I've been gone from that area for over 20 years so I can't say anything about the condition of many of the churches around there now. We fellowshiped often with the young people in Clute & Lake Jackson.
I looked on the UPCI website to see what churches are around and I don't recognize any of the pastors from the old days. So... the churches in Clute & Lake Jackson used to be great people but that doesn't help me in any in letting you know how things go today.
There is a church in Brazoria. Brother Harold Williams. I know him well... grew up with his son... They are good people. The church would probably be a relatively small one if that is what you are looking for.
Now... West Columbia... I can tell you about that.  That's where my parents go to church. Danny Johnson is the pastor. He is a great pastor and I really like the WC church. Brother Johnson teaches at TBC or is administration there... or both.
But... of all of those choices West Columbia would be the farthest drive (about 15 miles or so)
Christian Tabernacle over in Angleton was always a good church back in the day as well.
Like I say... it's been a while. The only one I can suggest from recent experience is West Columbia and I state up front that this is because I haven't been to the others in decades and I am, admittedly, biased.
I know this hasn't been much help but let me know if there's anything else I can help you find out etc. |
Thanks...
You mention 15 miles as far and I'm going what in the world?
I drive 50 miles everyday to work...lol

LOL... yeah. You never know how people feel about miles. Especially bi-weekly miles.
Also... that is from Lake Jackson. The area considered to be Brazosport is pretty spread out. So the actual distance would depend on where one lived.

WHAT??? Well, Lord have mercy! No offense but I do like Pastor Joel Osteen and Victoria. Great and real people! You would like them if you met them!
Well, I used to preach at Bible Truth Church in El Campo for Pastor Larry Smith. It was a great church and I always enjoyed preaching there! I think they left the UPC but not positive about that. I think that may be near where the brother is moving too.

How long ago was it when you preached for Brother Smith?
We like to get down there to visit every once in a while but we haven't done so in years now... over a decade I imagine.

I have no doubt that they're great and real people. I just do not get edified spiritually by their sermons. That's all...

Re: Church recommendation
I'm bumping this thread 'cause i have now moved to the Brazosport area. I've been attending an assembly of God.
Any recommendations would be nice. Preferably, a church with young people too.

WELCOME TO BRAZOSPORT! What kinda name is THAT?

Probably named after the Brazos River, silly. Hello? Brazos Port.

Re: Church recommendation
Have you tried any COGIC churches? I am not really sure of their doctrine, but I have friends that attend a COGIC church.
