Port City Community Church Reviews

Christ centered church. Welcoming to all. Non- judgmental and friendly.

Got baptized here! It s the best church I ve been to (and I been to a BUNCH). I trust my kids with the staff here, warm and welcoming people everywhere. Free coffee. Awesome praise band. Lotta love here

I love this church. The people are so welcoming and the messages are powerful. Mike speaks straight from the Bible and makes the message relevant. The music is very good too.

Very friendly, liked seeing children coming to the Lord making a public profession if faith being baptized . Message on Ephesians & 1st Thessalonians was well grounded

I am not a RELIGIOUS person. And I think that this Church is awesome.

Beautiful church with wonderful message. Non denominational with protestant beliefs.

The best church ever. I always feel welcomed and the services are always great.

They showed up in full force to help the community after hurricane Florence. I was more than impressed.

My church home since 2007. Really enjoy the people here, the ambiance, the effort they make to create such a special experience for all that walk in the doors. A safe space for all people-- everyone has a spot here to be welcomed with open arms.

I ve been going here on and off for eight years. I still can t love this place as much as I want to. I feel like cattle being hurtled in and hurtled out. It feels cold.

A wonderful place to learn about unconditional Love!

I live this church!! You can feel Gods presence in this place!

Big church, but I didn't find many people who even glanced at me let alone made me feel welcomed

I went to this church for years when I was a college student at UNCW. I volunteered with the kids, and went to services every Sunday. When you start, you will not want to miss one. Every week I left feeling like I learned something, and that Pastor Mike could really relate the bible to life. I still watch every service online from the RTP where I live now. I miss this church so much!!! I would encourage anyone considering going back to church to try PC3 out. There is a non-judgmental atmosphere, and you can be as involved- or not!- as you want. This church literally changed my life, and is the best one I have ever attended. If you are stressed about how busy the parking situation gets, just come early and park in the spots on the side of the road or in the wooded area. I never had a problem getting out of those.

Great church with some of the best people you will ever meet.

I felt like I had been to a concert not a worship service. Very disappointed.

I needed John MacArthur, RC Sproul, Voddie Baucham or Paul Washer after that so called service.

This church is great! As a singer, I look forward to starting my day with going into church and singing out loud with the band to contemporary Christian music that's always on K- Love. They rock it out with some really inspiring music every Sunday But, no one rocks anything out more that Pastor Mike!!

He is one of my most favorite pastors of all time. He's very modern, funny and full of positive energy. His stories about being a husband and Dad are often very sweet and moving but most always have a bit of humour in them to make you smile and say...Ive been there too! He really gets to the heart of the message and makes you feel what he is trying to get across to you. He always makes sense at the end even if in the beginning, you don't know where he's headed with his stories and examples. His words are truly inspiring and make you go home for a week and think about the meaning of the message. I always want to come and hear the next thing he's going to say. Church is never boring at Port city with Pastor Mike. The members love his messages so much, they are almost disappointed when it's not him giving the message, I know I always am but.... It is very obvious that he chooses the other speakers very carefully!

One guy was there a few months ago, and I literally believe his day job was stand up comedy. He was great, and his message about missions was even greater! Very moving on many levels. At the end though, the Pastor came out and thanked the speaker, and in my opinion it was just to let us know he wasn't far away. He really cares about the church and everyone who attends, speaks, and preforms. He's truly a modern day man of God speaking from the Bible , inspired by the Holy spirit with a heart for the people bigger than the entire church and congregation. Hes a rare type of awesome.

The really fun thing about this church aside from the obvious is, all of the different small groups. They have a small group for everything and everyone! They also have summer camp for kids that is better than any Christian summer camp except Camp Willow Run in Littleton NC. And it's at least equal to that sort of Christian sleep over camp fun/ experience! My son can NOT wait to go. Space is limited in the camps because they are so great so, you have to move fast on getting your child signed up.

Over all I think Port City community church or PC3 as the members call it, is where you are gonna feel the presence of God and feel the Holy spirit moving in a big ways whenever you are there. There are thousands of members but, most everyone in the thousands is super friendly and caring. Oh bonus...Free cups of coffee to wake you up! With flavors!!! And awesome children's churches and child care rooms to put your child in so that you can really focus on the experience, while gifted youth pastors and helpers teach your child about God in a way that they feel is fun and makes sense to even the smallest member.

If you never at least check this church out, you are missing out BIG time on a great church experience. This is one of my favourites. I give it 10 stars out of 5.

this church is huge!!!!!! expect a concert every sunday!

Pastor Mike is down to earth teaching practical biblical life application messages

Absolutely wonderful church, community, and place of worship. Stop by for the sermon, stay for the caring, kind people.

It is a large and beautiful church with a balcony...The Praise and Worship time is ok...The lights r very low during the Praise and Worship...Tambourine playing is not allowed in the congregation...The Pastor is a teacher, so his sermons r very good and thought provoking...The people r mainly kind...There is a separate church for children...They have handicap parking...I would recommend this church to a friend.

