First AME Church-Pasadena - Pasadena (CA)

Almira KIR Returned to this, my home church, after a long absence. As always, it is welcoming and a wonderful place to come home to. Most especially hearing the Bible teachings again and the heartfelt prayers, loving songs to God, words from our Pastors, elders, teachers. And yesterday, a new beginning indeed, celebrated with Communion and the humbling washing of the feet, as Lord Jesus expressed to us. A very wonderful Sabbath. Thank you, Father.

Alicia Benn Best place I know to truly be taught the living WORD and feel the presence of all mighty God inhabiting your worship there. Join us!

I. Middleton Entertainment Great people and an excellent place to worship God and fellowship.

Scrunchy Mom I’ve been attending PFC for about a little over a year now. It is a small congregation, but that’s what I love about it. The sense of community and fellowship is strong and Pastors Brian and Carolina are God fearing leaders who focus on the Word. They care about the spiritual growth of children and have created a welcoming space for families.

Marnie R A place of community. This church is very friendly, multi-ethnic and non denominational. Great pastoral staff! Awesome childrens ministry, a thriving youth group, uplifting praise and worship ministry, supportive prayer ministry, active missions team, and cell groups for every night that one can plug in to and be welcomed. We originally found out about this church online and from the 1st Sunday we visited, this church became an extension of our family. What a blessing!

Yasmin Khan Pihop Monthly Meetings are here and loved the lay out of the church....

Susana Edwards The choir is the best I’ve ever heard. The pastors or off the hook and genuinely funny, not like some that try to be. The ambience is so inclusive and the energy is healing. Best church I’ve ever been to. Just wish they could hold sessions mid week as well to help get through the week.

Henry Ho Good place to visit

Tania Gilbert I love my new family. From the first day I stepped foot in the church I felt so much love and compassion. Everyone was/is so friendly. I enjoy Bible study on Tuesday nights when I can make it and Pastor Eld. Terry Turrentine speaks a word every Sunday that leaves me more encouraged and empowered. I enjoy praise and worship and the choir. Its an awesome place to go get spiritually fed.

Linda Spach-Korepta This church is very inclusive and welcoming of all people. The services are also broadcast live, as are some forums (which are typically held before the later morning service), and theres usually a sign-language interpreter at the 10AM service. A portion of most 10AM services also include readings in multiple languages (primarily in English, and Spanish, Mandarin, or Korean), with each of the languages printed in the church weekly bulletin. The choirs and music presentations are wonderful and include opportunities for youth as well as adult participants. Stringently old-fashioned folks may not be thrilled with some aspects of the services, but if you are open minded and willing to accept less "traditional norms" &/or openness, I suggest you attend at least via their YouTube live services.
