In my humble lay person opinion, I find immense distaste that this parish, with 4 priests, only…read moreconducts confession/reconciliation for a short window of time on Saturday mornings. In confession I asked the priest why they don't do confession before mass on Sundays, despite having 4 priests, and his response was disheartening. I pray that the church focuses more on saving souls, which is done in large part by confession.

However, their Girls Varsity Basketball program is not that great. Their main focus is typically on specific player(s) to grow. If your child was not getting playing time in public school bring them here and if you are a type of parent who has time to be in coaches' face all the time, then your child will be awarded a "consolation" playing time. This is a perfect place for your child and your family. But if sports TRULY matters to your child while attending high school, then, you may want to consider exploring different school where she can grow, develop, and be successful! As of right now, their Boys Varsity Basketball program is excellent - from players' development to training to coaching! This is the best time to join your athlete student!

This one guy (pretty sure he had a position in the church) got up on stage and said "You can not be a Christian if you do not get involved.) I just feel this was inappropriate for the people who do not know the Bible. Very misleading. Please don't reply with some kind of excuse like I misunderstood. I did not. I heard what I heard. Just be careful in the words you choose to use. I wish I knew who it was who made this statement. Please do not respond to this review at all. I don't need apologies or explanations. Just wanted to let you know.​​​

I came again because 1. I LOVE THE BAND. It's like going to a concert, and I get hype. They have lyrics on the screen so it's easy to quickly learn the songs. The pastor is pretty dope, everything is pretty relatable, and you can find something that touches you even if you aren't religious. It's a cool church, which I don't think I'd have describle a church as "cool". But for real tho, when is the band dropping an album? I need that asap.

Controlling and Communism at ASBC? I have attended ASBC for almost 30 years. There have been 4…read morepastors over that time. I have respected and trusted the former ones biblically. The current one has a style of leadership that has made me pause and wonder if it is a fit nor me now. Covid has affected every church, ASBC was one of the first to reopen in the area over 1 year ago, but with many restrictions. They have loosened up a little but still seem to have many state restrictions that have no medical or health benefits. Other changes was sneaked in and have disturbed me. It may be just me. 1. Bible study life groups are an important core of ASBC. It is a way to get to know a small group in a large group. When the pastor came about 6 years ago, he offered the option for the Life Groups to pick our own Bible Study Class info and books or use a study he chose. Option seems good. The pastor started a new about 2 year sermon study in Jan 2021. He now changed the Life Groups to be required to study only based on his sermon that week. He also provided the information to study that he wrote. No free choice in that anymore. (His indoctrination?) 2. Also tithing and Giving is very important to ASBC. In the past, You could tithe to any of the missions, pantry for the needy or regular church expenses you chose. I was unhappy to find out recently that the only option offered for donations is to the "Forward" program started about 2 years ago. (I didn't understand how that came about and my questions about that were ignored). I guess the pastor decides where your $ goes. That sounds a little too communism/ socialism than I prefer. I have decide to give the $ I would be giving to ASBC, to other Christian Organizations with common goals and beliefs. I like to be able to decide this for myself and not give that decision to others.

We've had great opportunities to see our daughter perform in plays and get all the pictures you keep forever. We enjoy little events like the Thanksgiving Feast when the parents come in and eat with the students. It's also a great opportunity to meet the other parents and talk with the teachers and staff. The school is very secure and I would recommend it highly to any parents looking for a great preschool for their children!

If that works for your schedule, I highly recommend it. She absolutely loved it. She worshiped the ground her teacher, Mrs. Johnson, walked on. I'm not religious, but I did go to Episcopal Church as a kid, which is partly why checked this place out at first. The day school is just a really nice, nurturing environment--both physically and in terms of the teachers and the activities and everything. They get to do music, which is great. At the end of the year (or maybe it was Christmas, I can't remember) they put on a little show where the music teacher plays piano and the kids sing songs and perform. It was freakin' adorable.

My niece attended this school as a 3 and 4 year old student. She developed and grew a lot over the…read morecouple of years she was there. The programs and teachers are very nice, my niece loved going to school everyday. The reason I only give this school 3 stars is due to the office staff. My family was referred to this school by a family very close to ours who had sent all her children there in the past. We were warned that Janet Brown kind of came off as rude to some people but to let it go because it probably wasn't intentional. That was true, on multiple occasions she came off as very rude... And it was let go multiple times, but eventually it wasn't possible. She is very defensive which makes expressing any personal concern with her very uncomfortable. If you are not a two parent family, with a normal schedule and you don't appear to be well established then you will be treated that way... The school alienated my sister and I based on the fact that we appeared younger than most of the parents regardless of how successful and responsible we were and because it was just us taking care of the child instead of a mother and father. Every family it seemed had a relationship with the staff at the school, one that was approached and developed by the staff, except for my sister and I. I thank God every day that my niece never expressed anything about her being mistreated or alienated, as far as we know she was treated equally and that is all that ultimately mattered at the end of the day.

Gotta visit! I'm hooked!…read more This is a place where what you see is what you get, which is very genuinely friendly people who are eager to meet you and get to know you. The Pastor is someone you can talk to and makes himself available no matter who you are and what you've been through, he's always a phone call away and mostly always picks up and ready to help at a moments notice. I can say this because I've known the man for more than 13 years, and he's as genuine today as he was when i first met him. When our family first visited the church I was a young and inexperienced Father and Husband with a bad track record. I was received with gracious open arms by the church members and the Pastor, even throughout the years as I've made mistakes at times I still received the same Love and Help as when i first visited the church. Like I said, you've gotta visit, but you've gotta see it yourself to Believe it. P.S. They've got really awesome Live drams and concerts every other Saturday which are fun for the whole family.
