This is a review for the church's fall festival. We went on a Saturday night and had some delicious…read moremiddle eastern food - all of it outstanding, but the standouts for me were the kebab, spinach pie, and kibbeh. There was no entrance fee for the festival, but on Saturday night, they had a band performing and there was a $10 cover per person to go in the seated area. We didn't know this until the end of the food line after we paid - we went to go in the ballroom but were told we needed a ticket by someone outside the room. It wasn't really clear that there was any seating available other than in the room with the band, so we did pay the cover since we got so much food and needed to sit, not sure exactly what the entertainment was. The band was fantastic and lively, so we didn't necessarily regret it, just still a bit of a steeper price than entrance for any other cultural festival that also comes with live entertainment and just wasn't made clear from the beginning how it worked until we already had our food. Very cool to see the community go up and dance with the band. I love that in Brickell we have such a culturally rich and diverse institution open to the community.

Ok so let's me it happen Captain... The overall vibe felt like a Church By The Glades type feel and nothing wrong with that... but I come to church to hear the Word of God be preached at a level to sink the Love of God straight into my heart... Did I get that here? Yes, I did. Todays speaking preacher was great. She related her experiences to what we may be going through with life and she coordinated the scriptures great and I could feel my heart connect w/ God(only peeps who connected with God know about this feeling). Overall this church is Gangster for God, and it was a cool visit. But of course I had to eat after and bounce... because... I live in the 954 and stuff.

The kids and youth ministry is absolutely amazing. The worship is real and inspiring. No big egos! There are plenty of ways to get involved and serve across multiple ministries.

Sundays you will find 3 services 9 AM & 11 AM are in English and at 1:30 PM en español. Unity is a spiritual center that believes there's no wrong path to God. Are you a Jew? Welcome. Are you Christian? Come on down. Are you a Baptist? Step right up. Maybe Buddhism is your cup of tea? Namaste, my friend. This congregation is diverse. Black, White, Hispanic, Latino, Gay, Lesbian, Straight, Purple! (Okay, one of those is a bluff - based on the fact that I've never seen a purple people, but they'd be welcomed with open arms!) A typical service includes live music (with a band and choir), meditation, and positive uplifting message, and more spectacular music. There's a children's ministry. As well as special workshops and guest speakers. There's a bookstore on site with books, trinkets, and other spiritual trinkets for purchase to guide you on your spiritual journey. If I had to give this place a theme song it would be the Sister Sledge classic, "We are family!" For a quick spiritual pick me up, community involvement, look no further than UOTB!

Seeking to turn a new leaf, I followed the advice of both Tatyana C and a non-Yelp friend who had great things to say about this church. I'm not going into a theological discourse, but what I like best about Unity in contrast with the religion of my upbringing is it's emphasis on positivity and how the connection with God / Higher Power / the Universe can worked with to better oneself. Unlike a traditional church, the "altar" looks more like a concert auditorium, the membership is diverse, and the minister seems approachable and human. The sermon doesn't feel like you're being talked down to, either and the meditation is refreshing and relaxing. In closing, the "hymn" this past Sunday was non-traditional and very fitting for the New Year. - Natasha Bedingfield's "Unwritten" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7k0a5hYnSI

Here is some information regarding this place. Prior to the First Presbyterian Church, the lot at 609 Brickell Avenue was the location of the home for Edna Rickmers. First Presbyterian purchased the lot at 609 Brickell Avenue in 1948. The church was built and opened in 1949. Andre and Edna Rickmers bought the lot at 609 Brickell Avenue from Mary Brickell shortly after arriving in Miami. The couple arrived to Miami in 1905, a year after they got married in Pittsburgh. Edna was from Pittsburgh and her husband was a ship builder from Germany. He was listed as retired in the 1908 Miami City Directory. The couple was listed at 1805 Brickell (later changed to 609 Brickell), as early as 1908. It is likely they built the home in the cover photograph between 1905 and 1907. Andre and Edna were very active in real estate in the growing Miami area. The couple owned a fair amount of property in today's Omni neighborhood. They also owned the land where the Olympia Theater resides. It was actually Edna Rickmers that gave the building the name "Olympia Theater and Office Building" in 1926. However, Andre was not alive to see the building of the Olympia. It isn't clear the year he died, but Edna Rickmers was listed as a widow by the 1918 Miami City Directory. The home at 609 Brickell Avenue was set toward the back of part of the lot. It was very common for homes on the east side of Brickell Avenue to be located closer to the bay and a distance from Brickell Avenue. The home was razed in 1948 to make room for the church. Following the sale of the property to the church, Edna Rickmers moved a few blocks south to a mansion located at 1927 Brickell Avenue. She lived in this mansion until her death in February of 1956

The First Presbyterian Church of Miami is the city's oldest organized congregation. Early in 1896,…read moreThe Reverend Henry Keigwin, synodical missionary representing the Presbyterian Church U.S.A., reached Ft. Dallas (now Miami), a very small community not yet incorporated. April 1, 1896, three months after he began holding services in a rough board restaurant, the First Presbyterian Church of Miami was organized. Services were held first in a tent donated by Memorial Church of St. Augustine. Within a year this was replaced by a "Pavilion" with a floor, doors and a shingle roof. Both were shared with the Baptists and the Methodists. In 1898, Henry M. Flagler, pioneer builder and developer of Florida, took a personal interest in the siting and the construction of the first church building. On the corner of S.E. Flagler and Third Avenue, it was completed in 1900. Its congregation, swollen in the winter by tourists, was made up mainly of families drawn to the area to build and operate Mr. Flagler's Royal Palm Hotel and his FEC Railroad. In the 1926 hurricane the steeple of this building was destroyed and never replaced. The rapid growth of Miami and the needs of a growing church led, in 1947, to leasing of the downtown property for 99 years and relocating the church to 609 Brickell Avenue, a central location across the river on an avenue of beautiful homes and with ample parking. This sanctuary was finished in 1949. Additions in 1954 and 1964 completed the building as you see it today. The Flagler Memorial Chapel is a replica of the Flagler Street structure and the pews, pulpit, stained glass windows and fixtures are from the original church.
