Also, St. Augustine has quite a few very historic churches, parishes, shrines, and religious destinations so you can almost make a full day of visiting these sites.

We are running kinda late because we had trouble finding it. We go in and no one is overly excited or friendly. In fact we had to find our own way to the sanctuary! We were treated better at the Greek Orthodox Church! We find some seats. I'm immediately turned off by this church because there was a lead pastor and some woman(maybe his wife) talking about their mission trip to 1st world countries! This is my problem with the American church today! These pastors claim to be called by the scripture to go out and spread the message of God throughout the world, while Rome burns around them. They all are arrogant in this interpretation of Mark 16:15-18. It sickens me that this church literally used the phrase "don't be Americanized" of the church when they never mentioned anything they are doing for their own community, their own congregation, or their own country. Imagine what America would look like today if these American churches put even a third of what they put into South America, Europe, Asia into American cities, speaking the gospel to the lost, and the hopeless here at home. Would we have this invasion going on at our southern border? Would we have the LGBTQ+ taking over as the new American religion? Here we have in Saint Augustine a homeless and drug problem that you can see if you ever venture into the historic district once and there they stood on stage today for nearly 40 minutes talking about how they change the lives of these first world country people when in their own backyard, there is lost and broken people. I'm so tired of hearing how wealthy America is and how we're the bread basket of the world. Well, Americans are struggling to pay rent, pay mortgages, to buy groceries and get gas. Russell and I had to get an AC guy out here last night cost us $225 and you know what? He said it was his second job. And here Russell and I sit with Amelia in a church for two hours with no message of Palm Sunday or Holy Week, but briefly mentioning Easter next weekend to say that they'll be super busy next week, so "be prepared." At the end, Russell and I felt like we just wasted two hours of our day not being fulfilled with any message. In fact, we think the church resembles closely to the one that is portrayed in the movie Four Christmases! It wasn't a good impression for newcomers which I found hilarious because they said if you're new, give us five tries before you make your decision. Ridiculous! America is dying! She needs Christians to stop being arrogant to come together and save her! Before you can go throughout the world and preach the wonders of the Lord, you must take care of your own people. Americans have become the forgotten!

The pumpkin patch generally opens the first full weekend of October, and sells pumpkins of all shapes and sizes 11 AM to 7 PM daily. I have family in the area and always make an effort to visit the patch as early as possible in the season because what you see is what you get! They tend to run out of inventory before Halloween day. The historic church building is a beautiful ivory-colored structure, and it's such a beautiful sight to see it surrounded by bright orange pumpkins each fall. Visiting the pumpkin patch is definitely one of my favorite holiday traditions. The folks who operate the patch are friendly, appreciative, and incredibly helpful. If you're open to a less than traditional visit to a pumpkin patch, I'd highly suggest visiting First United Methodist Church.
