Anona United Methodist Church work - Largo (FL)

5 /5 Toby Florida: Great church for families! Large number of families with children are part of this church due to so many opportunities and functions just for kids such as the FX Service which runs like a show just for children (family members can join in). There are several other family and children events here every week. There is also a great contemporary service with a band (it feels like you are at a concert) great light effects and you can dress more casually. Finally a traditional service for those who want that. I feel like Anona has something for young and old but is truly adapting to the times and offers more for those with children and families than any church I have attended. Not to be missed are the sermons every Sunday, they are the quality of someone I would go pay a decent amount of money to see, very entertaining and educational all at once but on point with Gods message.

5 /5 Martinka Sharon (Anonymous): 100% without a doubt, I heard one of the best sermons. But I also know that the pastor who spoke that sermon was brought to me by God!

5 /5 Randi Bailey: This church is wonderful, as they focus on the positive power of Gods love, and teach how to follow in Jesuss footsteps. It is very family oriented, and the sermons and musical presentations are greatly inspiring!

1 /5 Alyssa Young: From being 1-years old and attending for what I thought would be the rest of my life, to quickly change by the age of 23. I grew up here; I was in the youth group, I served in many ways, and I was a lead sign language interpreter for their contemporary service. I’m beyond grateful for *almost every experience I had in this church as it shaped a part of me, today. My heart broke when I had to make the very hard decision to leave. I watched my former youth pastor be put in a position to leave us wrongfully. I watched close friends be mistreated, gaslit, and even allowed myself to be gaslit over multiple years by “leaders” within the church. I watched the previous children’s ministry director be removed from this church for inappropriate conduct with children, while the church continued to say it was “ok”. I sat with families who were beside themselves when this happened years ago, and to this day, are still battling. I watched yet another person in this church, a former man involved in youth ministry, be accused of taking advantage of children(under the ages of 18) and became disgusted as the church continue to allow this to be “ok”. I watched as I drifted from this place that I used to call home, as Anona began to no longer align with the strong values I have created within myself, and one day, my family. I watched leadership be spoken down to as they served selflessly, and looked out for the children. I watched more wrong happen at this church than good/for the glory of God.

5 /5 Carol Smerker: I felt very comfortable when I first moved down to FL. That was 20 years ago! I love it even more, the pastors, the people, the programs. They involve everyone. You are loved and if you need something, there is someone by your side!
