What visitors say

Service times: Sundays at 8am, 9am, and 10:45am. Parking is free and there’s plenty available within the complex. They also offer free coffee, decaf, tea, and water. Inside the building, there’s a café selling pastries and specialty coffee with comfortable seating areas. Restrooms were clean, bright, and spacious with plenty of stalls. The women’s restroom also includes a nursing/changing room for mothers and babies. The worship center itself has very high ceilings and feels bright, airy, clean, and well air-conditioned without being overly cold. The church appears to have a very organized and fully functional volunteer team including worship, musicians, ushers, kids ministry, and even a rotating sign language interpretation team for both worship and sermon. Worship music is modern contemporary Christian music (Elevation Worship, etc.). A nice touch was that after each song, they displayed the song title and credited the artist on screen. They provide printed sermon notes, which helps the congregation stay engaged and take notes during teaching. On the back side are weekly Life Group discussion questions and prayer note sections for the upcoming week. At the end of service, there is a prayer team (around 10 people at the front) available for anyone wanting personal prayer. This week they also launched church merchandise: hats for $20 and t-shirts for $16. The sermon itself was Bible-based and taught in depth. Their Life Groups include categories for adults, marriage & family, men, women, and elders. A couple areas for improvement: - I didn’t notice any traffic coordinators in the parking lot. - The OHP/lyrics coordinator missed several song lyric transitions during worship, which made it harder for some people unfamiliar with the songs to continue singing along smoothly. Overall, the church felt welcoming, organized, and focused on both worship and biblical teaching. This church was recommended to us. The beginning felt like walking into a concert! However, the sermon was very thoroughly done. There are slips of paper to fill in the blanks from the sermon as well. Loving this church. Went there for a memorial service. Very nice and quiet. I was a member of another church in Hercules CA for over 30 years, moved away and thought to myself it's going to be really, REALLY hard to find a church that lives up to the very VERY high standards my previous church (Valley Bible) set for all those years...excellent ministry support in various areas including children's ministry, multicultural members (which to me is what heaven will consist of), very personable pastor who doesn't compromise on God's Word...one who reaches out and touches with genuine caring, members who are warm and genuine as well. When I visited the first time, I was impressed enough to visit again, the second time I was ABLE to check each of the boxes on ALL my desired wants and needs with Creekside Christian Church, oh and I do want to mention their excellent choir which my prior church had as well...very important! My next step is to become a member and make Creekside my new church home, I'm sure my beloved previous pastor Phil Howard would approve! It's almost not fair that I write a review of Creekside since I'm the lead pastor... but CREEKSIDE IS A GREAT CHURCH! While it's big, it still feels like a friendly family. The generosity, kindness, love and willingness to serve at Creekside is as refreshing as it is unique. The atmosphere of worship is awesome and these people are serious about seeking the heart of God! There's something for everyone. You have got to check Creekside out!
