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…

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…

Early bird…
For years, whenever someone has asked me where I would go to church if I didn’t work at Trinity, I would say Union Church. I have watched their services online here and there for years, but had never actually stepped foot into their building until last Sunday. This year for Mother’s Day my family was…

Is that a Shofar I hear?
On Sunday April 3rd I found myself at Schoolfield Pentecostal Holiness Church. I walked into the front doors and was automatically welcomed by the usher at the door, the folks running the sound, and the folks in the pews surrounding mine. The Pastor was already in the pulpit talking as the clock struck 10am. You…

Two churches in one…
On March 6th I started driving to Crosspoint Church which I had been told met in a separate building on the property of Forest Lawn Baptist Church. I had driven by there earlier in the week to see exactly where this building was so I would know where to park on Sunday. I pulled into…
