This is not a hidden fact and an occurrence that deeply hurt the members of the church. We now have a different senior pastor, Matthew Williams, and he along with the elders lead the church with amazing wisdom and godly humility. The atmosphere is open and welcoming and the gospel is put on display each and every week not only from the pulpit but also from the congregation themselves. I would recommend to anyone looking for a God-honoring, doctrine-based, and open armed church. This is our family and we love it there.

I found this church from what only could have been a sign from God. I was struggling at the time…read moretrying to switch job fields to provide for my child as a single mother. One rainy morning, I was on the way to work, replaying my rusty job interview responses that did not result in a job offer. Suddenly, the car in front of me slammed on its brakes. To prevent from hydro planning, I swerved into a turn lane to avoid a collision. I had to turn into Hope's parking lot to reroute back onto Patterson to continue my morning commute to a dead end job. I strongly feel like in this moment, God was leading a lost soul back home. I attended that weekend, and the sermon was everything and more. It completely restructured where I placing my trust and faith with keeping a tight control on my life. I handed it over to him that day, and asked him to reveal his plan. Throughout that week, I heard several people repeat a line I had heard in the sermon the prior Sunday. Everything comes back in a fill circle, just like God's plan. This line kept coming back up in conversations with complete strangers. His plan will be revealed in his own time. It will come back in a full circle, but we will not know, while we are going through it. We just have to trust. One of these moments, occurred at my next job interview and I have been a member with Hope over the past 5 years. It has brought so many blessings since. Now I listen for him to guide me. In addition, they have a wonderful youth program for my son. I met my now spouse and we have a strong faith based relationship where God is the center. The music is amazing. The sermons are very scripture based and provide background context to explain why the bible is written in specific vernacular and the intentional meaning behind it. Things I never was taught growing up in my old church. I just love everything about Hope and agree, they meet you where you are. They are friendly, but not pushy. You can become as involved as you wish, and offer tons of classes and study groups. The pastors tend to rotate during each series. They do each have their own style of preaching and depth, but I recommend giving it 2-3 Sundays to feel it out if you are new, before judging a book by its cover. Not every sermon will hit you and be life changing, but they have a lot of very powerful sermons that have so much depth and leave you wanting more. The only thing is it is a pretty large congregation so it can be hard to get to know the pastors and new faces personally on busy Sundays. I recommend coming to a small group or class and get a chance to speak with them in a smaller setting where's its not as busy. Overall, I can't speak more highly of this home church. It's every thing I had been craving as a young and now older adult. I've grown so much in my faith and very thankful for Hope.

People aren't always excited to see toddlers - especially, and oddly enough, at church - but the people who were working the event and members of the host congregation were huge helps.

Okay, I need to make a confession here. I have been a parishioner for over 20 years, and before…read morethat I was a frequent church hopper. So, of course I am going to rate my parish highly; if I didn't like it, I would have left long ago. I have found the parish to be inclusive, fairly tolerant (although, this IS a Catholic Church!), and responsive to the needs of our local, national, and global communities. St. Edwards is a large Catholic parish, and pretty progressive. We have several ministries for lay involvement, both within the liturgy and within the community. We also have a parish council, an active KoC group, several other social groups, and religious education for all ages. Since the pandemic, we have also streamed two Masses a week, as well as baptisms, funerals, etc. Confession is on Saturday and after the daily Masses. For music, it really depends on the Mass you attend, although most of them use the Gather hymnal as our main source. I don't frequently attend the Saturday vigil Mass, but it's similar to the 7:15 Mass, and generally offers just piano music, a cantor, and no choir. The 8:45 Mass sometimes adds an extra instrument or two, and a choir (or the children's choir) during the school year. The 11:00 Mass has a full choir and usually chamber music, but they again get summers off. The Sunday evening Mass uses electric guitars, drums, and whatnot with a decidedly more modern Christian-rock flavor. Other things: lots of parking, a beautiful-and-peaceful columbarium, people available at Mass to answer questions, an engaged parish staff available during the week, very active youth ministry, and lots of community involvement.

There is ample of parking space for parishioners and visitors, lots of seating, friendly people all around, and its a nice semi-big church. What I loved about this church is that, they ACTUALLY get to hold hands, during the "Our Father" prayer. It is commonly seen in the south, specifically Houston, Texas. But after moving here, people do not hold hands and are to themselves - which is okay, to each their own. I just feel the love from the parishioners here. Con - No crying room. Which was fine by me, I just would hate to be a distraction to other parishioners who may find other kids annoying. Toddlers will be toddlers. We just stayed in the back of the church. If I had to nitpick one little thing, that would be what Roneous E had mentioned on his review. The prayer for the health of Pius Gastronome, that we repeat the first name of the name. I wouldn't go so far to say it was zombie-like or it seemed like a mental derangement, which is untrue. It's very different for me.. and may be for others. Just shrug and move along..
