Promiseland Church - austin - Austin (TX)

5 /5 June J.J. Tijerina: Met this lady here, at the smaller church aka theater doing one of the Jesus The Miracle productions! I was baptized at the bigger sanctuary. Rosie mentored me little did I know my sister would marry Rosies nephew and they would be married in the same place! I love my memories at this church and will visit again soon!

1 /5 K J: From the daughters of Betty Jacobs My mother Betty A. Jacobs attended your church for over 50 years. Mother tithed and gave offering even before feeding her own family. I remember many dinners of beans and potatos because mother needed to pay her tithes to the church first! Her life was not easy. She Passed away 1/6/2024. It started out with the pastor Schules wife making some very bad assumptions when my mother had Dementia and Alsheimers. Instead of doing this in a private setting she did it at a birthday party. Mother was very ashamed of her diagnosis and begged us not to tell anyone about it. Well, my child was forced to say something when Schules wife was so insistent that my mother was in danger. My sister and I called the church requesting a call back. This call was NEVER returned. Mrs. Schules, If you were so concerned about my mother why did you NOT pick up the phone to check on her? Why did you not get the authorities involved if you really had concerns? My mom was very well taken care of for the past 4 years as her memory faded and didnt always remember who I was or where she was. I called several times requesting prayer. Those calls were never returned either. So, came the time of her death. Moms LAST WISH was to have her service at Promiseland. That was her home for over 50 years and she PAID her dues there. My sister and I could not take a breath trying to get moms service scheduled. Only to be told that Promiseland had to put it on the agenda in their next meeting to decide if they were able to offer the church or services to honor our mother. 12 days after moms death we got a call saying that Promiseland decided that we could use the church to honor mother. We respectfully declined. We never asked for anything FREE. We were very willing to pay the church for the time that we used it. But, a time limit was put to 2 minutes if anyone wanted to share a memory and we would have to turn in what was being said before the service. This is wrong in so many ways. Brother Phillips would have had NO Meeting!! The answer would have been YES right away. He would be ashamed how this family was done by the church. Karen Phillips Thank you for your calls. They meant the world to me. They helped me get through the first few days after moms death. Your parents were loved by mom! Even with her Dementia and Alsheimers she watched the services for your parents online. Thank you for watching moms service. That meant alot to us. Darleen Wirasnik Crews, Susan Wallingsford, Julie Parish, I understand you were not able to travel to West Columbia for moms service. But, we want to thank you for watching it online and showing up to lay her to rest at the cemetery. Mom loved the 3 of you!! Our Angels were Brother and Sister Johnson of Lighthouse UPS Church in West Columbia Texas for calling North Carolina and Praying mommas lasts prayer on this earth with her. They prayed my momma into heaven. They opened their church to us to Honor our mother and they will always be LOVED for that. They even drove to Austin to lay mom to rest in her final resting place. They accepted NO $$!!! This is what a preacher does. This is what a church does. Momma was not even a member there. Dont do this to your members and their families at the hardest time of their lives. You only made this harder on our family and we were NOT able to honor moms last wishes. We tried hard. If you do not allow this post. I will get my message across for my momma!! I will walk back into Promiseland 1 more service and I will be heard! Other than that NONE of our family will ever step foot in that church again!! YOU DID MY MOMMA WRONG and you have alot to learn from BROTHER Kenneth Phillips!! Let him lead you because you are NOT doing it right!! In the end you will answer to god! The family of Betty Jacobs Daughters: Chris Tidwell and Janice McConnell This is being posted on moms facebook because the church has not approved the post on Church Promiseland facebook page.

5 /5 Bob: Pastor Shules is outstanding. It is a Spirit filled Church. Have attended for over 15 years. Was married here, baptized here, and burial service will be held here. Cant say enough about how wonderful services are.

5 /5 Sandra Bocanegra: I came to Promiseland Church when I was only 18 years old! A friend invited me, and I had no idea the wonderful things that would happen to me, in me, and for me at Promiseland! I was lost, empty, and looking for guidance and real love! I found all this and so much more, at Promiseland Church! Ive never been lied to, disappointed, or misguided by the leadership of our church. Instead, I have always found kindness, love, wisdom, and prayers for me & my family there. Yes, the Word of God is taught there, as it is in the Bible! Yes, the Holy Ghost is present at every service, so needs are met, the anointing of God is powerful there! They were so right, repenting, being baptized in the name of Jesus DID wash away my sins and make me new, along with being filled with Gods Spirit! Such a great experience that I can enjoy the lasting results of every day! Critics come and go, they dont change the truth about this place or the wonderful, loving, genuine Christians there- its still alive, still exciting, still beneficial to my soul, and Im not leaving! 45 years there, no reason to go anywhere else! I know Gods best for me,and I love it!
