Hello. I would like to share a story recently. Quite frankly ai was shocked at the behavior of a…read moremale parishioner. We were at the clothes closet this past Saturday and a purse broke through the plastic bag. A large tote purse so that was put in the car. As we were getting some clothes this male parishioner went up to my husband and said this is your third bag. Now we donate lots of clothes to the church over the past ten years. Recycling is terrific. However I feel that is no parishioners place to say such words to people. They are not his belongings. Nor should he cover them in anyway. They are gifts by the parishioners and others. This could have been potentially humiliating to another individual. No one knows the circumstances people have. And is most ungodly to covet gifts given in charity by others. It just so happened we brought two bags of donations that day and I myself assisted in putting our numerous pairs of shoes. The male parishioner did apologize after he was taken up verbally on the matter. I would hope the church would address this behavior at Sunday worship to remind the workers not to verbally accuse others of unbefitting behavior. I had worked for a local homeless agency in the next town for over ten years and we would never approach a person if we thought they had to much. It wasn't our place. Even morally. We gave out what we had until it was gone. A good reminder is that these are gifts meant for people and to take what they need. It is not a state agency with criteria and restriction. Nor in anyway a place where prior lists for things are needed and paperwork filled out and approved. It a church of giving and the good Lord gives without any scoldings. For shame on this individual.

The warm and welcoming atmosphere is truly special--everyone makes you feel right at home. The pastor is exceptional at capturing your attention, delivering messages that are not only engaging but also deeply rooted in the word of God. His ability to both entertain and enlighten is a rare gift that keeps you connected throughout the service. One of the best parts of this church is the variety of groups you can get involved in. I'm part of the soccer group, and it's been an absolute blast. The people are wonderful, and it really feels like a family both during and after church. The connections I've made here have been invaluable, and I've learned so much through the sermons, growing closer to God in the process. If you're considering whether or not to attend, I wholeheartedly invite you to join us. I hope you'll find a group that resonates with you, and I wish you a blessed day. Thank you for reading!

He also ministered to my family through baby dedications, weddings, baptisms, etc over the past 14 years. You're not going to find a more sincere, consistent and doctrinally sound pastor in the area. He went as far as to stay over a night on a couch with no advanced planning during a family crisis. I would like to also respond to one of the negative comments on this page. The Bible says: Woe to you when all men speak well of you. A few outraged slanderers is par for the course for preaching the gospel in Massachusetts. I would be more concerned for someone's ministry if no one spoke evil of them. It's usually a stamp of a good church to have haters. Ask the Apostle Paul. My advice for the slanderer would be to: a) get born again if you are not, and b) submit to good Godly leadership as we are all commanded to by God. If you do this this you will be more graceful to the flaws you see in others instead of trying to tear people down on yelp reviews. Giving your "pennies" to the local church will become a joy and not a duty. You won't give "reviews" about a church as if it was your local Starbucks as you casually bounce from one to another nitpicking as you go. You will start to see it as a place where people come to meet with a *living* God. Are you telling me that you can't see and celebrate the downright miracle of a Bible-based church in Massachusetts circa 2022 and beyond? Someone who attends a church once a month and tells the pastor what he should be teaching is a walking red flag. My current pastor has endless stories of young prideful men walking in trying to tell him how to do things better while they themselves are doing nothing for the Kingdom and won't lift a finger to help. He calls them fruit inspectors; always examining the fruits of others but never their own. That said I can guarantee you Pastor Dane took your input to prayer. Even if he didn't enact all of your changes immediately upon your request. Here is a question for you: Have you forgiven this pastor and the church members for these perceived faults? Like the old saying goes: if you're looking for the perfect church, forget about it because the moment you walk in it will be imperfect. The church is a hospital for the sick and hurting. That is of course unless you are already well and not in need of a physician. For everyone else please stop by and watch God transform your life as He did mine through this man's ministry.
