Marissa Prado We are SO fortunate to have pastor Juan Maldonado, V.F. as our priest at Sagrado Corazon. Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication! It is heartbreaking Father Juan is being moved too soon!!! He made mass so easy to understand and provided life examples in which we were able to connect too. He has done immense work at our beautiful church like no other. He has worked so hard during COVID to continue to have social distancing mass when permitted. He has daily masses, weekly confessions, constant celebrations masses such as: Sagrado Corazon, La Virgen de Guadalupe, etc. I’ve been coming here since a little girl and I could say when he speaks the word of God it truly allows me to feel at peace , loved and forgiven. God thank you for bringing padre Juan to our community we truly saw your presence through him when he spoke. You will be missed!

Mireya Rodriguez Ive been living in Merced over 4 years now and this has been my church. My 2 older kids went to CCD here and the program was wonderful! My 2nd to youngest will be attending this year. The sound system is much better now and the restrooms are clean and large. Everyone in the congregation is friendly and they always have fun things for the kids on holidays like a Easter egg hunt sometimes a BBQ. I really enjoy the statues and the flowers around the church, they are so beautiful and make for beautiful pictures with your family when doing a communion or a special event. They do have a hall and a parish office. Very clean and inviting church. It does get packed on holidays. So I suggest coming a bit early if you want a seat. Today was the blessing of the children on Sunday 4/24/2022 it was so touching watching them all gather around the priest as he playfully sprinkled them with holy water. I wish my children were with me today for that. But I said a prayer for them. God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; enjoying one moment at a time; accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; that I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him forever in the next. Amen

Delores Junior They are friendly make you feel welcome and I am happy there. Pastor Huddleston backs what he say with scripture.

Torrey Moe Gateway Community Church is a special family of believers comprised of many of my friends and dear siblings in Christ. I can honestly encourage seekers and followers of Jesus to gather together her and call this family of believers THEIR VERY OWN family of believers. The local church is a gift God gives each of us, and its our opportunity to either accept this gift or reject it. As a pastor of a very small church in Merced, I deeply appreciate knowing where I can point people looking for a larger church family and context to worship our Risen Lord, Jesus Christ. Gateway is one of those families of believers I can encourage folks on toward seeking out and joining. Al and I have build some friendship as well as Mark and several others. Some of my closest friends including Charles P are also a part of this family. May there be more and more unity among believers in Merced as we TOGETHER follow the Lord Jesus Christ in His mission to rescue sinners from themselves and draw them into His eternal embrace in the true and life-changing story of Jesus death in our place!

Mansfield Robert (Rob) LifePlace church has much to offer the community of Merced and Atwater. Mens, womans, Youth ministry, outdoor evangelism, and the Big Tent Revival. If you are looking for something more than a Sunday experience this is a church to check out. Sunday Service puts Jusus first as we worship the living son of God and His teachings on loving God and His love for humanity. Blessings

Laureen Hogan-Kramer I love this church! The new pastor and his wife are amazing and friendly. The truth of Gods Word is brought into the light here. And you can feel the welcoming love of the believers who worship here. I hope to see you here. God bless you one and all!
