It is a larger…read morechurch than I was used to, but the Word of God came alive for me and would answer questions I didn't even realize I had struggled with. Pastor Damian's teaching style of going thru each verse of the a book of the Bible helps me understand scripture more, especially when I take notes and review them over the week, praying and asking the Lord to speak to my heart thru His Word and help transform my mind. I LOVE the transparency of the Pastors who are teaching, reminding us that they struggle and are still growing to become more like Christ, from the pulpit. We are ALL sinners saved by Grace thru the blood of Jesus. I am also Thankful for the Body of Christ, who attend. People who attend are kind & friendly, but it can be easy to be new, come and go and not feel connected. However when I started serving & getting involved, I began to feel more connected. I started attending the Women's Ministry on Wednesday nights and eventually my husband & I attended the marrieds group. The marrieds group helped me cultivate friendships. I LOVE Serving the Body and Growing in God's Word at Calvary Chapel Modesto. By the way, the Children's Ministry is Dynamic. I was amazed when I helped at VBS and saw all that went into it. It is such a fun week for kids and I wish my kids could have experienced this every summer when they were young. They now help serve at it with me.

This church is the reason I'm no longer a Christian. I attended for years and left feeling far more…read morehurt than supported. I was involved in a situation with someone the church hired that caused real harm. What has stayed with me isn't just what happened (which never should have been overlooked by so many people) but the complete lack of accountability afterward. There was no acknowledgment, no apology, and no indication that anyone cared about the damage that had been done. That silence has stayed with me and made it incredibly difficult to feel safe or welcome in any church or Christian community since. I also came away feeling like the leadership didn't truly know or invest in the people sitting in the pews. A church should be a community where people are known, valued, and cared for, not just faces in a crowd. On top of that, this is an extremely cliquey church. I spent years trying to build friendships and get involved, only to feel invisible. It genuinely felt like I didn't matter to the church or to the people in it. This may not be everyone's experience, but it was mine, and I think it's important to share for those seeking a genuinely safe and attentive faith community. I think I'd be in a completely different place in life if people would have done their part to make me feel welcomed and safe, especially after an incredibly damaging situation that I still haven't recovered from.

On Sept 7, 2025, I arrived early at the Ceres campus to help set up for service. Later that month, on Sept 21, I was told by campus leadership that I was being asked not to attend further and could face trespass if I returned, even though I had not caused any disruption or misconduct. I asked for an impartial review of this decision but have not received one. It has been discouraging after years of faithful attendance and connection to this church. My hope is that leadership will prioritize fairness and transparency when making decisions that affect members' ability to worship in community. No church member should ever fear trespass for showing up to worship.

While the congregation has a strong foundation of longtime members, it's been really special to see more young families joining in recent years--something I think is beautifully supported by the heart and leadership of the pastors. The worship is simple, but truly meaningful--focused, reverent, and uplifting in a way that feels authentic every week. There are so many opportunities to stay connected, whether it's through Bible studies, small groups, or regular events that make it easy to grow in your faith and build real relationships. Our church home became even more meaningful when my husband and I were baptized there in 2024--a moment we'll always cherish. And on top of that, our son attends the preschool, which has been an incredible blessing to our family. The staff is absolutely amazing--caring, attentive, and truly invested in the kids. If you're looking for a church that feels like family, where you can grow spiritually and be genuinely known, this is such a special place.
