I have to admit, I was skeptical to go back here recently. My first experience here was terrible…read more My best friend and I went to a Sunday morning mass here back in 2009 or 2010 when our families were camping at Seacliff State Beach. We wanted to go to mass, but were unprepared since we hadn't planned to, so we only had "beach clothes," shorts and t-shirts. I felt bad, but was always told not to let anything keep you in the way of you and Jesus. After all, John the Baptist wore rags and other great Biblical figures never had nice clothes. And the church is just half a mile from the beach, so I figured they would be more relaxed and understanding. However, when we went we felt completely uncomfortable. Everyone was really dressed up and gave us dirty looks in our shorts and t-shirts. They had greeters, but nobody even greeted us or talked to us. Everyone seemed to know everyone, but not a single person talked to us or made us feel welcome. I've been to many masses at many Catholic churches all over the country and that was honestly the most unwelcome I have EVER felt in a church. Recently, when my family was staying on Seacliff Beach again I decided to give it a second shot since I wanted a Sunday mass. This time, I made sure to wear long pants and went by myself. This time, was a lot better. I was greeted and talked to several times. The priest was great and the whole church seemed like it had a nice parish community. There were a lot of high schoolers involved in the mass, which was great and the homily was very down-to-earth. Totally different experience. The people still seemed a little stuck up and exclusive, obviously everyone knows everybody, and being by myself I definitely felt like an outsider. But there were several older ladies who were really sweet and talked to me, which made it better. Overall, from my two experiences here, Resurrection is a beautiful church in a beautiful location. The parishioners could definitely work on being more welcoming and inclusive. After all, the church is GOD'S HOUSE for ALL PEOPLE, regardless of how they're dressed or how they look. Maybe next time I'm in Aptos on a Sunday, I will try again and hopefully this will have changed.

First let me say how beautiful the area is as well as the building itself. Everyone we came into contact with was super sweet and reached out to introduce themselves as well as get to know you. I absolutely loved the worship experience and Pastor Todd's Easter message was awesome and very inspiring. I like that he taught sound Biblical Principals but also added in real life struggles that we as followers deal with. He didn't sugar coat it and it was relevant and left you thinking long after the sermon. My family and I can't wait to attend another service here!

Rather disgraceful,rude and borderline sacrilegious. With all due respect to your vocation Father.

They have programs that always give back to the community. This would be 5 stars if the parishioners could remember this is the house of God and having regular voice conversations is not nice. The whole church is like a school yard before the mass on Sundays. I like going to church for the silence and peace, sometimes the only place you can find it nowadays. Unless talking regular voice about how you do your house painting right next to someone praying the rosary during lent is encouraged here. Didn't even get the hint when I said "!!Lord Jesus!!" quite loud. But saying "please shut the fuck up" would def not be mistaken for a prayer but that wouldn't be nice back...... Oh I am such a sinner.

This is a small community parish. The people that attend here are so very friendly and welcoming…read more They really care about their friends and neighbors and are always willing to lend a hand to help. During lent which is a time of prayer the church does take a somber tone of respect and people are encouraged to speak quieter so I am really confused with serbelles review. I would never dream of going to a regular mass to pray the rosary as there is a time and place for that and the church is open for silent pray after masses. The parish has many activities including pancake breakfasts and daily donuts and coffee to encourage families to visit before leaving. Fr John does a great job bringing the word of God to life. Family, friends, community is what you will find at San Agustin. We are real people who make real sounds of life and happiness. And isn't the real message to go forth and live the word of Christ?

Upon arriving, we were greeted by several people and introduced to several more. When the service began, we felt the music was worshipful and enthusiastic. The sermon included relevant key verses as well as multi-media aspects. The service was a good length and finished with a cheerful send-off. While moving toward the door we were, again, greeted by many of the members. The pastor even invited us to chat, have coffee or lunch (in the coming week) if we had any questions about the church. We will, DEFINITELY, return to Aptos Christian.

I have attended regularly, I thoroughly enjoy the worship teams musical and spiritual abilities and the verse by verse Bible study. I have a knowledge of God's word and His teachings thanks to Calvary Chapel and the fellowship there. The church is a welcoming, friendly, family of believers.
