If you need a place where you are not judged, and the people involved genuinely care about you, FBCP is it. This group of believers are dedicated Christian's who have come to know God in a way that can't help but make us a little envious. Lead by Pastor Tony Watson, the spirit is definitely alive in these folks. Regular attendance is one of the best things that a Christian can do to take the next step on their walk. You will ALWAYS leave here with a big smile on your face, and a renewed focus in life. Come see me, Pure, on any Sunday. They, as well as, I would be so great ful to have you here with us. Oh yea, and don't forget.. That is there is coffee and donuts for all patrons before the sermon

Sometimes friendly, sometimes not. But, this 104 heat gets to people, so I just overlook the unfriendly part.
