One City Church

This is my 3rd time attending this church (online today) and I am captivated. I attended the first time a few Sundays ago on "accident"; my regular church was unexpectedly closed, so I decided to drive around Collierville in hopes to find an opened church that "felt right" in my spirit.

I had driven by a couple of churches, but none of them made me stop to inquire until I drove by One City Church. What grabbed me was the huge white sign that read "Love Works", so I made a u-Turn on Houston Levee Road and told my daughters(ages 4 & 5 years old) in the backseat that we may have found the church to attend. I pulled up to the security guard and asked if the church was open and the time it started. He had given me a brief history lesson on the church and told me that the church started in about an hour at 11:11am. I paused and just stared at the security guard and repeated the time of 11:11am back to him in disbelief. I told him that I would definitely return at 11:11am. Before I pulled off he held my hand and prayed over me.

The significance of 11:11am to me is that almost everyday for several weeks now I have seen these numbers 1:11, 11:11, 11:01, etc., throughout my day. In books, clocks, my gym locker, literally everywhere. I have learned that these numbers are Angel Sign numbers and for this church to take the time to dedicate their start time to 11:11am spoke volumes to me in that moment. I look forward to hopefully many happy Sundays together.

A beautiful church family who love to praise our God with freedom in the Spirit. Wonderful teaching under Pastor Chris Conlee and his wife Karin. We searched for several years for a place we would feel like we belonged, and loved. OneCity makes all feel welcomed and NO exclusivity, just love like Jesus loves us.
