As someone who got church hurt early in my life , and lead astray from church and the Lord for many years, I am here to say this. This church, its members, the community that surrounds it, has truly changed my life. I got invited and decided that on Halloween 3 years ago, I would come check it out. Hearing Pastor Luke’s message that day changed my life. He asked if anyone needed to reconnect with the Lord and before my mind could decide, my body was up at that alter ready to rekindle my love with Jesus. This church has welcomed me , my daughter and my boyfriend with open arms. I have experienced only the love, compassion, and a true fire for the Lord from the members who attend this church. Its kids ministry program is by far the most interactive and personal ministry I have ever had the privilege to not only see through my daughter’s eyes, but also my own. The leaders there truly pour their heart and soul into these kids. Our VBS is out of this world amazing with HUNDREDS in attendance..
Do they ask for a tithe ? Yes , because biblical we are told to do so.. this money goes to help our community, to reach people for the Lord, it goes to community outreach. For example, this April , we are hosting a 30,000 Easter egg drop FREE for the community!! I have also been a recipient of the help they give to the community. I lost a lot of my possessions and Christmas presents for my daughter one year due to a hot water tank leak. This church and its leaders decided to help me and gave me gift cards to go replace those gifts so my daughter could have a great Christmas. This church has NEVER once told me if I don’t tithe , I can’t attend.. This church is a come as you are church. They love you for you !! They love you because we are called to love one another as Jesus loved us.. I honestly couldn’t imagine my life without this church, the friends I’ve made there, the kids ministry leaders who pour into my child weekly..
This church is the definition of living a New Testament Christian life! If you’re looking for a church to attend we would love...
Read moreWithout a shadow of a doubt in my heart, I believe this and know that this Church is doing great things I the eyes of the Lord! Are there some kinks, of course there are, but they're simply growing pains! Pastor Luke is the first pastor since my grandfather, I have given my ear too! To many phoney Churches out there with even more phoney of pastors! This Pastor is a good honest family man, who loves god and loves his congregation!!! If your looking for a church, and maybe you've been to check out a few but you weren't feeling them or the atmosphere! Maybe you felt uncomfortable, most likely judged, as if everyone was casting there gaze your way!! I know that stuff happens at churches ALL OF THE TIME!! I've lived to see it time and time again! Center Branch Church was the first church I've walked into in years, and I felt welcomed, loved, genuine concern for others, but most important, I could feel God in this place of worship, and it was and has been beautiful to see his in all unfolding before my eyes! We're in dark times right now! Even darker than some of you know or care to admit! Now's the time people! It's time to come home to the home of the Lord and of Christ, and to prepare for your eternity! Everyday is an oprtunity to bring the love of Christ to someone, so do your part! God...
Read moreThe people they bring in for these “Revive WV” scams are truly just an insult to God himself. Jesse Duplantis for example… seriously? One quick google shows he is nothing but a scam artist who bought a 54 million dollar jet “because God told him to because Jesus wouldn’t ride a donkey.” Yet the church claims to “wash feet because Jesus did.” ???? The church encourages you to tithe if you want to be a member and then they spend that money on bringing in scam artists instead of helping the community. Not once when I was attending the church was I given the opportunity to do anything that helped our community. They only focused on making the church richer. They are so irresponsible bringing these con artists in and saying it’s under the name of God. I found an article about Evangelist Kofi that said he defiled a woman in Ghana trying to say he was “healing” her. I just pray it was a different man, even though they have the exact same name. I really can’t believe this church is bringing people like that into our small...
