It was originally formed after a hurricane destroyed three churches (Baptist, Catholic, Methodist) in the 1930s. Forming together after the disaster the churches decided to build ONE church for the community. The first official service was held on October 8, 1950 in the original chapel, built by its members. The church has been faithfully serving the community ever since and has grown to include a vibrant ministries to the community and a DCF preschool which is top-notch. Highly recommend it for all ages!

To touch something real…read more We all want to touch something real, and perhaps that is our only real, life purpose, to touch something real. And maybe that's what the god man foreshadows in the eternity book when he speaks of a certain woman whose plea was, "If I may just touch His garment, I shall be healed." (NT/M9:21 from the eternity book) 2,000 years ago (give or take 100 tears), a human woman uttered that plea. That's dusty and crusty. A human woman wanted and needed to touch something real, and we want to touch something real too. Ultimately, there is only one really real, and that really real is eternity - which we can reach through the god man. May we all seek and find the only thing in this world that is really real - the eternal god man.

Wow! Love this church!!! I have been to many churches and this church is ALIVE!!!…read more The worship is so amazing!!! The kids are part of worship which in my opinion is integral.

What a beautiful church with an architectural cruciform style creating a cross right in the middle…read moreof the main nave typical of Judeo Christian churches with the altar oriented on the Eastern end. This is only the second church i come across with wood paneling on the ceilings and that is worth every penny because the acoustics are incredible perfect, no matter where you are standing the echo and reverberation are minimized, I was able to understand every single word during the beautiful homily. I am hard of hearing and there is nothing more frustrating than not being able to decipher what the priest is saying. Kudos to the architect and designer of this beautiful building The Holy Saturday homily was a bit long but understandable due to the readings and baptism of about 10 new converts who took the dunking in holy water in the fountain by the main entrance The homily included a bonfire that was lit just outside the atrium and we all went out with a candle in hand, the fire simbolices the light of Christ winning over the darkness of sin. After a brief prayer to thank the Lord for the Resurrection of Christ we all walked back into with our lit candles, symbol of new light of the world; shortly after that the lights in the church were turned back on. The bonfire was a first for us, beautiful ceremony in a beautiful church and a happy Easter service.

How do I know? I was angry with him, and I kinda called him out. And being god, he could have taken me out, but he didn't. Instead, he snuck up on me. In the midst of my anger with him, I decided to go to beach church again - now that it's back. But I didn't expect much. Going last Sunday felt like more of an obligation than a desire. But I went anyway. Church bulletin in hand, I sat my beach chair away from everyone - in the white sand. I didn't want to be near or talk to those people. And as the worship leader sang, I didn't sing along. I was here out of obligation, not desire And as the preacher began to speak, I looked at the bulletin for the first time, and a chill ran down my spine. Why the chill? The message was about having confidence in god - right in the midst of me losing confidence in him. I didn't see that coming. But surprised, I listened, and it seemed that god was talking only to me. And I cried! Good thing I sat off by myself. Thank you, god, for your tender mercy with me and reminding me that you are near. And thanks to Hope on the Beach Church for being god's mouthpiece that day.

He asked me to step out and said my only option was childcare or watch the service from the other room. This raises many red flags and is a huge problem in churches today, not only for children but people with distracting disabilities as well. Glad it happened early on so that I didn't waste any more time at this church.

My family has been attending Apostles for about nine months and we love it here for many reason!…read moreFirst of all, as a mama I really appreciate the love and care that Ashley, the children's director, has put into planning the nursery, and I look forward to having my little one be a part of the children's programming as he grows older. As an Anglican, I love celebrating together each week with the liturgy, prayers and Eucharist. Father John and Father Scott are wonderful, warm people who have such a depth of knowledge about church history and love of the scripture. Chad and the music team do a beautiful job blending contemporary music and traditional Christian hymns, and it's my humble opinion that our music is probably some of the best around. Finally, maybe most improbably, the community of people here are incredibly warm and welcoming. We felt right at home shortly after arriving and have really enjoyed getting to know the community. After a season of spiritual dryness, Apostles has been a refreshing and encouraging place to land.
