Church in Orlando Area?
 

Can anyone recommend a good church in the Orlando, Fl area?


We are in Ft Lauderdale and plan to travel to Orlando tomorrow. Would like to attend in the PM....


Thanks!

Thanks for these recommendations.

We are debating Orlando tomorrow night or going here in the morning (Ft Lauderdale) http://cathedralofpentecost.com/events.htm

How is the vacation going?

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

You may not feel like going to church in the evening if you are out sightseeing all day.

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

We are having a great time!




:saycheese:shockamoo:amen





It's a bit of a challenge with the three kids... but really that's the whole idea. I have not spent this much time with them and Kristin in a long, long while.

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

Bro. Hoover it is highly commendable that you would be considering going to 2 services Sunday on your vacation. I salute you and your family.

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

LOL!


Not quite sure how to take this post, but we often do attend church - even on vacation.

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

Even if it's one of those footloose UPC churches?


Just kidding. Bro Epley.:tic:tic:tic

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

Sorry, I meant if you go to church in the am, after traveling and sightseeing you may be worn out come evening service.

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

Oh, right. We will probably choose between the two since Orlando is several hrs from here.

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

Thank you bro.

I for one quite enjoy visting churches.

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

Eureka,

That COP church in Ft. Lauderdale sounds interesting. To have gone from eight members to over 400 over the last fifteen years or so is quite an accomplishment in reaching a city for Christ.

Apparently the Pastors wife is a recording artist also so the music is probably good.

Have you ever watched Jon&Kate Plus Eight. They have twins and sextuplets. They took them all to Disneyworld.

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

Bro Elms is a well respected man too. He is younger than you, but I believe a graduate of JCM (or whatever it was called)

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

I can't imagine! One of the ways my parents could swing nine kids was by NOT taking us to disney!

I never had a soda until I was sixteen!

BTW - we really did have all we needed - just not any luxuries. :)

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

I think you would like Mike Williams' church in Apopka. It's supposedly really beautiful, and I'm sure it's good services.

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

I'll make it a third.

Just finished a lot of new buildings and renovations.

The address is Lake Pleasant but it's actually right on 441 North of Orlando.

Of course I'm biased, grow up there and related to half the church by blood or marriage. :-)

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

Well, we were allowed one soda every two weeks as well as a small bag of penny candy. Other than that it was mama's cooking, iced tea or milk.

It is amazing how the expectations change with each generation. When my wife and I were first married and struggling financially we ate a lot of Kraft Macaroni & Cheese out of a box and fried bologna.

Now when my daughter and her husband are struggling I notice they are still eating out at Chili or Applebees at least several times a week (they do share meals there but........)

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

I know.....Zac and his friends go out to eat at places like O'Charley's, Red Lobster. At that age, I ate at BURGER BARN!!!!

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

At JCM if we went to Danvers instead of Krystals that was a luxury! All of our eating out money had to be saved for Wed and Sunday nights to go to Shoney's to socialize.

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

lol I know that's right.

I loved fried bologna sandwiches when I was a kid. We ate a lot of sweet potatoes, pinto beans, cornbread, and fried potatoes when we were struggling. And we also had 2 huge pecan trees at one time, I never knew there were so many ways to use pecans. :)

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

I visited the church pastored by Bro. Mike Williams a few years ago while on
a Disney World vacation. It was a great service. I attended the Sunday night
service.

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

Or El Burrito's or Pasquales.......sometimes even Western Sizzlin' if we were feelin' really rich! I remember in Bible College going to Burger King and they had an all you could eat salad bar for 69 cents. I ate that so many times! It was just lettuce, cheese and tomatoes with dressing, but it was 69 cents!!!!!!

I've known him since he was born. His dad and uncles are men I respect and call my friends.

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

Isn't Benny Hinn's church in Orlando?? Or did Clint Brown take it over??















:D

They voted in some mouse!

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

We went to Cathedral of Pentecost in Ft Lauderdale this morning and enjoyed it very much. It obvoiusly is a progressive and growing church - very spirited and vibrant.

Bro Elms's B-I-L Daniel Hood preached. I think that means they married sisters. What was these ladies' maiden name, does anyone know?

We considered going to the assembly wher Bro Williams is pastor, but would have been late getting there. We also had a rather lengthy late afternoon service at Boston LobsterFest! :happydance

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

Melanie Elms and Lori Hood are Brother Billy Hale's daughters.

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

Thank You. that is what I thought.

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

My parents were actually in service with the Hales today!

Re: Church in Orlando Area?
 

that's too funny! now it costs about 69 cents to add a measly slice of cheese to your burger!
