They have a very "come as you are" attitude towards welcoming people in, which I find very refreshing. You will not be judged if you come in with tattoos or wearing jeans or shorts. At the same time, they stand on Bible, and the teaching is scripturally sound. If you are looking for a church where you can grow and be challenged in your faith, you are welcome here!

Friendly church with solid, Biblical teaching. You recommend to anyone looking for a church home…read more Excellent children's ministry.

My wife and I started attending CF in April of 2018. I was going through a very rough season in…read morelife and when I walked into CF I felt the love of Christ being poured out through His people. Pastor Derek and the rest of the staff have such a love for Christ, it is evident in the teaching and the atmosphere. We always feel so loved at CF and as greeters now ourselves, we do our best to share that love with every person that comes through our doors. The kids ministries are fantastic as well, I had the privilege of sitting in on one of their services a few weeks ago and I was greatly impressed at the teaching as well as the kid's knowledge of the Scripture. Come visit Christ Fellowship, you'll be blessed immensely!

I attended this year's 2025 Easter service the 1230 session. Everything was going great and…read morewonderful until Dereck. The pastor started to speak the lead pastor. He literally told us the minute. He greeted us that this is not a perfect church and if we want to attend the perfect church that we should not come back next weekend, which was definitely not an uplifting way to greet a congregation on Easter Sunday then he read a few scriptures and for some reason supplemented in the scriptures American Christian, he said Jesus does not say he brings his joy to the American Christian. He brings joy to the world and he kept repeating that a second time he read a verse supplemented American Christian and then said no it would be great if it was American Christian, but it's still the whole world I'm not understanding why he was chastising us when 98% of the people there were American Christians. He's automatically implying that we have some type of bias towards others that are not American Christians. This line of preaching was so inappropriate. I literally wanted to stand up and say, why are you chastising us but of course I didn't. I left them a voicemail. It was not returned. He also talked about how we need prayer in this time more than ever which can be construed innocently, but he did mention the political climate if he's a progressive activist pastor he just has to say so and then 90% of the people will not attend so please do not hide behind a cloak Dereck thank you. Also, lastly, I would like to say that I attended Christ Fellowship in Port St. Lucie Florida for many years and this line of Sunday service was never used. The pastor never spoke like this. He was only uplifting so this is not the norm for Christ Fellowship.

Since my last review I mentioned this place was marked as Permanently Closed. Looking into this to…read moremake sure the business owner wasn't lying or hiding shady business, I decided to look into this. Me and my husband showed up to this church around 12 PM today 8/10/2025 which was a Sunday. There were still some people leaving service. They were kind enough to disclosed to me that Service just finished up and I was too late... this means the Permanently Closed front, was clearly the business owner saw my review, and the moment I brought Donald Trumps new ICE executive law into this, making mention they removed the banner after said law was passed, they marked the business as Permanently Closed to go into hiding... Because they feared my review and lack pride in their religion. Not only that, they wanted to silence all future reviews to draw attention to the fact the place was still open. My guess is the people that were going to this place before any of this happened are in the know about when service is, because right now, for outsiders, it's IMPOSSIBLE to know when service is unless you're just passing by. Or the people in there are doing some suspicious activity like a cult that the police should be made aware about. The Bottom Line is, the owner of this establishment is LYING about being closed and services are still happening. NOT a good look for your church! No body wants to go to a service as a shady location! How can you hope to be Inclusive of anyone other than people who are already going if no one even knows when to show up to worship with you? How can you claim to have religious pride when you look like you're suspiciously in hiding? Needless to say, I requested an edit detailing this specific information on Google Maps. Information which was approved. You're not fooling me.

Even though it is technically a Russian Orthodox Church, the congregation includes several nationalities and everyone treats each other with love and respect. I have never had such deeply profound spiritual experiences as I have had within the walls of this church. Even if you are unsure of the theology or the traditions, it is well worth coming to experience the 2,000 year old traditions for yourself. The church also includes a small bookstore and anyone there would be happy to make reading suggestions! In addition to Divine Liturgy at 10:00am on Sundays followed by Lunch, the church is also home to Wednesday night Vespers Service at 6:30pm, and Saturday night Vigil at 5:30pm. All are welcome to visit!

Did she wanna still see friends yes but I will NOT allow adults to treat my child that way ! She feels neglected from the daycare and honestly it looks like discrimination. We were on the gov. Program and although there is other children of diff racial backgrounds mine was always always the one picked on or called to go home when other children were doing same stuff if not worse ! this school use to be amazing for years then when the bigger school that was part of it shut down they went down hill very badly ! under staffed and can't get anyone to work for what little they pay so it affects the children and parents who pay a pretty hefty price to send their kids. we are very hurt but God works in mysterious ways so when one door closes another opens ! Also have a whole coffee bar at the front that is funded my the people !
