The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

A fantastic place to learn more about Jesus and feel peace amid turmoil and confusion. The members are very welcoming. Classes available for adults, youth, and children.

6 years ago I only added the 5 stars with no words. I still give it 5 stars! Welcoming church lead by inspired volunteers. Traditional services with the option to attend Sunday School and children and youth groups. Family friendly. Non-judgemental. Has wonderful systems in place for leadership, fellowshipping, and for ministering to one another. I've been a member of this church my whole life and have attended many congregations around the US and love that I have an instant group of friends/support system once I find this church. I have been participating in this location since high school only having left for college at BYU then when I got married and we attended the Gulfport branch before coming back to this "home ward." I invite friends all the time. Currently, we're holding hybrid worship services. Come check us out, I love new friends!

Very Christ-centered

Located just off Starkey on 109th Ave., just behind the Palms Rehab. Center. The church cannot be easily seen from Starkey Rd. as it is hidden in trees. It is in a large one story building with ample parking on Sundays. Three congregations meet here at different times on Sunday. We attend the 10 o'clock session known as Seminole 1st ward. Folks are extremely warm and friendly, ready to help wherever needed. Sacrament is held every Sunday. There is no paid ministry but tithes are paid privately to the church. Church is very family centered. Church leaders call members to leadership positions for periods of time. They do not have preaching as other churches but they invite different members to give short talks on needed subjects. Visitors are always welcomed warmly and no pressure is ever applied to non-members. Love is welcomed here.

For me, a firmly devoted Christian and that have just started visiting and have been "investigating" this way of managing our faith, this stake has been an incredible experience. A Stake (which I still don't know why its called like that) is just a building, its like a house is just a structure and its us who make them or convert them in our HOME. This stake has become my spiritual home and I am loving every second that I spend in it. I will be baptized on March 15, 2015 and am more than sure that its the desicion that our Saviour wants me to make. Thank you all for making me feel as welcome as I have. Thank you Mark David Thomas, for bringing me into the Church of Jesus Christ. Be blessed!!
