Testimonials

Thank you for all that you have done and meant to Park Church, to God’s mission here at Park, and to me personally.  I think back to the time of transition, grief, confusion, and uncertainty that we were in before you started, and then think of how far we’ve come under your leadership - and these feeble words cannot express my gratitude.  Park is different, and is where it is, because of God working through you."  - Matt Agresti, Assistant Pastor

[VitalChurch]’s diagnostic process and intentional interim staff were invaluable to our church when we lost our pastor of 26 years. They brought much-needed perspective and addressed issues with both professionalism and pastors' hearts. We're a healthier church poised to serve God in new ways with the arrival of our next full-time pastor."  - Cornerstone Church, Manchester, MA

Our church was stagnant and would have died if not for [VitalChurch] assisting us in flushing out the root causes of our decay and working with us through leadership training, change in governance structure, congregational communication, and staying right on track throughout the entire process. We are looking forward to seeing how God will use all of this to grow His church."  - Brookville Bible Church, Holbrook, MA

The ministry that [VitalChurch] provides is invaluable. A church that has even a hint of feeling the need for this ministry would do well to grab at the opportunity. The value is seen initially to some degree, but is not seen in its entirety until some time has passed and the effects are permeating the church body. And these effects are from the Lord, not some methodology, [VitalChurch] is a ministry God uses to bring light and healing."  - Brookville Bible Church, Holbrook, MA

I have been at [the church] since the fall of 1973. The church is more vibrant, more outward thinking, and just more enthusiastic about digging deeper into God and then sharing him that (sic) we have ever seen. It’s just so cool. So I wanted you to know that your work with us is bearing good, sweet fruit. We all believe that God brought [the pastor] to us to accomplish a turn around. His work with you and your work with us has indeed turned us."  - Church Member – NJ

I was the last holdout on the Elder board as I felt this was admitting we could not do our jobs as Elders and it was expensive. Was I ever wrong! Only by observing the skillful, experienced way [VitalChurch Ministry] handled the situation was I able to see how far off we were from having the skill set to deal with things. It took many months of prayerful, unbelievably difficult, diligent work, but today the church is revitalized, there are young people in leadership positions, the church is growing spiritually and numerically, and God is being honored."  - Elder – Church in the Seattle area

I believe [VitalChurch Ministry]’s diagnostic piece was dead on and captured the weaknesses of this church. They did an excellent job in their interviewing process and their report was very comprehensive. [The interim pastor’s] ministry here was effective in getting Calvary Church through a tough time of transition."  - Elder – Church in CT

If [VitalChurch Ministry] hadn’t come to our rescue, I’m not sure we’d be standing today. Not only are we standing, but we’re thriving."  - Sunridge Church, CA

[VitalChurch Ministry] steadied a badly rocking ship. They helped us to remember that our first love is Jesus. They listened without judging and were wise in their counsel. They were used by God to bring Sunridge into the next phase of ministry. Very grateful to them."  - Sunridge Church, CA

I wholeheartedly recommend [VitalChurch Ministry]. The value added to your church far outweighs the cost. The people involved in this ministry are not simply consultants. They will walk alongside you through the process and love your church."  - Sunridge Church, CA

I think the whole process of having an intentional interim is wise and [VitalChurch Ministry] has the experience to make it work."  - Elder – Church in CT
