Rather than start a bunch of new threads when someone may be interested in a church in a particular area I thought I would start one here. It is something a person would be currently interested in. =)
SO
I will start it off. I am interested in a church in the Cape Coral/ Ft Myers, FL area. Now for me you need to know that I am not interested in just if it is UPC, WPF, ALJC, AAFCJ, PAW, etc etc
I am interested if anyone knows a standout, powerful, dynamic church in that area. Would love to be able to visit them when I am over in that area. Which I hope to be very soon.

Isn't their existence sinful?
I saw some people on the side of the road one Sunday on the way to church and I pulled over to help them.
Before I was done, I realized they were jehovah's witnesses.
I wished I hadn't stop to help them. I don't like assisting, encouraging and especially hepling them and mormons.
I would place this UUC church in the same category or maybe even beneath the jw's and mormons.
Am I wrong?
I think you are wrong, but what God thinks is more important than what I think. Back to what I think....
I think that when God says we should love our enemies, that He means just that. I would help anyone in need, because I think Jesus would help anyone in need. Who's to say that you might not develop a relationship with someone from an experience like that and they come to know Jesus?

I pray for the scales to be removed and I pray for them with fervent love just as the Lord has called me to do. Scripture tells us to Love God first and then our neighbor as ourselves. - We cannot pick and choose who to love and not to love - God isn't giving you an option - I just preach it to them when they come over - I invite them in for coffee and have had a Bible study with the JWs. I told them I feared that they were lied to and misled and we prayed - they left - I still pray for them. I got kicked out of a church that did not show love/they wouldn't say it but they hated me and told others I was a Jezebel and other various slanderous things - all the people I thought were my 'sisters' and brothers were told not to talk to me - nice huh? - it was UPCI - I moved on
after being mistreated and shunned. God says I need to pray for them too. Why? LOve? Joy hey?!? If one says that they are 'religious' and they do not love - their religion is in vain. I am just giving you what I learned I now seek to find people who want to be taught about love and God's love - the Holy Ghost helps me do this because if it were just me - I stink . Praying for you and the love thing. k