A welcoming church with a comfortable atmosphere. I always feel like I have learned something when the hour is over.

This church changed my life more than once. Its more than a church. They teach you to be happy and live a good life. They don't look down on you and you can wear anything. Its just positive and peaceful

Great outgoing volunteers workers coupled with relevant, impactful Biblical teaching. I started going the week after Hurricane Florence and have finally found a home church. They are constantly reaching out to the community. You can't help but feel welcome here.

I love my church Amazing Music amazing message God is all up in this place!

Balsam Place even though it's quite large you still see a lot of friendly faces like the pastor's awesome the band is kicking a great place to worship

PC3 will change your life, I promise, please just give it a chance.

Great place for church and the kids area is super awesome

PC3 church is full of inspiration and kindness from the parking lot attendants, door greeters, to the talented music staff and speakers. I look forward in bringing my son next week... :)

Really big church good service too but I found it hard to connect with people which is normal for a big church I guess.

Great church, kids ministries especially are amazing.

I just loved Pastor Mike from the first time I visited. He s an awesome leader!

Great folks, solid Bible teaching, real-life application

Went to a local church this morning and was treated rather unkindly... On the way home, I decided to stop by Port City Community Church. My experience, was totally different; the environment at Port City Community Church was friendly yet relaxed. The sermon was great, not to mention the praise and worship was second to none!

This church has helped my wife and I learn to walk with god. I'm stubborn and easily distracted to boot. This church doesn't allow either of those to hinder me as it draws you in emotionallyand mentally.try it for yourself

Been attending this church since 2011. It can seem big but once you volunteer and become active you will notice it becomes very small and you will see someone you know all the time.

Warm and caring staff, inviting atmosphere, and very relevant teaching.

Our family tech expert (my 12 year old son) now has us chrome casting to our flat screen in the family room live on Sunday.

Even the worship component is live! Thanks PC for your values, your mission, and your EFFECT on community.

I love this church you can feel the presence of God in this church .

I like the free coffee. The sermon was captivating but, I did feel challenged. The people were kind of nice. I think the sanctuary is great with ample seating.

This church changed my life more than once. Its more than a church. They teach you to be happy and live a good life. They don't look down on you and you can wear anything. Its just positive and peaceful

I've found my walk with God thanks to PC3! Great staff and Mike Ashcraft delivers a powerful message week after week.

A wonderful place to learn about unconditional Love!

Wonderful place to worship Jesus Christ and walk with God! No pressure and no membership.

I love this place so much. I look forward to every Sunday.

Probably a little too nice for a church, but if big churches are your thing this is the place to go. Everyone was super nice.

Awesome experience surrounded by other people who are just as perfectly flawed as I am, basking in the Love, Grace and Mercy of our God!

Took my daughter to see the Newsboys here, and was truly amazing!!!

Port City Church - What a welcoming feeling from the moment you pull into the parking lot to the time you hear Word of God. The music at the beginning of service will inspire you. The messages are Bible-based, truthful, thought provoking and most of all inspires you to grow closer to Christ.
The staff and volunteers are joyful, inviting.

Amazing church and amazing people. Very welcoming and always a great message.

Beautiful campus and practical lessons for living in God's will. A variety of service times and small groups to help you get plugged in.

Port City Community Church is an excellent church to attend if you are a college student or a married adult (with or without kids). However, as a twenty something year old I have not found my niche within the church.

I recently moved to Wilmington just over a year ago for my new job, and after asking my coworkers where to attend I was told Port City. I discovered that at the time there was a small group of young adults that were meeting outside of the church, but within a few weeks of my arrival the group fell apart. A new group has not been started in its place. I continue to attend as I know it s the right thing to do, but I sit in the back and often times feel out of place. I wish they did more for people my age.

This is a very large Church. To where you can get involved in many ways, ie the host team, production team, grow zone, treasure island, tsunami effect, overflow. The last four opportunities to volunteer are all dealing with kids. It's the best way through influence through God and the kids minds

I am new to Wilmington and looking for the right church. After listening to Pastor Mike online, I think I found it. This Sunday will be my first visit and I'm looking forward to it.

This church is amazing! Some people get intimidated by size of the congregation, but it really is one big family. I've never felt judged at PC3. I enjoy being able to watch the service online when I'm unable to attend.

Love this place. Great nondenominational services. Just the place to help you grow in your relationship with God!

If you haven't found "the right " church for you & your family. Try out this one. We were in the same place, none just seemed to feel right until we came here & it felt like what we were looking for this whole time. Highly recommend coming & see what its about.

Love this place. Great nondenominational services. Just the place to help you grow in your relationship with God!

I was living in Wilmington for 2 yrs and did attend Port City Church.. Each and every Sunday while living there ..
Was a wonderful and warm church to attend.. The staff the ppl over all were so welcoming and very friendly .. One could not ask for a better church to attend.. The worship team so organized and hearts running after God..!

I live in Fayetteville NC now, but I do make it a point to visit you guys once a month when I can.. So Port City Church stole my heart while there.. God Bless all the wonderful works God has been doing to your churches in his name...
