Ben Blythe We absolutely love this church. The community is incredible. Both of our boys are loved on each Sunday and look forward to their mornings with the Athens Church volunteers. Our oldest who has autism is cared for by a great group of leaders who are able to adapt to his needs and make each Sunday a great experience for him.

Alex Cash If you are hungry for the Lord and seek the riches in the Word of God, you need to fellowship with this group of believers! They have a dedicated Bible study for local students that meets on the UGA campus!

Amanda B. Mayweather Love it! Very friendly and inviting. Ive been going since December and Ive been consistently going since. My 8-year-old daughter loves the Childrens program. She is excited every week to attend. I love that for her! My wife and I have invited multiple friends and family members.

B Gary (G) I love NCWC, Pastor David always has a good message to bring before the church, he is a understanding person and has time to listen to what you have to say, or what youre going through . Pastor David the whole church family loves you, keep bringing the word for those that are thirsty for the word. Great job

Sheila Green Friendly, Christ center people. Plenty of parking. Wonderful praise and worship team.

S H This is a wonderful and welcoming church. Lots of diversity. Pastor David speaks truth in love. They really believe in teaching people about the word of God and being able to share it with others with love and clarity. There’s something for everyone here.

John Eyler Not a bad place to worship. I kept getting the vibe that this is one of those churches you go to rub elbows with politicians and big-wigs, but the people were friendly enough. If you identify as a man, Id recommend a bright pink tie for service. They just seemed to do that a lot, and when in Rome...

Emilie I started going to this church regularly during the peak of the pandemic in 2020. They were meeting under a tent and requiring masks as a Covid precaution, as well as live-streaming the service. For a long time, I was one of the streamers, and didnt go in person. Once I was fully vaccinated, I began attending in person (my own decision - vaccination is not required to attend Calvary!). Now we meet inside, and masks are no longer required (but they are welcomed if you choose to wear one - I frequently do so). In the building or under the tent, this church has a vibrant glow about it, and you can tell its just somehow a little more alive than many other churches you may have been to in the past. Im a huge fan of the relaxed, family feel of this church, the involvement in the community, and of the diversity within the doors. You can come to Calvary wearing whatever you want - traditional clothes from your home country, a suit or dress, or jeans and a t-shirt. Youll be surrounded by a congregation that is diverse in age, race, and nationality. Ive never seen anyone look out of place. Pastor Thomas preaches the truth from Scripture in a relatable way that is honest, down to earth, and incredibly genuine about the human struggles we all go through and how walking with Jesus should impact our daily lives. And then Calvary works together to put this into practice and to encourage service within the church and in the community itself. I could go on, but it would be best if you just experienced Calvary for yourself. Check the website for current service times, and come visit us! If youre not up to in-person visits, maybe tune in to our livestream. Wed be more than happy to have you.

Susie Thrasher My family attended Christmas Eve services at Saint Stephen’s. It was so inspirational and beautiful we were overwhelmed. The choir did a magnificent job. The Eucharist was delivered in a reverent and meaningful way. Thank you St Stephen’s family

Amanda Wise Great church to go to if you’re looking to build a strong relationship with Christ. Everything they preach comes from the Bible, and they always have lots of events going on to get/stay involved! They’re very welcoming of anyone and there’s an especially large amounts of teens/young adults (12-35) that are involved and seem excited to live for God. Definitely recommend Athens Victory Chapel for anyone from any background!

Julia Wilkes Its been a few years since Ive been here (visiting, as I am not Christian), but wanted to mention that the amount of antisemitism I witnessed while attending was horrible. Especially from Pastor Lee.

Heather Moore Most amazing church I mean family I could ever ask for t they love me unconditionally and they treat me like they have known me for ever and I love this family church so much

Bob Capes Right now I feel like a long time orphan who just got adopted by an awesome loving family! Cant wait till next Sunday! My son, who normally doesnt enjoy going to church, said it best as we walked out after our first visit today. We just found our new church!

Andrew Gross This is a fantastic church with a very sound doctrine. If you Are looking for something more traditional and less of what the mega churches have the offer, this is the perfect place for you. They greeted me warmly when I arrived. They introduced themselves. They helped me get involved with community groups that they had to offer. The music was intimate and sweet. The pastor who preached did a fantastic job keeping the congregation interested. I will continue to return to this place because it is truly what my heart needed.

Titus My first time being in the newer "church", which didnt resemble a church, more like a school auditorium. The grounds are quite sad as well, lacking decent landscaping. The service didnt even feel like a Catholic Church Service, though the message was clear.. I doubt I will be back.

Ralph Jackson A very friendly group of people. The church is passionate about its mission.

Carlie Shaw Grateful to find a church with such kind, humble, and authentic people from members to leadership. Serving the downtown Athens community in so many ways and providing opportunities for members to grow in faith, connect and fellowship. The choir is such a blessing and the pastoral leadership is inspirational from week to week. If youre looking for a new church home, you will be welcomed here!

Phillips Karen The people here are very warm and accepting. The childrens ministry is fantastic. Weve made many good friends here. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a moderate church that has women in leadership roles.
