Weekdays Within The Ark

Abysmally negligent handling of sexual misconduct on behalf of staff. In March of 2025, a staff member sexually assaulted me after a long-term series of grooming and manipulation tactics which were employed. I cannot, despite his request for me to “not tell anyone”, hold my tongue any longer. I previously attempted to privately resolve this threat to safety with church staff, however, follow-up was never completed; therefore, I have no faith in the fact that any measures have been taken to protect the parents, children, and young women within this establishment. I cannot, in good faith, allow further delay of action; this establishment has been complicit regarding his behavior, and by extension, complicit in the risk which is offered to the people with whom he comes into contact. Please, practice your best judgement and look out for yourselves and your families. Edit: months after nobody bothered to make a scheduled follow-up phone call, the comment below is the follow-up and closure provided. All things considered, you can likely come to a conclusion on whether or not they took this situation seriously.

Please note that this review may not be a review of the church as a whole, but rather a review of my experience as a first-time visitor and prospective member. This may have been a one-time thing and every other time it's perfect! But, just in case... here you go. A church should feel welcoming and judgement free. I walked into this church for a funeral and immediately felt uneasy. The woman that was "greeting" folks as they entered the church was extremely unwelcoming, as were the older men that were helping. Almost a week later, I called the church for some information, and the woman that answered the phone was rude. Very cold and unfriendly. Not very "Christian-like", if you will. I would like to say that I eventually did feel welcomed into the church, thanks to Rev. Angela House. We need more people like Rev. House! My goal here is not to lead people away from this gorgeous church; it is, however, done in hopes that someone will see this and make some changes within the church. Way too often do we see churches with its devoted members who volunteer their time to serve, and often times, these servants will push people away from the church. If you don't want to do it, just don't! Let someone who is willing to be optimistic and welcoming into your church. It's important that your mission be to bring more people into the church and show them the love of Christ, regardless of their race, orientation, or financial standing. That is what we're called to do.

This is a beauty of architecture. I put the grass down by the playground and the people who passed by where friendly and respectful. It's not a old place as in historical but the style of this place is worth a trip. There is food within a 10 minute ride during traffic.

Pretty church and kind staff. Not my church home, but a pleasant place to visit.

I went there for my nephews wedding...beautiful church. Nice people!
