Contemporary Churches in Buford

Centered around the Mall of Georgia, Buford Drive, and the I‑985 corridor, many congregations feature modern worship bands, practical messages, and casual environments. They often offer strong kids and student ministries that fit the rhythms of Buford City Schools and youth sports, with weeknight groups for busy commuters.

Traditional Liturgical Churches

In and near Old Town Buford and established neighborhoods, you’ll find churches with choirs, organ-led hymns, and structured liturgy. These congregations appeal to residents who value reverence, stained glass sanctuaries, and a calmer pace away from the retail bustle by the Mall of Georgia.

Spanish-Language Churches in Buford

Along the Buford Highway corridor and neighborhoods near Sugar Hill, congregations offer Spanish-only or bilingual services. Many provide ESL classes, translation, and family ministries that serve Gwinnett County’s Latino community, including workers tied to retail, hospitality, and construction around Lake Lanier.

Catholic Parishes

Catholic communities serving Buford residents emphasize traditional Mass, sacramental life, and active ministries for multi-generational families. With locations a short drive from Lake Lanier neighborhoods and the I‑85/I‑985 interchange, they accommodate commuters with multiple weekend services and faith-formation programs, often in both English and Spanish.

#StopPuttingItOff
“You ever get comfortable where you are and don't really want to do what God wants you to do? That's the story of these guys, they kinda got comfortable. To say another way, they knew what the Lord wanted them to do. They knew. There was no doubt. They knew what the Lord wanted to do. They just weren't interested in actually doing it. So I love what happens. Joshua, like he's not putting up with stuff anymore because like he's like he's like almost 90 years old. And how many of know when you when you get older, you just don't care anymore. Right? That's Joshua. He's like, I don't care anymore. So he walks up to these guys one day and he says, hey guys, I got a question for you. How much longer are you gonna keep being slackers? And some of y'all think I'm making that up, but I just want you to know I'm not making that up because go study the Hebrew. What's fascinating is that word put off right there. When Joshua says, how long are you gonna keep putting off taking possession of the lamb? In Hebrew, the word put off literally means to get slack. So he literally is calling them slackers here. How long are you guys gonna keep putting this off? How long are you gonna keep being slackers? He calls them out for refusing to do what the Lord wanted them to do. And incidentally, beloved, this brings us to our second point for today, which is this number two. Number two, listen, we are all tempted to put off being obedient to God. Say it again, we are all, everybody in here, we are all tempted. We are all tempted to put off being obedient to God. How many all in here agree with that?”

#ВремяЛучшийПодарок
“моему сыну почти 22 и я сделал решение я максимально буду проводить время с моим сыном моей дочери 16, я сделал решение максимально я буду проводить время с моей дочерью максимально я буду проводить время с моей женой, с моей семьей аллилуйя я обнаружил, мои дети не помнят времена, когда им подарил телефон они этого не помнят, они даже не помнят, когда им что-то большое подарил Илаша, помнишь, я с тобой, подарил тебе какую-то гитару, он этого не помнит. Но знаете, что он помнит? Когда мы поехали на остров Сейнт-Мартин, и нам дали 2007-го, 2-го года Ниссен Ворса, такая маленькая машинка, она вся в ржавчине, 2 цилиндра только работает из четырех, мы еле на горку подымаемся, мы там не разговариваем на французском, абсолютно не знаем, что мы делаем, но у нас такое классное время, мы вспоминаем об этом постоянно, что твои дети говорят они хотят, они хотят провести время с тобою и со мною. Аминь, братья и сестры, будь рядом своей семьею, обеспечи свою 7,”

#GodsGoodPlans
“I wanna be clear and this is the anointing part. You may not know the plan. You may not understand the plan. You may not always cooperate with the plan. You might not always like parts of the plan but god always, always, always has a good plan for your life and he's always working it. I love that he says here that he has plans to prosper us. You know, someone comes up to you and they say, I've got plans for you. That does not make you happy. Am I right about that? Like every villain in the movie is that we have plans for you, you know, kind of thing. So, god if god just told his people, I've got plans for you, I think we go, oh, yeah, but like like, what kind of plans? So, he he he has to break it down. He says, I've got plans for you and they're good plans. They are good plans for you. Not rotten plans, good plans. Plans to eventually bring very good things into your life. He spells it out. Good plans, plans to prosper, plans not to harm but to help, plans to give you hope, plans to give you a future, plans to give you something to cling to and look forward to.”

