"I always leave out fulfilled every time I go to Excel Church. Pastor K, is an amazing pastor and his love for the Lord and the word of God is inspiring. Everyone is truly a community and family in Christ at Excel. They do outstanding work in and for the community. When Pastor K, preach he doesn’t just preach as a pastor but as a person that has been saved but also understands the pains and struggles of life. Which makes the people more relatable to him. His passion for the word and how he feeds it to his congregation makes you want to go to church and get saved because you can feel God’s presence in him and expressed through him. It’s always a blessing to experience and learn the word of God."

"I had the pleasure of visiting this church after being lead to go and watching the service a few Sundays. The experience was awesome. Shortly after attending, we made a decision to move back to SC. Since then I await the texts, calls, and emails with all of the updates. I love the connections afforded to me, The Word is always spot on. I am truly being blessed. I pray to be able to visit again. Planning on just getting up early to take the three hour drive."

Treanda Wright

"Great church friendly atmosphere... great worship... Pastor K Francis Smith is very relatable when it comes to the word. Mixed with young and seasoned worshippers. Really connected in the community. The main sanctuary caught on fire it never stopped the church from being on fire. If you're new to the area or you're looking for a church closer to home, come visit."

Frederick Hart

"I attended Excel Church on Sunday and I must admit that I felt welcome and released soon as I walked in. I've been praying for God to guide me and bring people into my life that can help me understand him better and pour into me. The last year I was so broken because of my mother passing and yet I'm still not sure if I'm coming or going but in my heart I know that he sent me to Excel for great reasons. I was on my way to visit another church in Conyers and God redirected me. Thanks to everyone who made me feel in place and at home."
