Faith Assembly Church Review

Love this church. Anyone can come and be apart of a true path for their life

I attended a wedding here at the end of 2018 and the cathedral was beautiful! It looked like something out of a Walt Disney fairytale. If you have the budget I would highly recommend having your wedding here.

The best church in Orange County. We are so blessed to have such a good church. Amen

Great Church. The Band plays really good Gospel music. The Pastors are all nice specially Pastor Carl. Pastor Johnny sings very good. People are very friendly, and many activities and Classes you can sign up for free This is a good place to connect with other Christian's and to grow spiritually.

Best place to renew and revived your spirit. Pastor Carl and Sister Alice is always available to speak to and mentor members as well as visitors. I miss my faith family during COVID-19.

Great place to learn and connect with god ,truly a place where you feel the presence of God

Worst experience - all about the money and getting as many people into the door as possible. It is all nice and jolly at the beginning but once you're in, you are pressured to give give give! This church didn't pay for all of the amenities by themselves, that's for sure!!! Christianity is supposed to be about helping others, not lining the pocketbooks of the owners......... Community outreach minimal or biased for friends that they know.

This is my favorite church in Orlando. I can feel the presence of God here and the gospel is preached in a pure, simple and passionate way. The songs are totally geared towards worship, is joyful and made with love. It is a serious church, has an excellent structure, is very organized, has many events throughout the year and is a church committed to Missions. Pastors and members are receptive and loving. I really recommend this place.

I like the way they worship God,and the pastor is a man of God.blessings.

Love this church! People are super friendly and very welcoming!

This has been about the worst experience coming here that I could imagine and it's only getting worse. You are constantly asked for money over and over again. They even have credit card machines everywhere for you to "charge" your tithe, I'm sorry but I haven't seen something that tacky and desperate in a long time. Credit card machines? You know people struggle with debt and how much people can lose when it overcomes them, yet you provide an easy way for them to get further into it? I guess as long as you get yours huh? Carl preaches guilt laced messages about how none of us give enough so we'll all line up and feed their machines, it's really sickening. You're made to feel as though no matter how much you've given, it's not enough, yet the building we are sitting in and the extreme opulence all around you in this place clearly shows that they themselves could be giving a whole lot more to less fortunate churches/people instead of trying so hard to show their success. I had gone here years ago and moved away and have recently come back and this place has lost all of its heart. It is a business now, nothing more. Pastor Carl, it's a shame what you've become. You are nowhere near the man I always thought you were, it's really sad. Good luck in your journey to wealth and fame, it's very clearly your main objective. I wish you the best.

Love it. The praise is very anointed. Very friendly users.And a beautiful place.

I have been going to this church for over 15 years. Good ground to plant your family! This church has not only been a positive impact to the central Florida community but builds and plants churches all over the world and sends missionaries to every corner of the world. It's extremely comforting to know our time and tithes are going to good ground to further the Kingdom of God. Thank you Pastor Carl and Alice Stephens for your leadership and faithfulness in letting our Lord use you as a tool in His hand for the work of the Kingdom!

Amazing!!.. Absolutely the place to go when all seems impossible. A place to fill you right back up with the light and spirit of the lord. Don't hesitate just show up and receive fellowship. I promise you will walk out feeling brand new. Praise the lord!!..

I saw the review of one star and read what this person had to say about a church I love dearly. First I do not get offended because it is one person s opinion but I will tell you I have been attending Faith Assembly of God since 1997 and it has been an amazing experience. I have witness the transformation the church has been going through and it is a church centered on the Word of God. Proverbs 14:31 Whoever oppresses a poor man insults his Maker, but he who is generous to the needy honors him. Faith Assembly honors God because it is a giving and generous church that reaches out to the community. Pastor Carl does not have to apologize for asking us to tithe because he is clearly honoring God. I can easily invest my funds in the things of the world but as for me and my house we will serve the Lord Joshua 24:15. My advice to those who still have doubt if you want to see how your tithe is being invested get involved with the church.

Amazing church people are soo nice its very hospitable love it here!!

Such an amazing place to be with the whole family!
Love to be here, grow here, and encounter new things here at Faith Assembly!

I love Faith Assembly of God! My family and I have been members for about 4 years. They offer so many Sunday school classes, weekday fellowship, prayer, Bible Institute, child care for all services even for special needs children and much more. Pastor Carl is an awesome Pastor who loves his church and community he does whatever he can to fill the needs of the people (finance classes, food assistance, clothing bank, car car for single moms and the list goes on). I am very thankful to be a part of such a wonderful church.

