Real Stories

I came back to Creekside because it looked like a fellowship that I could could use my talents to serve God in. The people were welcoming and the pastor seemed to have a genuine concern for everyone. He cheerfully answered my pointed questions about doctrinal issues to my satisfaction and invited me to come back and serve alongside him and the members of Creekside

After visiting Creekside, why did you come back?

We really enjoyed the family atmosphere, and the band! We love ... The real life groups, all the events for the youth, the community involvement. We learned that church can be something wonderful to look forward to. When we go, we feel like we are there with our family. We joined originally to better the lives of our children, but we have bettered our own lives in the process. God has shown us that we are all equal, all one family, searching for the same things in life. We are not judged at Creekside, we feel like we belong, we can show up in shorts and covered in tattoos, and we are welcomed with open arms and open hearts. we have gone on many outings and have made so many wonderful life-long friends. It has truly been a life-changing experience, we hope to share for many years to come!

My family loves the atmosphere, the people, the lessons and the love for God that everyone shows, and especially the childrens ministry and sports ministry.
Melissa - Needville

My wife and I were looking for something that we both enjoyed. Greg seemed to fulfill this along with the birth of a young church. Four years later, I would have to say that we go home every Sunday with a message that opens our eyes and challenges our spiritual minds.Greg also reminds us to keep GOD first in our relationships. Secondly, we both are meeting new friends as we attend our Church functions. I must say, that we both love our Church Family.
Stephen & Mary - Needville

I started going mainly because of my son. I have to say, I enjoy it every Sunday and look forward to it. The people are the nicest ever. I started a relationship with Christ which is something I really never had and I thank my son for the best gift he could have given me.
Christine - Needville

Loved Greg's sermon and everyone was so friendly!
Jodi - Needville

The awesome people at Creekside, the Leadership and the children's ministry. It is so important to have a ministry for the children ... as it is for the adults.
Melissa - Needville

Because God lit a fire under my behind for being away from church too long.

Bryan - Needville

It is just so welcoming, and a really great atmosphere. You feel like everyone wants you there.

Lois - Needville

I love the way Greg preaches the Gospel, and the people.

Mark - Needville

I came back because of the teaching. The message that Greg provides follows the Word. He teaches straight out of the bible. Its not what Greg wants to say, its what does GOD have to say. For me that was refreshing and was what I was seeking. I was tired of going to other churches, looking at a scripture that was quoted, and then wondering if the pastor ever bothered to read what he was preaching on. Greg stays on FIRM theological ground and presents a message that even a middle schooler can understand... at least mine was able to actually understand what Greg was preaching on.

                                                                              Mark - Wharton

We started coming to Creekside Easter Sunday at the urging of my oldest daughter. I didn't want to go but I did. I was raised Catholic and even went to Catholic school, but I never felt a real sense of spirit. It was just the thing you did on Saturday and Sunday.

                                                                              Breck - Needville

We love the atmosphere, the band and music, the people we have met so far and most of all Greg's sermon's.

                                                                              Joey - Damon

We felt welcomed and we liked the feel of the Church. We also enjoyed listening to Greg. It was refreshing, a wonderful change from the traditional Church my husband and I grew up with.

                                                                             Diana - Damon

It was a different church experience.

                                                                             Staton - Guy

I felt God's presence as soon as I entered the church. My daughter loved the children's program and Ashlee L. made her feel extra special. Everybody was so welcoming, and I wanted to be part of this great family!

                                                                            Regina - Needville

Because this is the first church I've found that I like and I love to hear Pastor Greg preach. He explains the Bible so well. I can understand it.

                                                                            Roxie - Boling

I felt accepted upon my first visit.

                                                                            Renee - Needville

Upwards sports for the kiddos!

                                                                            Tanya - Needville

i was well greeted and felt welcomed, wanted there. Made friends and feel like family of Christ.

I was in a hard time in my life and I prayed and prayed for a non-denominational church to come out our way that me, myself and my husband could attend and join without judgement on either part of us or our religion background. One day soon appeared a sign on a telephone pole for a spring service approximately 6 years ago and we went. Mark enjoyed it and I was so happy and thankful to God for bringing Creekside to me and us. We love this church now and Greg and Karen and all the people and this place we call God's house. No matter what... we always can come and belong and feel love. We will always need this church and God! Our church is a real church and real people with real love!!!

I love the energy at Creekside Church. I enjoy going with my family and feeling welcomed by the pastor and the friendly Christians. I feel comfortable and happy at Creekside!!!

Veronica - Rosenberg

First visit today, will be back. Loved it. Even my kids liked it..

I came back, because Creekside is like one big family. It is a loving and caring church and has great things for the kids. And I think Greg is great preacher.

Mary Ellen - West Columbia

I came back the first time because of the friendly atmosphere and the application sermon. I came back the second time and joined because of the "outward" direction of the church pointing to the community and the like-mindedness I had with leadership. Plus my wife said this was a place for her as well.
