My husband and I found this church after doing some research online. We have been very interested…read morein Catholicism for a while now, and since being in Fort Collins, decided it was time to really dive in. The church is beautiful and mass is lovely. They have 5 different mass times to choose from on the weekend (Saturdays @ 4pm, Sundays @ 7:30am, 9:30am, 11:30am, and 5pm). We went to our first mass at the 9:30am time on a Sunday. It just so happened that this was a Sunday where they had a little "fair" with booths to talk about all the different parts of the church to get involved in. This was great because we were able to talk to other members about the faith. They informed us of a class starting in just a couple of weeks called Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults to help gain a better understanding of the Catechism and Catholicism as a whole. This past week we joined the 7:30am mass and then went to the first RCIA class. This was a wonderful experience and I feel like we are going to learn so much and am looking forward to all it has to offer. Everyone we have talked with has been so kind and very willing to answer any & all questions we have had.

I loved going to Faith for about five years. There I met a community of committed Christians, who,…read morewhile more conservative than I, tended to focus on issues and problems that united the church rather than those that divide it. I served for years on the Hospitality team, just doing things like making strawberry basil lemonade and cucumber mint water for hundreds at a time, plus the monthly waffle night where we made hundreds of Belgian waffles with all the possible accoutrements. But I discovered my welcome was skin deep, even to those who pretended to love me (I'd even flown the Atlantic to cater a picnic in Paris for them), as I struggled with issues of homosexuality. The teaching staff was woefully undereducated on this issue, which was surprising considering it's massive impact in the culture wars. Long story short: I was given an ultimatum that I must not ever publicly state that homosexual relationships could be of equal moral value to heterosexual ones. If I didn't comply, I'd no longer be welcome. I didn't, and left, deeply hurt by the knowledge that my ostensible friends and "church family" chose their comfortable, lazy church where no one really questions anything over a deep, fruitful relationship of years standing.

THE best church in Fort Collins, imho. We were fortunate to find Plymouth in 2006 and haven't…read morelooked back. It is a progressive, open church congregation. One in which my family and I are encouraged to think about our faith and how we bring our faith into the communities in which we live and the broader world. I love the pastors; I love the people who make up our congregation. There are some truly amazing and knowledgeable members who share their gifts with the rest of us. Furthermore, this is a church that cares about social justice issues. Raising my children in this faith community has assisted us in teaching them to be caring and conscientious citizens of the world. Plymouth has truly had an impact for our family. I am so grateful that we stumbled upon this community nearly 10 years ago!

Plymouth does a good job of articulating a progressive Christian voice in our community. They…read moredon't push easy or doctrinaire answers to faith questions, but encourage people to bring their brains and questions to church. Plymouth's morning services reflect a traditional Protestant style of readings, hymns and a sermon, with the choir alternating singing at the earlier and the later service. It's worth noting that while the singing is usually from the hymnal, this hymnal uses updated language, sometimes modern lyrics to familiar tunes, and tunes from a wide variety of cultures. One unusual feature is that after the final hymn and benediction, most of the congregation sits down to hear the organist play the postlude -- it's worth listening to as part of worship, not just background music as everyone leaves -- it's that good! The evening service is far more informal and experimental, usually having jazz or world music and a relaxed structure. They call it "an alternative to alternative worship." Children are welcome in the worship services, noise, wiggles and all, and have a children's sermon when they're invited down front. Parents are supplied with coloring pages and picture books to help the smaller ones have something to do during slower parts of the service. There is also professional nursery care for infants and toddlers during the services. Plymouth isn't exactly a "mega-church" as the poster below describes; the two morning services have around 150-200 people each which is the capacity of the sanctuary, and the more informal evening service has 30-50 people. There's also a variety of classes, service projects, and small fellowship groups that meet through the week, so you can connect with other people on a personal level. Certainly no need for traffic cops -- though turning left out of the parking lot onto Prospect can be a challenge because of the street traffic, sometimes it's quicker to use the back entrance onto Lake Street. (The Islamic Center next door on Lake Street also lets them use their parking lot on Sundays.) They have an "education for all" hour between the two morning worship services, with children's education at the same time as several adult classes. People from both services attend the same Sunday school classes. The adult classes provide a rotating mix of discussions. Some are on spiritual topics like Bible, spiritual practices or theology, and other classes explore how faith impacts social, economic, or environmental issues. Children's classes are taught with a careful consideration for the varied learning styles different kids have (verbal, physical, musical, etc.) They often have guest speakers in the adult ed classes, and occasionally bring in major scholars for special programs. Perhaps most noteworthy about this church is the work members do on social justice issues in the broader community. Various groups work on homelessness, immigration, environmental justice, and LGBT advocacy. (The church supports marriage equality, and performs weddings for gay or lesbian couples on the same basis as for heterosexual couples.) They really try to walk the talk!

