What visitors say
As a preteen and adult, i have felt and witnessed nothing but kindness, love, and scripture acted out. These church is historical and compassionate. I feel honored to say that this was where i chose to be baptized in my youth, and i know that i learned from people who truly honored Jesus’ teachings. I’m very excited to make room in my schedule to attend again soon. Always food for thought. A loving Christ and a spiritual way of looking at life Nice church but very poor winter shelter for the homeless. There's more space for the men than the women. And I know that this is a low barrier place, but they even allow people soaked and caked in fecal matter and urine inside and don't make them wash. Everyone else just has to breathe in those toxic chemicals and they wonder why people are sick. So if you're homeless and need a place to stay, come here but be prepared to smell and breathe in feces and urine and staff tell you they can't do anything else. Wonderful, thought provoking sermons that manage to entertain yet pull no punches. Pastor Doug is a gifted speaker. Truly welcoming community. Half of the choir are members of the Pittsburgh opera. That alone is worth an hour of your time on Sunday. If you haven't visited with Jesus for awhile, Smithfield is the perfect place to become reacquainted and get inspired. I miss worshiping at the church. Pastor Doug Patterson is an inspiring speaker and person. Rev Cherian is also inspiring. The music is beautiful and the church is gorgeous. I find great peace and solace there. Rev Doug is inclusive and welcomes all. It is a wonderful experience. This is a true Pittsburgh treasure.
