Faith United Methodist Church - Fort Myers, Florida - Fort Myers (FL)

5 /5 L Smith: I am so blessed by Pastor Dennis, the staff and everyone Ive met at Faith church. A very caring family in christ as we love and support each other. The sermons are so down to earth and I appreciate the way Pastor Dennis relates the scripture to every day life. Hospitality counter has delicious sweets and coffee every Sunday before and after the service. Everyone is welcome....come enjoy the amazing music by Julian Sundby with his choir and praise team!!

5 /5 George Boyer: Very “mission driven” church that supports local and worldwide charities. For example, volunteers actively pack and donate food for local food pantry. Worship service is always meaningful. Communion is open to all Christ believers including all visitors. Bible classes, young parents invited. Youth ministry is available weekly for elementary to high school students. Sunday morning Visitors get pastries and coffee prior to service and get to mingle.

5 /5 Lawrence Fose: Our family has been members since 2004 and even attended services here when we lived in NY and visited my parents. I cant imagine a better place of worship. The pastor really brings the gospel message to life. They have great traditional and contemporary music. The church is very mission oriented. They make food packets for the local food pantry, collect blankets for the homeless, they make prayer shawls/lap robes for those in need of comfort. They also support missionaries in both Africa and Cuba. No matter what your personal baggage may be you will always be made to feel welcome here. Should your personal circumstances prevent you from attending in person, services are livestreamed on facebook. That being said, it is always best to attend in person whenever possible.

5 /5 Karin Bennett: My place of worship for 30 years, absolutely beautiful people inside and out side. Always very helpful with everything. Especially when you have surgery , or the need of help in everything. Plus always reaching out to the community to help.

1 /5 T M: I was volunteering with all hands and hearts, where our base was here at Faith United Methodist Church. In the end, both the church pastor and All Hands and hearts treated me horrible. All hands and hearts almost left me stranded on the streets. All hands and hearts has this rule that if we volunteer 30 days you have to leave base like I believe from what I remember three days four nights or 2 days 3 nights I dont remember. I wasnt going to get my last paycheck for 3 days so I would have been on the streets for those 3 days sleeping without a sleeping bag I had a air mattress and I had a blanket and I had a pillow but I would have been sleeping with my personal stuff like my purse on the ground. So I was trying to make an appointment with the pastor to see if he knew of anywhere I could go because I had no money at the time. So the secretary said that he was in meetings all day and they would get back with me. I waited till the next day and I was also checking the next day for my package because it was a day late and I saw that the pastor was in there so all I did was buzz in and just see if there was any update. Well the the youth pastor that was in there talk to me and he said that he didnt really know of any place. So I got with the human resource Lady of all hands and hearts and she said I can wait till that Friday till I got my pay. And I thought everything was okay until Wednesday morning when I was told that I had to leave by noon off base and because I guess the pastor had told the director that I stormed into their office and I was harassing them which I didnt do any of that because you cant storm into their office you have to buzz into their office. The pastor at the church or the youth pastor I dont know which one did this but one of them told our director that I stormed in their office and was harassing them that is a lie. All I did was go in that building where we check our packages and my package wasnt there and I buzzed the office to make an appointment to talk to the pastor. I wanted to see if he had any ideas where I could stay. I was treated horrific in The end by the church and all hands and hearts and now Im extremely afraid to ever be a missionary or do any volunteer work ever again because of this experience.This was my first time volunteering with all hands and hearts. They judged me and singled me out and used my emotions against me. The church needs to do the right thing and make amends to what they caused me they need to be the adults that they are and make things right. I never threatened anybody I never cussed at anybody. I was there doing the Lords work and helping those homeowners get back in their homes, and I get treated this way. This is not living Gods way this is not Christian in what they did and how they treated me and its supposed to be a Bible believing Church.
