Harvest Bible Chapel Rochester is an independent church officially planted at St John Fisher…read morecollege in March 2016. Services are at 10am in Basil Hall, with children's ministries in the classrooms on the second floor. (Can't miss all the signs set up to show the way! ) The church has four main pillars: proclaiming the authority of God's word without apology, lifting high the name of Jesus through worship, believing firmly in the power of prayer, and sharing the good news of Jesus with boldness.

It feels odd "reviewing" a church, and I have been reluctant to do just that for several months…read more However, my experience at Monroe Park Vineyard was so exceptional, that I think it might be helpful for others searching. Right off the bat, you know this church is different - they meet at their community space. It looks like a coffee shop with sofas scattered around a large room. The walls are brightly painted and adorned with local artists' work - work that is available for sale. The pastor is female and enthusiastically requests that you don't call her Pastor, but rather by her name, Dorothy. While many churches recognize the concept of each member of the body of Christ having a meaningful role, MVP sees it to fruition. A collaborative approach is maintained every Sunday morning: each message concludes with attendees sharing their thoughts are on the subject. This adds dimension to the teaching, and also builds community, as various individuals share their experiences and life lessons. MPV welcomes diversity and it is well reflected in it's congregants socio-economically, geographically, and racially. The church's main directive is simply to meet people where they are and introduce them to the love of God - a love that does not require anything from you - but merely that you accept it. I had considered myself a post-believer: one who carried the undesirable residue of "churchianity"and as a result vacillated between agnosticism and atheism. That ended several weeks after attending MVP. This church literally changed my life. If you desire to have a relationship with the God, but the thought of stepping into a church scares you, I strongly encourage to visit MPV. You never know...

We love worshipping our Lord! Read the Psalms-David worshipped with instruments and singing. There are ear plugs for those who can't enjoy the volume of the music.

How am I the first to review that FABULOUS church?!?!…read more We are up in NY visiting friends and family this week. My sister-in-law invited us to go to church with her Sunday morning. My first thought was "Church on vacation??? I'd rather sleep in." But we decided to go and I'm so glad we did!!! Pulling up to this church, we were surprised by the sheer SIZE of it! It's huge!! There was even a parking attendant directing traffic! Outside the church, there were fun outdoor games: cornhole, ladderball, etc. as well as a food truck and coffee tent. Inside... wow. STUNNING! I LOVED how modern the decor was! Just GORGEOUS! Very spacious! I was SHOCKED that there was a Starbucks in the lobby! WHAAAAAAAT?!?! My sister-in-law had checked the kids into the kids program (Sunday school???). For safety, the children and parent(s) get identification stickers which match up. Everyone was so friendly and inviting!!! We felt very welcomed! Kind of sad that we don't have a cool church like this near us! We found out that if you go to their website, you can watch their services LIVE or ARCHIVED where ever you are!!! We will definitely have to check that out! HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

It's absolutely stunning as are the grounds. If your Buddhist or not you will feel at ease and at peace with a higher power just walking around or just standing on the property. I had wanted to check this Temple out for a while. I believe during the year they have events and they do actually open up the temple. While we rolled up we saw some people/staff and we waved and they waived back and I asked if it was ok to check out the site and he said yes and photos are welcome. We also saw a Monk driving around in a golf cart. We visited during the early Summer and all these beautiful flowers and plants were all flowering. The grounds are meticulously kept. Like any place of worship just be respectful. I will be back. Namaste

Many people talked to each other in the congregation during the service which I found to be quite rude and made my experience very bad. When my wife and I visited Holy Spirit we were welcome as we entered the sanctuary provided bulletins. The inside of this church is very large. We went to the 2nd service and so surprised to read in the bulletin the number of people that turn out to the services. I believe in was a couple hundred at least. They have a very nice choir where you can actually hear them sing over the congregation. Many churches I've been to it has been you can barely hear the choir at all. I found the children's portion of the service to be very welcoming to kids of all ages. All and all we will be visiting again. Such a wonderful place to attend worship. The priest we met during our visit was quite nice. We had a chance to speak with him regarding our visit as it was our first time there. He was surprised to hear that we heard of the church because it was where we went to vote this year.
