This church is unlike any other church I have ever attended. As you approach the front doors…read morethere's always so many happy loving faces to greet you, they are genuinely happy to see you and really make you feel special. This isn't one of those kind of churches that make you feel like an awkward outsider, like you could never measure up to the perfection. The pastor Scott Pugh and his wife Vanessa are so nice and down to earth that you can feel comfortable being EXACTLY who you are , especially if you feel far from God I would recommend this church 100% it's nothing fancy, no glitz and glamor and fake perfection. Just a bunch of people who will except you for who you are. What a fantastic place to learn the truth about God's love!

Very understandable they wanted to do a background check. But what came back was very very disturbing! I had a misdemeanor charge when I was a teenager from 30 years ago and they told me I wasn't good enough to donate my time! Shame shame shame on you! That's okay you didn't break me, I still want to donate my time. I am disabled I don't work and I want to help people. Since when does a church JUDGE you? Oh I feel so much better finally getting out of my system. Don't go to the church they're evil

I have attended Friends Church for 15 years and have been through many pastor changes. I have…read morealways enjoyed whatever the current pastors have brought to the church, no matter how different. However, with our current pastor I have never been so excited about the direction of the church. Our pastor has a heart to follow God and take the rest of us along for the ride. His sermons are biblical and relevant. Watch a podcast, they are posted on the whfriends.org (they are listed under "Latest Message") and see for yourself. Is the pastor entertaining, yes he is, and forgive him for that, it's the gift God gave him. If you can look past having a good time (a little sarcasm) the message will blow you away. God created us all so different and he created pastors different too, so that they can reach God's varied people. I pray that you can find the Pastor/church that helps you grow biblically! Friends Church has so much to offer aside from the sermons. Growth groups/ Discipleship classes/ (Sunday School, for all ages, even seniors), these groups range from studying books of the bible, recovery groups, to marriage classes ect! They have church for the disabled, called "Just As I Am." They have special events all the time, volunteer opportunities/ mission work, men's, women's and student retreats and "Night's out." Friends wants you to have community! I could go on and on but I think you get the picture. Friends is a place you want to go to and keep coming back to, because JESUS is there! P.S. I forgot to mention the new children's Sunday School Bible curriculum......All I can say is, I wish I still had children this age so we could experience it together as a family. Beth Kirtland