This church is the most POWERFUL place you will walk into. It is beyond measure the best place for wisdom. It will move you towards the Lord in the best way possible. Pastor Carl is incredible!

I love this church so much. I ve been going here for a couple of years, but this year it is very upsetting that they do not take safety precautions to the people in the church by not or requiring mask for them and not having proper social distancing between others instead they refuse to keep people safe. Although they have nice services and great with kids.

Awesome Group of People.
Huge Building to Gather at and Worship God and to receive The Word and the Ministering of The Holy Spirit.
And of course...All the People that attend are full of love.

A great place to get closer to God and have fellowship with one another, the worship team is awesome!

Never knew God until I started attending Faith! This church is unlike any church I have ever attended! Came here during a time when my life had fallen apart! The altar call saved my life, my marriage, my family! The praise worship with pastor John is absolutely anointed with the Holy Spirit! You know those goosebumps that American Idol are always getting when a really good singer performs!!! Pastor John delivers these goosebumps every single time only it comes with a strong heavenly dose of God and his son Jesus Christ!!!! They have so many free! Yes, you heard it right, free services for people who need help with your marriage, anger, substances, you name it! They can help you and they care about you!!! If you are looking for a place, a church to call home! This one is it!!! Pastor Carl is bluntly honest, preaches the word but doesn t sugar coat anything! It s important to have a pastor who tells it how it is! The visiting pastors/guest speakers are equally amazing! They have painting date nights, women and men God encounters, and so much more!!! I go to church and I never know what I m gonna get! Never boring! Always exciting! God is present at this church! I ve cried with joy during the praise worship and during the sermons! Two thumbs for this church! Been attending for 2 years now and don t plan to go anywhere again! Oh and did I mention my 2 daughter s age 6 and 10 love their Kids Way program. While the adults worship, the kids have fun in a theatrical top of the line kids praise with costumed team members! You can t ask for more!!!!

I want with my family for Easter wow such a big beautiful place I felt the presence of God. I felt the happiness the joy the peace in my heart I recommend people to go with their family. to Faith Assembly. MayJesus son of God bring peace to the

Great service. Friendly staff. Lots of activities to feed your soul.

Church is nice! Lots of activities but a majority of the people at church were NOT wearing mask. There was NO social distancing. Pastor was shaking people's hands without a mask. I saw an Usher telling people to move over so other people can sit. Usually every other aisle is closed off for distancing. Not this place. There were definitely no Covid restrictions.

Saw the Last Legacy production and it was beautiful!! This was a gorgeous church and they seemed to sincerely care.

I tried to go to this church twice in two different years. There are so many people, no one greeted me and I was distracted by the coffee aroma as I walked in. I felt like I was at a hotel resort. Nothing Godly about the place at all. I didn't feel anything but emptiness. The girl at that time where I went to drop off my child was completely overwhelmed and alone. My child didn't want to stay after two minutes. I took her to the quiet room and after a while, we gave up. It didn't feel like a fellowship, just a building with people all into themselves, food, great architecture, and more. I went to worship and feel the Lord's presence. I instead felt overwhelmed with the materialistic atmosphere. No love there. I joined a church 30 minutes from my home, much much smaller but warm and friendly and a family. So much more worth the time and drive. Sorry but I tried, but we miss the whole point of going to church. It is a nice building and when I tell people where i live, I just say, "you know the big mega church." People don't know anything else but the pretty building. What about Jesus????? Blessed are those who have found their church home. It wasn't for me but I don't knock it if it has saved someone else.

Love the atmosphere. Great people of God. Worship is awesome. My son is so happy to attend the children church.

Great church, great people and a world class staff serving the people of their community in such a God honoring way. So proud to call Faith Assembly and their great staff friends.

I had been looking for a church that not only would be wonderful with Teaching the word of God but also a church that was happy, family oriented, amazing worship music. I found that at Faith. I live on Goldenrod and seeing the church I kept saying wow so many people go there I wonder what the hype is. God heard me he guided me there and BOOM I fell in love!!! I have been reacquainted with God. I have never seen a church so for family and so wonderful. Pastor Carl and Paster Alice beautiful people. I love them so much because I feel that God placed them in my life to reconnect me with Him and Teach me his word. Its wonderful I can have breakfast or dinner with my kids before worship. My baby Victor who is 7 is now a Royal Ranger and he enjoyed his first year going to camp. He loves Jesus so much that for his birthday he requested a birthday cake for him and Jesus since his is on the 26th and Jesus is on the 25th. and Yes we got him his cake and yes he was happy that he was able to share his cake with Jesus. But best of all He gave himself to Jesus and had his Water Baptism! I love you Faith! God Bless all my Faith Family you guys rock!

