How to love our neighbors is always part of the sermon and James and Kody are extremely approachable. The focus is on how to be a joyful follower of Jesus without using fear and intimidation. I love the way they teach the meaning of words we've heard all of our life, such as "sin" and " repentance." I've learned that these are not scary words and that all of us sin and repent. James and Kody also teach us what the Scriptures mean while giving a history of what was happening in the day the stories occurred. On top of teaching, they work intentionally hard to make sure our church and church body are safe for visitors as well as each other. We recently had an art class and will be holding other classes for visitors to enjoy without feeling like we have an agenda. We have a growing kids program with VBS as well as marriage, finance and Neighbor Groups. MOPS is also a popular program at our church. If you want to go to a church where you feel welcomed without being pressured while enjoying community and church events, this is a great place to explore. If you want to laugh and have fun, come visit us. If you want to learn about Jesus and a God who loves you unconditionally, this is also the place for you.

I can honestly say that I've never attending another church with such a strong spiritual emphasis that seemed so genuinely interested in whole and in part in helping its members develop as spiritual humans, in whatever path they set for themselves. The best part of the services in these 3 months has EASILY been the kids books - each service a different kids book is read to the congregation before the little ones are sent off, and the content of the books is so amazing I've started buying the books to share with others regularly. Thank you, KUUF for offering a home to safely explore my (our) spirituality that FEELS like belonging, acceptance, encouragement and most of all... LOVE. 9/2023 We were so welcomed on our first day, folks seemed generally interested in who we were and we were asked 'did you find what you were looking for'. Thank you so much, Kitsap UUF.

My wife and I have been looking for a "spiritual outlet" for several years and I'm pretty sure we've found it in the Kitsap Unitarian Universalist Fellowship today. I was raised Roman Catholic with nuns in habits and a strict Irish Priest - the whole stereotype Catholic thing. I never felt right being in a Catholic church and had a real hard time with all the dogma that comes with that religion. It just never really "did the job it was supposed to do" for me. In the early 80s I started to consider Judaism, and in 2002 converted to Reform Judaism and that worked for me for over 10 years until it started feeling just like Catholicism in many ways all over again. Despite not as much dogma as Christianity, I never really felt like I fit in or that Judaism truly fit me. It just stopped "doing the job it was supposed to do" for me. I phrase it this way based on the sermon I heard this morning from Rev. Jessica Star Rockers entitled "Letting Go of God". She spoke as if the words were aimed right at me - telling us how in her own spiritual journey, the "old Gods just weren't doing the job anymore" and I really connected to that in such a direct way. I've tried "alternatives to the old churches" before - but one of them felt no compunction about bringing politics into the sermon in a big way, even using names of elected leaders. Political tensions should NOT be a part of a spiritual service. I want to have an experience to ESCAPE that stuff and focus on inner peace and being with others wanting the same. Another church we tried that proclaimed to be non-denominational ended up preaching about how Jesus Christ is this that and the other and took on a very Christian stance - a god that to me "no longer did the job for me". It felt very denominational. But Kitsap UU is NOTHING like that, at least based on our experience there this morning. We both felt warmly welcomed, not "smothered in attention" as newcomers often are or enduring stares from longtime members at the "new people". We were welcomed without any strings. The music was wonderful, with a really pretty trumpet piece by Mike the music director. There was a very entertaining "Children's Story" segment on the physics of energy, complete with a pendulum demo by a scientist member - all to equate laws of the physics of energy to our spiritual energy. It was really cool! The views out the sanctuary windows are inspiring just by themselves - moss-draped ancient trees flowing down a deep wooded ravine, with nothing but nature to see. I spent the "moment of silence" (more like minutes!) just contemplating the quiet of the surroundings on a beautiful sunny morning. Knock on wood, but we plan to make this our "spiritual home" at least once a month and get to know more people as we get more acquainted with the church, the people, and the experience. But for now, if you're looking for a place to feel welcomed no matter who you are or what your background is or what you believe, this well could be that place.

5 stars - A Bible-first church that feels like family (I'm closer to the people of this church than…read moresome of my own family!) First question when searching for a church: Does it follow the Bible above tradition? YES. Heritage Pentecostal of Tacoma puts Scripture front and center--every sermon, every song, every decision. No watered-down messages or trendy gimmicks; just the uncompromised Word of God preached with boldness and love. The Pastor is truly anointed, filled with the Holy Ghost, and loves the people like his own family. He knows your name, prays over your struggles, and celebrates your victories. The associate ministers and elders follow suit--humble servants who live what they teach. This is a vibrant, diverse church bursting with young families, teens, kids, singles, and seniors from every background. You'll see every generation worshipping together. The youth group is tightknit, woven together with true love of Jesus. The children's Sunday School is a highlight: age-graded classes, engaging lessons, and teachers who pray over every child by name. Adult Sunday school is refreshing and relevant. Worship is genuine and dynamic! Not performance, but heartfelt ... the congregation sings loud, and the presence of God shows up. Expect clapping, raised hands, tears, and shouts of "Amen!"--all grounded in Scripture. Outreach is constant: we hand out cards everywhere and sometimes people tell us, "This is the third card I've been given to this church!" New here? You'll be greeted with genuine smiles, and have a hard time leaving without a lot of names to remember, but mostly a feeling of belonging and conviction working on bringing you back to the next service. Service times: Sunday - 10:30 (Bible Study for all ages) | 1 PM (Worship Service) Tuesdays & Thursdays (Midweek Bible study/worship - prayer, worship, Bible true teaching and preaching) If you want a church that loves Jesus, loves people, and lives the Bible out loud--come as you are. You'll leave changed!
