  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Our {my GF and I} impressions of this congregation over all was very good. The main thing that stood out was that they were very friendly. Unfriendliness is a deal breaker for me. We actually sat behind a group of people that were not only friendly but they invited us into their prayer circle during the service and we could tell that they not only had genuine faith but gave off a spirit of love. My GF was moved to tears during the prayer time. Before the service started the associate pastor made his way over to us and welcomed us. He was the one who ended up giving the message during the service and I thought he was informative and passionate with the subject. We attended the late service which is their contempory style service. My GF was raised RC and I have a new found fondness for the liturgy so we are planning on attending an earlier service that is more liturgical. Overall we would give it a thumbsup! :thumbsup:

That's great to hear. It's always wonderful to feel welcome at a church. My own church is the same way.
Cool! What synod is your congregation affiliated with?
