Last night ( August 4 ) I attended one of the performances at this church called Singin' in the Rain. During the intermission I went to get a cup of coffee at the Cafe 4 inside the building. They had just closed so I asked if there was another place to get some coffee (meaning another place within the church area). A young girl with long brown hair working behind the counter shouted at me in an angry manner "STARBUCKS DOWN THE ROAD!" as she stomped past me into the kitchen area. I was shocked at her behavior. I told a young man wearing dark rimmed glasses who was behind the counter about her disrespectable behaviour. He clearly had the same attitude as the girl and said "well, we have to deal with a lot! ". I said "can you please tell that young girl that whatever is bothering her to not let her anger rule her behavior towards people". He said (in a disrespectful manner) "I'm NOT going to tell her that". First of all Jesus had to deal with a lot too and He was never mean to people. Second, if someone is serving coffee in a church then they are a representative of the church and should conduct themselves accordingly. I explained what happened to two gentlemen at the door to the theatre, they were appalled and very apologetic which is why I gave my review 3 stars. The performance was great and I will only go to this church for future performances of the theatre but not to worship.