Have been attending for over 4 yrs and its my home since the first day. As soon as we entered the greeters were awesome and we felt the love. Now days its a bigger location, but we have the same love for our members and guests. Our pastoral staff is down to earth, loving, caring and simply amazing people. We have a little bit of everything for everybody. If you go for the first time, stay until the end and go to the Guest Welcome Center where there is a lovely staff waiting to meet you and answer any question you may have about our church and ministries. We are a big multicultural family...

My husband and I decided to start going to Faith Assembly of God after moving to Orlando in June. We really love this church. It is multicultural and rather large, but you still feel comfortable in it. We also have two young children who go to childcare during service and they love it, the workers are wonderful! Worship is awesome and Pastor Carl is great. What I love the most about this church is the fact that the presence of the Holy Spirit is more than welcome and can be felt during service which is a hard thing to find in most churches. Keep revering the Word and keep preaching the Truth, Faith! Thumbs up.

Love this church and all the ministries it has to offer!

Love my Church God's presence is always there so uplifting

Was just visiting the area and attended this church.

We are from out of town so we were just visiting, but what an awesome worship experience. Get there early if you have kids.

I have been attending this church for almost 3yrs. I would say that this is an amazing place to come. The first time I came the atmosphere was awesome and the people was so loving and welcoming. I knew from that moment I wanted to make this church my church home

I want with my family for Easter wow such a big beautiful place I felt the presence of God. I felt the happiness the joy the peace in my heart I recommend people to go with their family. to Faith Assembly. MayJesus son of God bring peace to the

Great place. Spirit filled worship. And Bible teaching.

Looovee this church! Great children ministry, amazing Single's ministry. The staff are super nice, this place is just great!

Great church, you can feel the presence of God. So much to do, so many ministries to grow and serve the Lord. My husband and I became members soon after we moved to the new campus. We have been blessed with our Pastors and our brothers and sisters in God. May God Bless you all!

I have been going to Faith Assembly for over 7 years and have seen the church continue grow and move into the building at Curry Ford and 417. The church flourishes because of good leadership and a pastor who focuses on teaching and living biblical values and principles. The church believes in missionary work and tithes accordingly to hundreds of missionaries around the world. There are dozens of different ministries to get involved in. A great atmosphere and a wonderful place to be!

I do not appreciate a church sending a poorly written letter from Jesus Christ to my door attached with an outdated article which someone took the time to highlight passages of fear mongering.

My faith in faith has dwindled. Thanks Faith Assembly!

I love this church, as you walk in you could feel the Holy Spirit, God is in this place, Pastor Carl Stevens always makes the calling at the end of every service for all, lost souls as well as saved souls that need healing of broken hearts. I Love Pastor Carl Stevens and his wife Alice, Pastor Carl Stevens sermons are genuine with a twist of a fun personality and filled with the power of God, may God continue to bless them both with His holy power. Pastor John Dreher leads the praise and worship team and he and his team are filled with the Holy Spirit, I can feel the presence of God and the Angels surrounding the group while they sing to our God almighty Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, our King of Kings and Lord of Lords. God continue to bless them with His full power, praise God, what an awesome church this is.

Been serving in church all my adult life, and this by far has been the best experience yet. Seeing behind the scenes and knowing that the leadership lives what it preaches makes me so comfortable to serve here with my wife and daughter!

I love love their worship team, they also have a great kids ministry team. They have several service hours/days. On Sundays it gets very busy/packed especially the 11am service but they have plenty of parking. Overall I really enjoy this place. Give them a try!

90 min service entirely focused on money. This is also not a real AOG type church. It s a black church with gospel music. False advertising.

If you are thinking about going to Faith Assembly, I have something to say about it. I was once against this church, for years, but God has open my eyes to some important things that I never thought about and it has tremendously changed my perception of things. Let me share my thoughts to help you make your decision if this church is for you.
~~
The Building is huge, beautiful, and clean. It sells coffee, snacks, breakfast, lunch and even books. It has snobby people and wonderful people. It has people that act like going to that church is going to make them look like good Christians, and then you have those people, who ARE good Christians. There are even rude people, but just as many nice people. Someone will cut you off in the parking lot, but I ve never seen anyone give the other driver the finger. The church will ask for money over and over again (and over again). It may seem too big of a church, and it may seem like the church has its focus on the wrong things.

