The church with the tallest steeple.
Ok, so I did not measure the steeple. However, I can see their steeple above all the other church on Main Street. haha On Sunday, August 28, 2022, I attended First Baptist Church located at 871 Main Street. Before attending a particular church, I always check out their website for information. Let me just say, I have…

The church in the middle of the road…
For years, I have driven past this church that the city seems to have grown around. It is definitely a central focal point in Danville’s west end, as it appears to be set in the middle of the road. On Sunday, July 31st, I attended Mount Vernon United Methodist Church for their 10am service. I…

The church with the famous steps…
On Sunday, July 24th, I visited First Presbyterian Church located at 937 Main Street Danville, VA 24541. If you grew up in Danville, chances are you have had prom or senior pictures taken on the steps of this church. I was pleased that they have a very updated and informative website which told me what time their…

The Christmas Tree Church
On Sunday, July 17th, I visited Ascension Lutheran Church at 314 West Main Street Danville, VA 24541. I was looking for a church that started at 11am (which apparently is a thing of the past now) and found that this church still met at that time. I walked in as the service was about to start (I…

What is a Rector?
On Sunday, July 3rd, I went to The Episcopal Church of the Epiphany located at 115 Jefferson Ave. Danville, Virginia 24541. Their service starts at 10am. One thing that I noticed about this church is the limited parking due to their downtown location. I was perfectly fine to park on the street and walk, but…

Now I need a nap!
On Sunday, June 26th, I was able to finally attend a church that I had been trying to visit for a while; Truth and Worship Outreach Ministries located at 212 Murphy Cir. I had actually been in this church before, when it was under the name Stokesland United Methodist Church. During Stokesland’s last few years they…

I was in the neighborhood…
This past Sunday was Father’s Day and, like most holidays, I headed up to my grandparents’ house for lunch in Lynchburg. Going to church on those Sundays is always a challenge. This particular week, I was also taking care of a friend’s cat off of Westover Drive, so I knew I would also have to…

Double hitter part 2
As I arrived at Union Presbyterian Church, I noticed that their congregation was about what I expected it to be; smaller and older than DRC. I walked inside and the man at the door greeted me and pointed to the sanctuary. As I sat down and absorbed the color of the stained glass, the large globe…

Double Hitter, part one
On Sunday, May 29th, I decided that I would visit two churches. I did this because I would be on vacation the next Sunday. (Actually, by the time this is posted, I should be in the air on my way to Alaska.) I wanted to pick two different type of churches for this “double hitter”. (I…

No fake people allowed!
On Sunday, May 22nd, I went to Christian Fellowship Church of God. This is the second time that I had attempted to attend this church. The first time I showed up at 11am because they had no sign to say when their service started, but it was obvious that I was late. So I had to do…
