I have been a member for nearly 20 years, and have made lasting friendships.

A great community, that is growing! https://www.melroseuu.org/

But it is the members that make it special. They are warm and welcoming, encouraging newcomers to come back without making them feel pressured, making them feel like family without making them feel judged. It has been my church for years so I might be bias but I believe that if you are looking for a group of God-loving people to worship and fellowship with you won't go wrong with Forestdale.

There are two morning services at 8:30 and 11am along with Bible Studies in the summer, Sunday School for children and adults, nursery during the service and Fellowships between services which is spent catching up with each other, meeting new faces, and relaxing with a cup of coffee. The sermons, songs and scripture are one of the many reasons I love Forestdale so much. You will always feel welcomed when walking into Forestdale Community Church and leave not only feeling loved but knowing your faith and love for God has grown during your time here.

Finding The Potter's House has been one of the biggest blessings in my life. Pastor Gash's teaching…read morehas challenged me to grow deeper in my faith, and being baptized here made this church feel even more like home. I recently attended a Potter's House conference on the opposite side of the country (Oregon) and when you come to The Potter's House, you become part of not just a church, but an awesome fellowship, of believers who lift each other up. These people are bringing people to Jesus. What keeps me coming back is the genuine community and the way this church encourages real spiritual growth. One of the biggest changes in my life has been attending morning prayer during the week (and sometimes Saturdays). Making that part of my routine has completely changed my walk with Christ and strengthened my relationship with Jesus. Beyond Sunday service, there are Bible studies, Sunday school for adults and children, opportunities to serve, and many ways to keep growing in your faith. If you're looking for a church that will love you, challenge you, and help you build a real relationship with Jesus Christ, I highly recommend The Potter's House.

I saw a couple reviews that mentioned the church's Southern Baptist Convention roots and just…read morewanted to speak to that. I understand the resistance, truly I do. The past year that I have been in Boston has involved a lot of researching denominations and trying to understand them and the SBC certainly is a hard one to grapple with for many. But no matter how many times I've ventured elsewhere, I *always* come back to Hope Fellowship. Mostly, that is because I'm convinced that Hope Fellowship is led by godly, prayerful people and that the Spirit is bearing fruit here. Again, trust me, I get the doctrinal disputes and I struggle with the SBC on certain issues. At Hope, the leadership doesn't shy from hard topics but it also doesn't give black-and-white, pre-scripted answers; nor does it give wishy-washy, ungrounded ones. I've only ever seen Hope leadership tackle highly sensitive subjects in a nuanced, thoughtful, and humble way. Even if you don't agree 100%, you know you can share your perspective with leadership and be heard and loved. Furthermore, personally, I've found that this church has a refreshing way of incorporating confession and also rejoicing in God's mercy. During each service we have a call-and-response of a Psalm and then a prayer of confession and then a passage reminding us of how we have been redeemed from that sin. It's so balanced and thoughtful and, to me, really models what we see throughout Acts as people come to faith--a rhythm of repentance and joyfully accepting God's grace. If you are looking for a church that does not shy from tough questions and that will continually extend the love of Christ to you and motivate you to do the same for others, this place does that.
