Accommodating rooms available for mothers and outstanding children daycare. Inspiring youth program. I’m so elated to be part of such a great Church. May Jesus continue to be famous with his unending love and grace! Luciana (LU)

Craig Smee Great atmosphere. Great teaching. Great Worship. Even though the church is big it does not seem like you are lost in the crowd. This church is definitely making an impact in Monteray County.

Newland Jimenez It’s amazing church, I love going to Compass Church!!! I’m growing on all their activities, more especially from services.

Alaina Musich I had been searching for a new church to call home after losing connection to that habit in life. I knew I wanted a church that was based in foundations of the Bible, that would teach the Word and help me reflect on my person through the teachings of Christ. I am so happy to say I found that at Cypress! I look forward to attending each Sunday, and the opportunities to get deeper into the education and understanding of faith via classes and groups is above and beyond. This is a non-denominational, Bible-based church; the warmth and camaraderie is easy to witness when attending.

Mike Davis True story: Went to this place and was verbally attacked by Brenton Works for the Church doing sound, called me a liar, wolf , false prophet. I was shocked and humiliated. I have been in Ministry for nearly 30years with good reputation I am 62 yrs old I have never seen disrespect from the unbelievers like this!! so I reported to so called pastor he made it seem like it was my fault. Not the LOVE OF JESUS, this guy (pastor) told me to find another church?? on 2nd visit to this place. Is that how you treat visitors?? Not the Spirit of CHRIST. Please ask Jesus where he wants you to go where Jesus is in charge not MAN!!!

TheGood TheEvil I was there at night for the Virgin Mary, and it was full. We had to stand. Fortunately, food and drinks were being sold outside. I got some Tacos, Churros, Bollilo, and Hot Chocolate.

Krystal Magaña I am an alter server here. Everyone is Very welcoming and I feel very comfortable there. will forever be my family ❤️

Mario Joselito Garcia One hour is not enough to savor the musical experience... I wish it was longer...!!

Tammy Jean McCroskey Nice venue. Great music! I personally would prefer a little more stage lighting besides the candlelight to see the musicians better. Good view of stage.

R. Borunda N. Di Angelo The church is banned from the high table Nicholas is the cloud elder high throne table trust angelic above all almighty angelo blessing Borunda ascension blessing angel almighty above all

F. G. Went to celebrate Good Friday Mass. They had chairs set out on the school yard. Very nice, 6 ft. apart, set up. Unfortunately it was very windy and cold.

tania alvarez The Refuge Bible Church is more than just a congregation of people its a family to the lonely and forgotten. Its more than just a building its a home to the lost and broken. Its a place where healing happens and hope is restored.

Rich Man Wow! Friendly people, welcomed with pastries and refreshments. Wonderful worship music, and great, practical message from the pastor. A great place for families and individuals!

Darryl T. after two years being removed from that church, I could confirm that its a cult. look up all the signs. get out as fast as possible and stay away from cult yall

BV Great place to worship . Pastor is awesome. People are so nice. Love the Music .

Fiaola Tufono My home church, so I am biased. Jesus is preached here. Ministries are for the community. Pastor wears Hawaiian shirts. Marina has a small intimate setting as opposed to the traditional worship service of the brick church or the concert style of the main campus. Laid back setting that just wants to introduce you to our Lord Jesus.

Dwight Metcalfe Great service. Great music. Great message.

Alma Garibay The problem was not the staff but the priest. He wanted us to have an orchestra last minute, and since we didn’t. He did not play no music and did our wedding in silence. It was the worst wedding. Any couples looking for a church should think about it before paying $500 for a mass.

Doug Conte Review for Madonna Del Sasso: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Its been a remarkable journey seeing our son transition into his second year at Madonna Del Sasso. From day one, we could immediately discern that this isnt just any ordinary school, but a haven for young minds eager to explore, learn, and grow. The dedication of the staff and the meticulousness in which they approach every childs individual needs is genuinely commendable. The curriculum is thoughtfully crafted to engage children in holistic learning experiences. From mathematics to the arts, there is a beautiful balance ensuring that every student can shine in their own unique way. Beyond the academic rigor, we truly appreciate the schools commitment to character education. Our son is not only coming home with newfound knowledge but also with values and experiences that will shape him into a responsible and empathetic individual. Facilities and resources are top-notch, ensuring that every student has access to the tools they need to succeed. Moreover, the school environment radiates warmth, safety, and inclusivity. The sense of community here is palpable, with parents, teachers, and students coming together to celebrate milestones, support one another, and share in the joy of learning. We genuinely feel fortunate to have found Madonna Del Sasso for our sons formative years. Watching him blossom, brimming with excitement about his school day, and witnessing his intellectual and personal growth has been nothing short of a blessing. We couldnt recommend this school enough to parents seeking an enriching, nurturing, and exceptional educational experience for their child. Thank you to the entire team at Madonna Del Sasso for making our sons first grade unforgettable!

carlotta davis I was greeted by Caroline I felt very welcomed got a great message from God.

Patricia Carter Life Changing...hands on Ministry for all ages!

Jose Arellano Saint Paul Episcopal Church is a place to start your path toward Jesus. It is a place to find great people from the Anglo and Hispanic communities. It is a place to health. It is a place to stay in touch with your roots and most importantly it is a place to celebrate your heritage and your traditions. Join us for a mass in Inglish on Sundays at 9 am, and in Spanish at 12:00 pm. Dont miss out. Jesus is waiting for you.

Adela Carrillo Pastor/priest is gentle, considerate, and cheeringly professional.

E Garcia Father Antonio is wonderful. Mass is to the point and at times less than an hour. Great for kids si ce sometimes they cant sit still. Offers outdoor seating for those still worried about being around too many people.

GG Lopez Beautiful church. Always has been.

Eduardo If everything went right, my small nation couldve been a famous or independent country or state if everything went well, but it failed to be one :(

Lourdes Delgado It is a blessing to attend this church, our pasture Robert Fort and his family is a blessing for us and for all those who attend the meetings, we feel a peace that surpasses all understanding and the preachings are very blessed, I invite you to that they visit us and listen to the word of God. John 3:16.

Freda Choy Beautiful organ and stained glass windows brighten its clean interior;

David Criswell They serve hot meals. Its great when you have very little and need food and clothing. They have socks to give to out to the less fortunate and a shopping close full of clothing for people. They also hold meets like AA, NA. They are a place for people to get help.
