Lake Magdalene United Methodist Church

La Shin

No concern for the neighborhood or the traffic generated by their activities. Incessant fundraising. Won't route all their traffic through their own parking lot rather than clogging up the traffic for residents. Pastor Steven said that "The church was here first." Nice. I would expect nothing less than from a man who has his own name in lights in front of the church rather than Jesus's. When I visited many years ago, the people were not friendly. The incessant fundraising like we were just cash cows. When their Xmas tree vendor dumped a huge black plastic bag of their waste in my front yard, I called and left messages in a couple of different extensions but heard nothing for 5 days. I had to post a sign in my front yard beside the trash before pastor Steven called me. He was more upset about my sign than about his vendor tossing trash in my front yard. No apology, just a list of the many ways I inconvenienced him by asking him to be accountable for his vendors. Just say No to this place.

I am sadden by the lack of acceptance of all of Gods people by the the pastor at this church. God’s love should be given freely. A pastor by definition should provide spiritual care and rejection of LGBTQ people full acceptance in the church is in direct opposition to that mission.

Great church great outreach program they are uniquely positioned to serve the community in a way that my church in Atlanta. Cascade United Methodist Church in southwest Atlanta. I would feel at home at this church but I realize I'm in Tampa Florida and the twain shall never meet but is church service at community and I'm impressed with the fact I said they do it naturally.

Great church this church is very busy very active in the community. I take a class and creative writing associated with University of South Florida's lifelong learning osher and they have other classes in learning German and a few other classes right there in the church in the meeting rooms and it's exciting to see this church involved so heavily and what's going on in and around the community here they have a food pantry which is stocked with nothing but good food for people who needed the most. I recommend this church for anybody that's looking for a place to serve and worship in fullness.
