We are looking forward to sharing the $4,000,000 gift we received with you. The facility is looking great and is unlike any church I have ever been to before. The entrance opens up to a large, open foyer with a coffee bar and meeting area. The foyer also opens up to the wide children’s hallway. If you wonder where your children ran off to, they’re probably over on the fun ship or in the game room. The main auditorium where we have the main service feels both warmly inviting and modern. While we didn’t go all out and over-spend on a ton of high tech lights and special effects, we have just what we need.
I can’t wait to share this amazing gift with you.
Please thank your staff and crewworkers for showing teamwork that is the key I really appriciate all the love I was shown that means alot to me I’m am at peace.All day I was working on my knees praying that the LORD BLESS us to meet your deadline so I stayed motivated because you all are some wonedrful people be bless and GOD BLESS…….
As as first-time visitor to Essential Church I have to agree with the post and say you guys did a great job! It was the first time I have left my 6-month old daughter with anyone… yes ANYONE! And I felt so comfortable. The nursery workers were very nice and caring. And I really enjoyed the sermon and the message. It spoke to my heart… can’t wait to visit again. I love that it wasn’t “perfect”!
We live next to your church and went there when it first opened and was Salem Baptist and Pastor Rob Johnson was there. In fact,my husband and I were the first to have a wedding there. We are attending a different church now-but I have been concerned and sorry not to see anyone at the church for numerous months. Then I began seeing your sign and wondered what was happening. Today when I came home from my church service I was SO EXCITED to see the church parking lot full and cars even parked on the street. Glory to God! To see it full again. I haven’t seen it like that for almost 13 or 14 years. Still I was concerned until I read “essential beliefs”. As long as you follow the things you say you believe-I pray God’s blessings on your church and annointing of the Holy Spirit!.
DeShawn, Thank you for all your hard work to make the place look great. I couldn’t agree more with what you said about the teamwork and atmosphere at Essential.
Ashley, I’ll make sure that our children’s team sees your comment. They work really hard at making the children’s area a safe, fun environment for children to learn. Thanks also for the patience as we work out all the bugs.
Laura,
Thank you for the encouraging words. I’m sure there are many people in our community that have grown closer to God at the Ware Neck facility. Our hope is to continue that legacy. I do wish you and Pastor Rob Johnson had built a bigger worship center and parking lot back then. (Just kidding) The facility is great and we’ll find a way to maximize it in order to make Jesus famous in our community.
