This church is a wonderful place for young people and anyone older looking to mentor people. This is not an in and out kind of church, this is a church that wants to involve everyone and make everyone feel known. This church is known for the outreach they do in the community, truly practicing what they preach. This is the church you're looking for if you're looking for raw, messy, true faith. It's not a feel good place, but one will talk about the real issues that we all relate to and need grace for. Everyone here will make you feel welcomed no matter what background you come from.

In the choir, there is a rare voice that brings me to the gates of heaven. Listen very carefully and you will hear him. Very few are blessed with an angelic grace. It's as though he is a vessel used by our Lord. I often wonder what kind of religious practice he has, does he pray a lot, has he done reparation for his sins, has he gone through a purification? I wonder a lot about how he above all was chosen. Is he a Saint? I'm so happy he is blessed. He showers your gifts upon us all. Thank you Lord.

I love that there is a mass in Spanish on Sunday evening at 6:00. All of the priests are religious sisters are fantastic. There is also 24 adoration which is a huge plus. There also sell blessed candles for 5.00. There are usually great talks and fantastic events.

Went to SJ checked out a few then found redemption Here I am able to apply the preaching to my life. I truly learned and understood the meaning of the holly spirt how it lives in me and teaches me. I also learned understand speaking in tongues. When I was going through the hardest time of my Life in and out of the hospital with anxiety the sermons were on point and help guide me with using the keys of the kingdom. I understood what it's is being "yoked" and family curses. I can easily go back and listen to the sermons.

First of all I don't know how exactly I am going to start my review. Well, I would say 16 years ago…read morewe came to this church as "Jubille" Pastor Bernal was the pastor, & We loved it! In 2015 we moved out from the bay area, but everytime we visit bay area my family always come to this church now called "Redemption" I see few concerns with the reviews are about volume of instruments were so loud. We noticed that also, sometimes it's hard to hear the lyrics of the song. My concern is like this, Growing up as a child going to Pentecostal church "speaking in tongue" is not new to me. My first experienced speaking in tongue when I was 12years old it was during a revival night in our church. I also witness pastor Ron speaking in tongue during his sermon. In two sundays not consecutive when I genuinely worship and praised God I was moved with the "holy spirit" and received the gift and started speaking in tongue. Suddenly, I was distracted from my concentrated worship when someone was holding my hands! When I opened my eyes there were like 4-5 people grabbing me and want to bring me somewhere in a small room. I was like, what is going on? I was totally distracted and surprised. One of them keep asking me are you okay? Over and over! Are you scared of the music because it was loud? I was like are these people know what they are doing? I was totally disappointed, my genuine worship to God was stopped. Do these people experience receiving the holy spirit through speaking in tongue? The young pastor keeps talking about holy spirit! But my question is are those people that grabbing me and bring me somewhere are knowledgeable about speaking in tongue and holy spirit? In our church where my family moved to this is normal. The assembly of God, because everyone new and totally understood what the holy spirit can do! I am not doing it on my own, it was the power of God that touched me. This happened last Sunday July 19, 2026. After the serviced my husband was really disappointed of what he was witnessed. Now I am worried, when I come back to this church do I have to hold my prayer, my tears during worship because I am sure those people are going to grab me again! I pray to God that those people will not be ignorant to God's power. They should know the word of God in Acts 2:4, I Corinthians 14:2, and Jude 1:20 Experiencing and receiving the power of the holy spirit is not from my own knowledge, it's God's power that touched me. Hoping and praying that everyone can experience the power of the holy spirit. I pray that they welcome holy spirit in their lives.
