just come home. And it hasn't changed in that 4 years. Leaving my old church, I never thought I would find a church I would like as much let alone surpass the one I left, but I did. People make a church, and the people here are very sincere and caring. If you have a problem of any kind, they will help you fix it. Please come and visit us. We would love to see you. P.S. We have various programs for all ages.

My 4 person military family (age 3 and 6month kids, husband wife team) and we just moved to Altus…read more We are in search for a church. I am going to yelp about each church in hopes to gives others a look before they leap. Life church meets at 10am. They had Sunday school and child watch for both my kids. Walking in the door EVERYONE was so so nice. Above and beyond nice. They are small enough that everyone could tell we were new. We were greeted, encouraged, and they were happy to see us. Life church is on the charismatic side, so expect to say some "amens" and at the end you put your arms up to receive a blessing. Paster Jan seemed very knowledgeable and was very kind to us after the sermon. He spoke on grace and generosity. He used the message Bible and maybe others. He reminded the congregation to humble themselves, so that Christ love be shown before all else. It was a topical study. The pastor maybe 6times gave himself a pat on the back in order to get the room to say "amen" or to "come alive". It wasn't abnormal for a charismatic church pastor but it did get a little redundant toward the end. During the sermon a lady in the congregation had a vision and she spoke her vision to the room. The music was contemporary, lively, and with four singers and drums, guitarist. They did a great job. The toddler room looked full of fun toys, pictures and because it's also a day care, the walls were very creative. They rotate parents into the room to watch the kids. The parents in there that week said you might take a shift once a month. The under 2 room had just as much fun happening but three times the amount of kids. They requested my diaper bag so if my infant needed a change, they could help. My husband tried putting our infant in the room but I think it might be to busy for him and too soon (motherly paranoia). He obviously lived to see another service. :) They eagerly invited us to the free luncheon for new visitors which happens once a month. If this is your style! I would highly recommend going to this church. They showed a love for humans, I wish more churches had. God calls us to churches for different reasons. I heard once said "if you find the perfect church, don't attend, you might just ruin it." Find the right fit for your family's needs to grow in God.

The teaching is Biblical and is full of practical application. I feel like I get a lot out of it that I can apply to my daily life. The worship is nice- I know the songs. They have made us feel so welcome. We've been going about a month now and plan to make this our new church home. I highly recommend a visit if you're looking for a place to get to know Jesus around some authentic, kind people.

The flier said 500 something are members. They had Sunday school for all ages. It was a big room with toys and there were 3 kids to 2 adults. I like those odds. They were playing play dough. They had a full choir with a band. I couldn't see the band because of the shape of the room and where we were seated. I could see some gray haired gentlemen rocken on some guitars and a 14 year old playing the trumpet. The music was nothing I had heard. It might have been hymns redone to something more contemporary. I didn't even know we were singing "Rock of ages" until I looked at the screen. Their are TV screens placed all over the church for any one in a bad spot or hard of sight. The choir did a song for us and player happened after most speakers. The pastor spoke on David and Goliath. He focused on Davids diligence to serve God and how that needs to be our mind set (even in tithing). We need to put ourselves in Gods favor. He was nice and obviously had a good report with his church regulars. Announcements came at the end, along with four or so prayers. If this sounds like your kind of church, check it out. I am giving every Church I review 4 starts. One less star cause every church needs improvement and four because God leads us where we need to go and who I am to judge.

Nice Catholic Church here in Altus. People were very friendly and was very enjoyable.read more
