What happened to Autumn Ridge? A half decade ago they must have ranked right up there with the most…read moreinfluential groups in Rochester. Every time we turned around it seemed we would run into some really great people volunteering in one of Autumn Ridge's different volunteer programs. They must have had hundreds of programs at the time. When we drove past their campus back then, the parking lot was FULL... every night of the week. Sundays were so big they required Rochester Police Department officers to manage the traffic flow entering and exiting their campus... every week. Even had a garden just off the entrance to the church that distributed more than a ton of food to the Channel One food bank we read about once and would see the volunteers out there all summer working in that garden. Recently, we attended a half full Sunday and now we understand... not a great experience.

It is my pleasure to review this church home! I first came to Lighthouse Family Church in…read moreOctober of 2011. I felt immediately welcomed...just like coming "home". I was new to Rochester and had visited several churches, but I knew that this was the one for me. Pastors Pete and LeeAnn Burt have deep faith and a love of the Lord. They long for the full manifestation of Revival here in Rochester and on the face of the earth. They are joyful, humble and caring servants to the Body of Christ. The Word is taught and the full gospel is manifested in this church. I would recommend this community to anyone who is truly searching for a church home. It is like a hidden treasure chest in the heart of Rochester. Come and be refreshed!

The serve lunch every Saturday...supposedly…read more I visited them 3-4 times for this purpose, and each time I've been as polite, endearing and gracious as I possibly can. And each time they ignore the table I sit at, no matter where it happens to be situated. Most recently (today), I sat for about 30 minutes without any food or beverage, after which point I felt discouraged and left. I didn't feel very welcome at all. I get that I shouldn't be critical of free food. It's not a restaurant. I don't think it's ungrateful though if you travel somewhere for lunch and walk away with an empty stomach. If one time I was forgotten about by one person, I'd of course be understanding and forgiving, but each time to be forgotten by multiple people. It's obvious that it's personal, and it hurts. I don't think these parishioners are good people.

This church is active in the community and has outreach to several organizations. There is a teriffic childrens program and the leaders are knowlegable, entertaining, and are proud of their positions. Lastly, besides the high quality personnel and programs, are the amazing pastors. The message is clear and they deliver it in a memorable way. They are always happy to see you, are conversational and are interested in YOU. No handshake, no typical "have a nice day" than next please. They're warm and invite you to stay, mingle and have a cup of coffee. If Mayo brought you here, or you're visiting relations, or even live in town, I invite you to spend an hour of a Sunday morning to feel welcome, relaxed and uplifted. Peace.

After attending two services I'm left with nothing more than this is a 'feel good' church with…read morelittle to no biblical teaching. Lots of technology, little substance. Todays sermon was a podcast based production on leadership. I thought we were taught to be followers of Christ. Instead, the service was surprisingly egocentric and nothing was taught of the nature of God and following Christ. If you are looking for a church that excels at eye-catching graphics and pop worship music, this would be a good feed. If you are looking for a reason to open your Bible and dig a little deeper, I suggest looking elsewhere.

The music was amazing, the pastor's message was direct and relatable. The amount of time in each area of the service was perfect and not drug out. There was no pressure from anyone and they made you feel welcome. Everyone seemed genuine. I even ran into my aunt and cousin who first ever brought me to God, which I am forever grateful for! His timing always! Will definitely return!
