I would never attend there because they blew me off. I have never attended a MEGA church because I feel this church is all about making tax free money; the speaker seems more like a motivational coach then a minister trying to portray the teaching of the word.

The live worship leader, who followed up after the message, promoted the book for sale. This made me very uncomfortable and I've spent the weeks since thinking about sellers in the church service and not his wonderful message. Also, no one greeted me at any time during the service and the music was way too loud. I don't like leaving a negative review for a church, but they don't provide a comment card and it's way more important for a church to get it right than a restaurant or boutique.

Because of how supportive they are, I eventually joined and became much more involved. It is hard to express how many wonderful people are a part of this congregation. I've made a lot of friends through First Pres who will likely be a part of my life for as long as it lasts. They offer something for everyone. There are typically 3 services each Sunday including a chapel service at 8:15, a "New Song" service at 9:00 and a traditional service at 11:00. They also have an affiliated Pre-school for families with young children. I can wholeheartedly recommend giving them a try. If you are new to the area or are seeking a new place to worship, First Presbyterian should be at the top of your list of candidates. Hope to see you there.

After my son's third year in a row attending Vacation Bible School at First Sarasota this passed week, I felt compelled to share about my family's experience at this wonderful church. From the moment you step foot on the campus of First Sarasota and their corresponding VBS children's camp, volunteers are there to greet you with huge smiles on their faces. There is a security guard for added peace of mind walking the premises as well as a designated door opener who checks to ensure that you are a parent who is supposed to be there picking up a child. I love both of these aspects - it is obvious that First Sarasota is dedicated to keeping our kids safe. The VBS itself is run so efficiently. From the initial registration, to the check-in process, to the daily drop off and pickup - everything is organized and there are dedicated teams for each step of the process. It is so evident that so much preparation goes into the camp. The children are divided by age, and each room is elaborately decorated every year to bring the theme of the week to life. I wish I would have taken more pictures, because truly they did such a great job at bringing this year's theme of "destination dig" to life! Above all, the volunteers are what make this place so wonderful. Every person we encountered was kind, ready to help and serve in any way, and clearly passionate about children. I am so grateful for all of the people that have poured into my son the last three years. As parents in 2023, it is not an easy feat to find people that we can trust with our kids. However, my husband and I have always had full confidence in the programs and the people of First Sarasota. We love you, First Sarasota!
