Relocating...looking for a church
 

There is a possibility that we could be relocating to the Myrtle Beach, SC area in the near future. I have been doing some searches on the internet and I am trying to find a good church to go to.
By good I mean a loving, friendly people, that Believe the Bible and teach One God, Baptism in Jesus Name and the infilling of the Holy Ghost.
I do not wish to go to a judgmental church that has a list of rules that you must adhere to before they welcome you into their circle of the Saved. Not trying to controversial, just don't want to waste my time. :blah
We are going down in September for about 8 days to scout some things out, I would like to visit some churches while we are there. All help is appreciated and if the church has a web site that would be helpful too.

Very good, caring people pastoring this church - http://www.clcmyrtlebeach.org/

Very moderate by UPCI terms. Keep platform standards but seemingly lenient on beach attire and television.

Thank you.:thumbsup

I had seen this website, but was concerned because they were UPC.
We have not had very good experiences with that organization here in Tn.
But we may give them a visit.

never assume or judge a church because of a stereotype.

SK, last I heard was still bi-vocational. He is a successful, hard working and savvy entrepreneur that has put a lot his own money into the church. I believe they also run a thrift shop, if I remember correctly, that has been a great tool in helping the community and reaching new converts.

Dee, his wife, comes from a very good family also.

Your right, I shouldn't judge the church by the ones we have had experiences with. I should just visit and see for myself. Thank you:smack

Sounds PC and popular but give me a break!! We all do this everyday. Judgement (discrimination) is Ok, based on your past experience, as long as you make exceptions for the possibility that one is different from the pack. This ONE upc church may be a good one, whereas by your experience all the ones in TN were not. ? You are going to "give them a chance" cool. It is only when discrimination is based on prejudice it is evil and small minded.

Going into Myrtle on the right side of the main hwy, there is a little white church with "apostolic and 2:38" on the sign I always wanted to visit there, but when I am in Myrtle I have sand and sun on my mind, but if I lived there I would try the church.

Would you visit a Unitarian Universalist church to see for yourself? :heeheehee

Re: Relocating...looking for a church
 

Well I know how I feel when I hear rumors about our church or when we are compared to other Apostolic churches in our town that have a bad rep. :sadEspecially when we are viewed a certain way only because we have "Apostolic" in the Name of our church... so I shouldn't do the same.

So, is that a "yes"? :)