#ChurchAsSanctuary
“Some of us have had rough backgrounds. Some of us have had poor role models. Some of us has a history of tragedy and disappointment. Some of us are burdened with insecurities with a lack of self confidence. Some of us have too much confidence. And for many of you, the church, this has been a saving place, a healing place, a place for the wounded and the brokenhearted. I hope you will always be asking if Buford First is that for not only yourselves, but for anyone who may come into these doors. A place where someone can come to love and be loved, to celebrate and to be celebrated, to serve and to be served, but they'll serve and to be served. Those go together. Don't be content just to come and let someone serve you without relying on God's gifts and graces for you to continue to serve. We love and we serve as Jesus did.”

#AchievementIsntEverything
“And yet, what we find is even with this, the Olympic, as we think about it, I'll call it the Olympic illusion. As we look, Olympic gold medalists often describe a deep emotional crash immediately after winning the ultimate prize. They get it and then they're like, I've reached the summit. What next? I've been working for years to be able to stand on this podium. Now what? And for most of them, they look at it and go, next year, next four years, I'll come back and I'll do it again. And can you imagine? Then you end up on again on this really weird cyclical thing where suddenly I'm stuck trying to get it over and over and over again. And as you look, you find out attempting to force earthly accomplishments is trying to carry the heavy weight of ultimate meaning. As you're looking at this, it's trying to fill that hole with something that you don't know what it is. Achievement makes a wonderful servant makes a terrible savior.”

#victoryInJesus
“``And beloved here at Good Sam, your trials may be different than those of Dan and Nick, but your hope is still the same. Have you tasted the victory of Jesus in ways that cause your heart to overflow with song? Is God in this season inviting you to receive the victory in a new area of your life? And if you have never known Jesus, we do not receive this victory by ourselves, girding ourselves and becoming the perfect fighters for truth and for righteousness. We receive this victory when we trust him to fight on our behalf as he makes us those who can, by his power, wrestle against falsehood and wrestle against iniquity. We can behold the beauty of Jesus' love as he rides out in victory on our behalf.”

#SpiritualOverflow
“This was not an obligation, but this was an overflow that they had been with God. This was not just a religious duty. This was their spiritual reality in this moment. Peter was not just speaking about something he had read in a book. Peter wasn't repeating somebody else's testimony. He wasn't defending a theological position. He was talking about what he had personally experienced. See, he had saw Jesus heal the sick. He saw Jesus open blinded eyes. He saw Jesus calm storm. He saw Jesus raise folk from the dead. He watched him carry the cross. He watched him die, but he also seen him raise again on the third day, and he says, you can threaten me if you want to, but I cannot stop but make mention of the name of Jesus. You cannot convince me that it didn't happen because I was there, and I sought it for myself.”

#DivineJustice
“Verse five, he's he he says, then he will speak to them in his wrath and distress them in his deep displeasure. They'll be very distressed or very agitated or very upset. In other words, their little world this this this world of getting together amongst themselves and talking about how wonderful they are and how they can overthrow God is all gonna come apart. And God's gonna distress them. God's gonna put them in complete turmoil I mean, just think of God one day reaching out his hand. He's gonna send an angel actually and grab the devil and just grab him and snatch him out and and bring him and send us into the lake of fire. I mean, the I mean, it's just he's gonna snatch him. It's gonna be when it describes that in revelation, it's like it's not gonna be a struggle to get ahold of him. He's just gonna you know, why? Because this individual that the world is is fearful of is is no he's a nobody compared to God. And this is the God that loves us, cares about us, gave his life for us. This is the God that's overseeing our lives, overseeing our world. This is the God that made certain promises to us.”

#FreedomForAll
“And in that messianic prophecy, when I say he has sent me to set the oppressed free, I'm not just talking about oppressed Jews, whether physically or spiritually. I'm talking about any and all oppressed people in bondage, slavery to sin and the devil, wherever they may be, every nation, every color, every language, every geographical language today. The scripture is fulfilled in your hearing. The freedom for the prisoners, recovery of sight for the blind. Today, this scripture is completed in your hearing. The Lord has sent me to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor, that it's party time. It's time to celebrate an Independence Day. It's the July 4. Light up some fireworks or some snakes or some sparklers or whatever. Right? I'm not just talking about you and your friends in your synagogue, my closest friends. I'm talking about the lord's favor on all humanity. Samaritans, Greeks, Syrians, Egyptians, Babylonians, Romans, my message is today, this prophecy is reaching its fulfillment in your hearing today and now.”

#JesusSeesYou
“Before the beginning of time, Jesus saw all of who you are past, present, and future. All of your needs, all of your sins, all of your proclivities, all of your habits, all of your loneliness, all of your tears. And with the father, they declared that one is mine, And he laid down his life for you. In all of these accounts, Jesus models the exact communication and the principles that we use today in this understanding of attending. He stops what he is doing. He looks at the person. He filters out all of the noise of the crowd. He asks meaningful questions to your deepest inquiries, and he listens intensely to the answer. Do you know anyone who attends to your needs this well?”
