Full Gospel Tabernacle, Tennessee, United States


4.5 (129 reviews) Spent Ranking #35 in Memphis Religious Sites

Excellent Gospel Choir!

My fiancé and I were visiting from Ireland and heard about this Church because of its Al Green connection. We arrived just before 11:30am on Sunday morning and got a lovely warm friendly greeting, Al Green wasn't there but the talent and enthusiasm of the gospel singing is incredibly beautiful and thoroughly uplifting! When we were leaving we were both given a Pecan pie which was absolutely delicious! Although other reviewers have said not to worry about arriving at any time in particular,I think as it's not just a tourist attraction and is actually a real church I think it's more respectful to arrive on time as it creates a distraction otherwise! Also dress up these ladies really put an effort into their appearance ;-)

    Ok.. i got to admit, i am normally not visiting any church. But as the trip to Memphis was meant for my parents i made an exception. My dad really wanted to see a gospel choir and because we were visiting Graceland it was the next thing to do. The church is only 10 minutes away from Graceland and of course it is famous for All Green being the pastor there. We were there earlie, when there was still Sunday school. We were invited to come back later, service started at 11:30. If you are considering visiting here, than even 11:30 is still earlie and it won't be a problem to arrive later than that. The locals do to, they drop in at just any time. Fully dressed up, even the small children. Th gospel choir is amazing, you cant sit still. Mr All Green was there and the service was friendly, loving, funny and respect full to every one. People are singing, dancing and emotionally very involved. It was something i had never experienced before and it was worth every minute! If we had more churches like this in the world, i believe people would be more at ease with one another and this world would become a better place.