Applause to some great sermons I have heard here and the worship is blessed. When I first went to…read moreFoundations, I had no idea about the history. Evidently, they broke off from another church due to the adultery of the old pastor. Props to them for breaking away and starting new with a new pastor in a spirit of holiness. Have heard a lot of good sermons. At the same time, I am concerned about several things. Jesus Himself said that the church is full of true born again believers who are walking as Christ directs (the sheep) and make believers (the goats) who attend church but are not in Christ (carnal). One day, the truth will be exposed as to who is in which category. What is going on with the some prayer team leaders and the small group ministry at Foundations? They let a gal who was booted off of the prayer team in her old church in Berthoud lead the Wednesday prayer group and is quite controlling. People go to her group and often never return. I heard through the grapevine that the guy who started the prayer team says she has a demon. He is prone to saying people he doesn't like have a demon (a Jezebel spirit, a Leviathon spirit). Is this spiritual abuse? Competition, lust for power and slander prevails while Jesus weeps. Then there is M, an elderly lady on the prayer team who criticizes the pastor and the church in the way they do things. Why is she allowed on the prayer team. Small Group Leadership: I listened to the guy who coaches people who want to lead a small group. The impression several of us get is that if you want to lead a group, you cannot be too honest about what the Bible says if someone asks a question. We love everyone here, including gays and trans. A gay married couple wanted to be in a leadership position and were disappointed when told no. Pastor speaks plainly about homosexuality being a sin, but did anyone feel okay with telling them in love and gentleness in the small group? Did they try to help them out of this sinful lifestyle? I call this "Christianity Light" where no one can be too honest in the group about the Word because someone might be offended. Is Jesus weeping? Is He a fan of all of this?

My marriage now is better than it has ever been. In my experience the leadership has demonstrated uncommonly raw honesty, authentic vulnerability and unwavering commitment to reach the lost and hurting souls (Christian and non-Christian alike) in Northern Colorado. You will find they have a ministry that doesn't pull punches and tells the truth about sexual bondage, internet pornography, marital struggles, addiction, financial health, sharing the good news with your neighbors, and so much more. In today's cultural climate it is very encouraging to get reinforced here. My kids are grown, but I can tell they have a pretty amazing children's ministry. The worship band frequently drives me to tears. There are lots of special events and opportunities to get involved and connected in small groups.

I have not attended church in some time actually. Faith is personal to me. It is likely personal to everyone. I felt at peace walking into this church. It did not feel large as many do. It gave the look of tradition. Parking is plentiful and there are 4 doors including an ADA accessible door. There are stairs but there is also an elevator, again ADA accessible. I liked the lobby area and there is an area off to the right and stairs going down as well. The chapel is up the stairs. They have a water fountain feature in green marble when you walk in. It is very interesting. There is a lot of seating with the traditional areas of bench kneelers and bibles in the backsides of the benches. I like how the layout is positioned. There is a large organ piano in the back upper level. Many glass paintings and statues throughout the church. I thought that the wood alters were well done. They feel like something God/Jesus would prefer over something gaudy. Jesus was a carpenter after all. My favorite is the tile work as you approach the alter. It is a picture of the Last Supper. The Priest, Father Tomasz, explained that there was an incident where some hot coals fell on the carpeted flooring. They decided to fix it with the tile picture. I thought it was very nicely done. He also mentioned that they are going to be renovating/updating soon. I hope it does not lose its traditional look. I did not take a picture as I personal feel it wasn't tactful. I was there for a personal reason. It is my understanding that taking pictures in church is frowned upon and shouldn't be done. That makes sense to me. This church is over 100 years old. I think Father Tomasz had said late 1800's but was made official early 1900's.
