    WORST SCHOOL EVER! They discriminate against kids with even the slightest disability (even though…read morethey have known since before enrolling him and they say they have the resources, they refused to use any to help) Said my child should have never been accepted and never given the chance. They didn't want to decrease their academic performance, but what they dont know is that my child was spelling elephant correctly at the age of 3.... knows anything and everything about any animal (has taught us about different animals we have never heard of...but are absolutely real because we look them up) Its absolutely insane that this "Christian school" has the audacity to speak to parents so negatively about your child to your face and dont expect you to get upset. They want their "perfect student" school and dont care who they hurt. My child is devastated and thinks it is their fault but its not.

    I'm writing this out of deep frustration and concern. As a parent, it's extremely disheartening to…read morefeel that the school is more focused on money than the well-being of its students and families. Many of us are sacrificing a great deal to give our children a Christian education, yet we feel unheard, unsupported, and taken for granted. The administration in the office does not reflect the values of grace, compassion, or fairness that a Christian school should uphold. It truly hurts to watch good families struggle while feeling dismissed or ignored. I respectfully ask that you take time to truly listen--not just to one voice, but to the parents who are living these struggles every day. Be careful going to this school pastor Scott Dr P. this school isn't a real christian school they only care for money these teachers are not really certified... Please think twice before enrolling your child in this school. Based on my personal experience, I do not believe this is a true Christian school. It feels more like a business than a ministry. They seem more focused on collecting money than truly caring for the students or families. Some students attend for free while others are charged full tuition--this is unfair and not transparent. The administration lacks compassion, and several teachers seem uninterested in the well-being and academic success of the students. Christian values like kindness, fairness, and respect should be visible in every part of a school--especially one that claims to follow Jesus. Sadly, I did not see that here.

With that said, here goes my experience..... My mum had been telling me about a "secret vegetarian" restaurant located within the grounds of this Religious Organization near Costco, and so decided to go check out. Unfortunately I should have paid attention to the timings as the restaurant was closed, but there was a grocery store there with a packet of chips/ crisps (a massive weakness!) that I hadn't seen before and so decided to buy them. When I opened the packet up on the drive back home, discovered they tasted massively stale even tho' the date stamped on the packet was still valid!!! We should have turned around and gone back to return them, but they were already shutting down when we left - so I was left with a rotten taste in my mouth (literary spat out those chips, they tasted so stale!) and $1.50 just wasted, My confidence level in checking out the food now is a little bit less, despite how lovely the staff were. Not sure if will be back.... Yelp 151/2017

    Orlando North Church - Orlando North's Annual Candy Cane Hunt

    Orlando North Church

    I've been attending Orlando North Church for about a year and a half after swearing I'd never…read moreattend an organized religious group ever again. I was invited by my daughter and son-in-law, and have to tell you, Rob Duford, the lead pastor, just blew me away on my very first visit. He is a wonderful speaker, with a contagious sense of humor, and is emphatic about teaching Bible truths; not giving us his opinion of what God's Word actually says. Aside from that, it is probably one of the most welcoming churches I've ever attended. From the moment I stepped through the front doors, I felt at home, and never felt that anywhere else. There was a comment left by another reviewer that seemed to focus on the gay issue and even stated they "felt" the congregation was bigoted. How very different my experience has been. Does the church embrace the gay lifestyle--no, because it is not Biblical. Yet, at the same time, they would not make an issue of being gay. I'm pretty sure there are at least a few gay people who attend and from my observation seem to fit right in with everyone else, and I've never heard anyone slander anyone else for being gay. Again, the issue is a Biblical one, and because part of the church's mission is to teach Biblical truths, they cannot endorse something that is contrary to the scriptures. Sorry, don't mean to be preachy here. The children's/teens ministry is amazing. Zach and Laura lead these groups and the kids adore them. All of my grandchildren, from teens to elementary, attend and love going. This year they brought back the annual Christmas Candy Cane hunt, and all the kids were in on it. It was a huge success reaching out to the community during the Christmas holiday season. Long story short, if you're looking for a church home....one where everyone knows your name and the pastor teaches Biblical truth, then Orlando North just might be the church you call home.

    We have been a part of the church for more than a decade. I don't like to say "attend" because…read morebeing a part of a local church body is how we follow Jesus, whereas "attending" kind of implies that "going to church" is simply something an activity you add on to your daily life. You worship together with other believers, you serve each other and serve the community, you care for and get involved in one another's lives. That's what a "church" is supposed to be. Orlando North has been the place we've found to be able to do that. Orlando North itself follows the reformed theological tradition. It's not mainline Protestant but it's also not charismatic or pentecostal. Whenever people talk about a church, there's a temptation to start "grading" it on its various aspects. No matter what church you're involved with, you're not going to think everything is exactly the best in the world. But it doesn't have to be. What it does need to be is a place where you can serve Jesus and worship with other believers - a place that both equips you to do that and gives you the opportunity. The children's ministry are headed by Zach and Laura, who have a love for kids and an enthusiasm for teaching kids and young people about Jesus that is palpable. Orlando North has cycled through different "curriculums" - GUTS, Orange - but I believe what they've settled on in the last few years is a good one. But no matter what, the people are what make the difference, and Laura/Zach are great ones. I did want to touch on a couple of elements that someone else brought up ( I don't know them, and I have to acknowledge from the outside that people see what they see, so whatever they said was their interpretation of what they observed). I was bothered by the bigotry-LGBTQ comment because I've never observed that. There are a lot of "culture war" arguments that have seeped into the American Church writ large. Yet, even in the middle of a time where many churches in our country are fracturing and dividing because people can't agree about politics and these kinds of issues, one of the refreshing things about Orlando North is that the church body seems to make an effort not to divide over these things. Everyone has their own views and there's diversity of opinion in all things here. Politics and social issues are no exception - we have people who will be voting for Trump in Nov '24 and people who will be voting for Biden in Nov '24. And they know who the other is and it doesn't matter to them. You don't see the church dividing over it, because everyone realizes that no matter if you disagree with another Christian, what we agree on is most important and it overrides everything else - that Jesus is Lord and we are serving Him by serving the world. So, with the respect to what they believe they observed, I suspect that they were bothered by, as they put it "they believe in the one-man-one-woman theory" (since they mentioned that specifically). And yet, that "theory" been the historic orthodox Christian position on such issues for more than a millenium. Orlando North doesn't preach fire and brimstone about it. They hold it as a statement of faith along with other things. I suspect that someone who strongly disagreed about that would assume that a church that holds to the traditional orthodox view is "homophobic". And that's really too bad, because that's a view that really contradicts the actual nature of how the church body of Orlando North treats people no matter what their sexuality is or their views are on other things. I was also bothered by their comments on the 2017 beach retreat (which feels weird commenting about, seven years on), and about the role of the pastor's wife. I do know Melanie has filled many positions in the church, yet it's very common in churches for church staff to be paid to fill multiple roles. Somebody has to do that work. I don't know if they were bothered by her being paid to provide professional services, but for me, having been in churches my whole life, it's better for a church to pay someone than to require professional services for free. And 7 years on, Orlando North now has other people that fill that role. Specifically regarding the '17 Beach Retreat, again, I don't know why the person interpreted whatever they saw in that way. My wife and I have been to every beach retreat the church has done since before 2015, and I don't remember that retreat in the way they were describing, at all. Rob would never preach such a message, and I hope that with the passing on time, that person has been able to form different memories about the church than those things they cited. If not, then we failed them as a church body. So, to wrap all this up, Orlando North seems like a great place to worship Jesus and follow Him along with other people seeking to do the same thing.
