Gulf Coast Community Church Reviews

My husband and I have been attending for about 2 years now, and we love the emphasis on community at this church! What drew us was the warm welcome, the non-denominational preaching, and the 5 minute break between worship and the sermon to greet your neighbor- a unique feature in our church shopping journey. Highly recommend :)

Jamie! Thanks for the review. It helps others as they search for a church in St Pete. The 5 minute break really gives people a way to connect more than just a quick handshake or greeting...plus it's a good time to grab a coffee refill 😉. Sometimes it's hard to get people to stop talking with each other and start the sermon! We are so grateful you and your family have made our church family a big part of your life. 😊

This church is a must for anybody wanting sound biblical teaching. Our children's ministry is better than great! Teachers come prepared & the kids get an interactive bible lesson every week. This is a friendly, others oriented, people loving church. Come check us out!!

We have been so blessed to be a part of Gulf Coast. My husband, 18mo old daughter, and I came to GCCC after attending a few others, and I can truly say that the community here is so intentional, welcoming, and genuine. Nothing like I've experienced anywhere else. Preaching is gospel centered! GCCC has been exactly what we needed before we could even see what God was working in our lives through this church. Love the kids ministry, and everyone who helps in nursery! Pastor Jerry (and all the pastoral staff) made it a point to introduce themselves and get to know us better. We weren't just a number filling their church, but a person they genuinely cared about. Would definitely encourage you to come and check out Gulf Coast!

I was saved out of the worldly living mentality and planted in this Locale, 21 years ago, January 23, 2000. Many times have the tides of discomfort tried to cause me to stumble; and had my spiritual foundation not being steadfast in pursuing understanding and spiritual knowledge, I would probably fallen through the cracks of unbelief. I am most grateful that The LORD saw to it, that my stubborn heart would be trained by people who have been trained by Him; people who practice what they preach...or shall I say...teach...practice what they teach!

Gulf Coast has been a welcoming environment for me since 2018. This nondenominational church community is loving, the teaching is solid, and it is such a great place for kids to be included as part of the community, too! Love it here.

Gulf Coast is a warm and welcoming church that has a healthy diversity of people who love God, are focused on living their faith out by obeying the Bible and sharing God's love with those they live near. My wife and I have found a community of people that accepted us and genuinely want to do life with us! We love Gulf Coast and anyone who wants to join us in our mission to be a faithful witness to this generation and the next.

It’s a welcoming, non-denominational church where you can really feel God’s presence. The teaching is Bible-based, the community is loving, and our kids are cared for and growing in their faith. We always leave encouraged and thankful to be part of GCCC.

It's definitely been an amazing 5 months since I started here at Gulf Coast Community Church. I was seeking a family versus a formality and this church has provided that, feeling welcome since day one of visiting. More importantly I have been able to serve the Lord our God in many ways, allowing further spiritual growth with sound biblical doctrine that is consistently aligned with scripture. I am beyond grateful for my family here, and the pastoral team, staff, as well as the elders. They have been nothing short of pure awesomeness, always showing concern, love, and support from a genuine heart. Nothing forced but offered from a heart posture that is set apart from anywhere I have ever been. Thank you Jesus for this home🙏

I starting coming here 10 years ago while I was a student at USFSP, and I stayed because the people here genuinely care and make you a part of the family. I have had countless laughs over meals, adventures, as well as deep and tear-filled conversations. I will never be able to count the ways that the teaching and the people of Gulf Coast have impacted me and my walk with Christ.
