In life there are few times when you can say that a group of people have so impacted your life,…read morethat you truly would not be who you are, had you not spend time together. That's the story of my Centerpoint journey. I came from out of state and did lots of research into churches in the Murrieta/Temecula Valley. Even online, Centerpoint grabbed my heart with a website that is not only easy to navigate and looks good, but clearly displays in text, photo and video, the vibe you can expect from this community of believers. From my very first visit, I was welcomed by peeps who greeted me warmly before I even got to the door, with more friendly faces on the inside too. The musical worship is on point. Expect fun and modern worship sets. You'll worship to music from Hillsong United, Bethel, Jesus Culture, Chris Tomlin, Gungor, etc. I sooooo loooove the musical worship here. We have lights from the stage, but not a light show. Sometimes Pastor John will even lead us in a song. That's it's own treat! =) Even the announcement videos are creatively informative and many times, funny. And when it comes to getting plugged in...there is a bunch to chose from! I got plugged into the men's group right away and have been a regular attender to the church and group for just over two years. I've also been active with Centerpoint missions and singles. I've truly loved and made great friendships in each of the groups I've participated. When it comes to preaching, Pastor John is a passionate, thorough, vulnerable and at times silly. I love that he does the voices of characters from scripture! Haha! After hearing him preach for two years and having several one on one meetings, I can tell you that John has a deep love for God and His people. He has an evangelistic heart and doesn't go one week without giving folks an opportunity to start a personal relationship with Christ. Here are some other things to prayerfully consider: 1. Children's Ministry: My kids are grown. But, my friend's who have kids in the programs, love it. 2. Youth Ministry: Same as above. **Both ministries have new facilities designed just for their age groups and have several full-time staff in each area, with tons of volunteers.** 3. Men's Ministry: I LOVE my brothers! Several groups to chose from. 4. Women's Ministry: Ask for Sharon or Heather. These ladies are such a hoot! =) 5. Service/Missions: Plenty of stuff to be involved in to make a difference in our community and beyond. 6. Staff: Friendly, godly, silly, loving, passionate, fun, Spirit-filled leaders! Why write such a long review? Because finding a community of faith is one of our most important needs and doing life with the Centerpoint family has been one of my life's greatest joys. Whether you're just looking for a church for the holidays or are truly seeking a community to call your own, give Centerpoint a chance. All churches have people that are hurting. Hurt people, hurt people. If you show up and don't feel as warmly greeted as you hoped, then look for someone else who looks new and meet them. You'll both appreciate it! Then, be sure to stop by the Connections Center. They give away free stuff to visitors. =) Thanks for reading and God bless! =)

I love that this church family is friendly. Sometimes the pastor might not have the right message…read morefor you every Sunday, however it's always good to be patient because sometimes everyone has a different feeling in their hearts and I have found this church to be quite inspiring. Sometimes the screen does go through some bible quotes a bit too fast for me. I make sure to get bible app ready incase I do need to pause and reflect. I think those moments are the most meaningful for me because then I can have a personal conversation with God; so don't worry if the pastor doesn't get your message every Sunday, just know that if your intentions are family focused, community friendly, and you come to church with an open mind and an open heart, you will find the right message from God. Psalm 139: David's praying to God and he says, "I am fearfully and wonderfully made." This speaks of the care and attention with which God has made us.

Going from knowing the whole church to trying to find another church to call home was challenging. But since our first visit in 2019, God gave us the peace to know that we'd return again. 2021 came & so did the church hunt. We tried a few but we kept coming back to The Bridge. The more we went, the more it felt like home. Fast forward to today & I've made so many new friends & spiritual sisters. I've grown in my walk, I've relearned new things about the stories and scriptures I'd read my entire life! Pastor Gary & Pastor Zac do such an amazing job at delivering the Word, focusing on the scripture & not sharing their own thoughts and opinions. The youth & children's church are absolutely amazing as well! Pastor Corey & Amber are igniting revival in this generation! I'm a part of the children's church & they are doing such a beautiful job at teaching the little about Jesus! The Bridge is home

Words will never be enough to express the way God saved my life through finding Him and His family here. Grateful beyond words. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I can't actually rate the church, I'm rating for their events center…read more Recently held our football banquet at their events center and was pleasantly surprised. I assumed it would feel like a church but it was quite nice and suited our needs perfectly. The screen and sound system was top notch and there was plenty of space for all the tables, food, photo booth, awards table, etc. Nice venue and was clean and fully functional. Would work very well for large parties, banquets, etc. we had over 120 people for our banquet with room to spare. Parking lot was more than sufficient as well since it was a Saturday evening and most of the other businesses were closed.

5 Stars Orchard…read moreChurch has truly become more than a church to my family -- it has become home. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the love of Christ and the sincerity of the people serving. This is not a "show church." This is a church where the Bible is preached boldly, worship is genuine, and lives are being transformed. The teaching is solid, biblical, and practical -- not watered down, not politically correct, and not focused on entertaining people. It's focused on Jesus, discipleship, and real spiritual growth. The community here is incredible. The men's ministry, Celebrate Recovery, and small group opportunities have been life-changing. There is a true culture of brotherhood, accountability, and encouragement, and you can tell the leadership genuinely cares about people, not just attendance numbers. If you're looking for a church that will challenge you, strengthen you, and point you straight to the Word of God -- Orchard Church is the real deal. Highly recommend. Barnabas

My daughter loves River Kids and I love that the leaders really value teaching her about the things of God and don't just consider it as "babysitting" until the grown folks are finished. If you are looking for a church family that will truly embrace you without conditions (and your family), cultivate a passion in you to experience the presence of God, and challenge you to grow in Him then I highly recommend you come and visit The River Church in Menifee!
