I even asked and he just said there is usually seats over there and pointed. Every row people were seating at the end seats and wouldn't budge to get pass them. Not one person said good morning. Only during meet and greet did the people around me said hello. On another note, the message was very good and kept my attention.

God has changed me , rocked me , transformed me and keeps doing his good work in me. I started coming here in 2013- I still absolutely love this church after 5 years. Here I am ....the sermons, pastors, the worship team, the atmosphere, they are all about prayer, fasting which is so powerful, being unified and they care about the members. I love that they not only have Sunday services, but everyday of the week something is always going on... Woman classes, men, couple, youth camps and more. I enjoy the married/ couple meetings on Sundays at 9 am "Family Strong" awesome Pastor Tom teaches it. love attending the services and classes when I am visiting family in The Modesto area. The Holy Spirit Rocks me each time I come! Even when I watch on Youtube or watch the channel on stream TV. Well, with that said No other church is like TheHouseModesto. I would love to live closer but I am here in San Jose. Awesome church, so blessed I found this church!

It doesn't matter if you attend the church for years and give money in the offering plate.

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.