Know some important facts (or maybe they are just my opinions)
1) In order to have a church this size and a school for grades Preschool to 12, it will need $$$ from everyone. Without money, the building or schools can t exist.

2) If anyone started a ministry, they would need money. This church supports several ministries. Without money, the ministries stop. How else can we share the Good News with the world?

3) We as Americans love comfort. So, the coffee, snacks, etc are just one of the ways to get a non-Christian to come through the doors. It is not the only way, but a good way.

4) Not all of the employees or volunteers are going to be nice just because they are in a church. You meet rude people in the mall, on the road, and guess what .they will exist also in the church. No one is perfect. They killed the only perfect person who ever walked the earth.

5) If you are expecting your child to grow up to be a great Christian just because of this church, you are wrong. Faith has amazing programs for all ages, including children. If you are a parent and bring your child to this church and leave them in the class while you go into the main sanctuary, don t expect your child to come out singing Amazing Grace and behaving like an Angel from God (although they kind of are Angels in my eyes). Our responsibility as Parents is to work alongside our church and teach our children the way to be like Jesus. To behave in a way that will be pleasing to our Father. When you pick up your child after service, take the service home with you and continue to help your child understand who God is and how much He loves us. The burden should not fall unto the church. Most of the helpers in these classes are volunteers and are not professional teachers. They are serving the Almighty God for the sake of our children. You should say thank you. (I personally know what it is like to serve in the Children s ministry).
6) You might walk into the church and feel overwhelmed and be a bit disturbed if you weren t greeted at the door (there are so many doors). Perhaps, some of the volunteers called in sick, and so the number greeters have been reduced. Oh well. Get over it.

7)Our Pastor is direct and honest and will say what is on his mind. If you have something to say about his preaching, then why don t you go up there and preach for him. He is dedicated to us each and every Sunday and so whether or not you like the message, it doesn t make the Pastor bad.

Stop looking for flaws or reasons to judge or criticize something or someone. Look for Jesus. You will find him at Faith. For some reason, it is in our human nature to whine and complain about every little thing. All I have to say is, Would you like some cheese with that whine?

I attend this church but not a member of the church (yet) & have not been paid to write this review. For the love of our Father and my church, I pray that my review will get you to walk through the doors & even better, to stay!!!

Bless you.
Forgive me for grammatical errors (I am at work trying not to get caught writing this review)

Awesome Church!! Worship wonderful!! People loving and kind!! God's presence Mighty!!

God bless to all of "Faith Assembly of God"! It will be great if you could offer some transportation to some of us who are unable to go to the church. That will be a great ministry. There are many elders, single moms and others as well that want to have a home church but for them is quite difficult to find the way to go. I love "Faith Assembly of God". Hope that some options could be found. We could be the first to serve and bless the community with such a great ministry as this. This is also a way to serve others in the Body of Christ showing God's love outside from serving in the church building. God bless you all! Love you all in Him!

This is a amazing outreach on saving souls life changing Experiences when you go hear this place saved me rose is a amazing person thanks to Jesus

Always my place to go. I'm catholic, nut I feel the love and blessings here, more than in the traditional catholic church. I love this place.

This is a wonderful place to worship! The music is awesome and they have a variety of activities for all ages! The pastors are friendly and welcoming. Due to this being such as large church, however, you need to reach out to others if you're looking for fellowship to avoid getting lost in the crowd

We've been there now for the 4th Sunday and I am so glad to have studied with them the 5 love languages which I am quite familiar with and honestly practice each one of them it was an eye-opening for my fiance Carlos and hopefully it's something that we will continue to put the practice in our relationship. Now Maria to consider relocating, this will be our home Church. Carlos & Maria

I recently relocated i have been attending several months now.
I was guided to faith assembly and it was love from my first service.

Great service as usual. I cant wait for Awaken 2019.

World class facilities and youth programs. The youth pastor Johnny is the real deal.

Great Pastors who teach the word of God. A lot to offer for families, counseling, over 800 Missionary's around the world, marriage counseling, education, spiritual growth classes, and a great Worship team!

Welcoming and positive! I love every second of it and it's so uplifting I highly recommend you going! Great devotions and services; nice people and community things to do
