    The person I spoke is not representative of what a church should be. She sounded like she was in…read morethe middle of an argument or something talking to me. I would not go to this church unless you like angry people. I'm a Minister, but the loving kind. I was crying, and I can't believe she spoke to me that way. I can't wait to get out of Florida, so many people here are downright rude, standoffish, among other things. People openly talk about how my body looks here like I can't hear them- body shaming is a big thing nowadays, and I've heard a TON of it since I've been here. I think I'm beautiful and am sorry my body is so triggering lol for so many of you. Ive also met some very amazing people here, but when the majority leans the other way (at least in the areas I've been in) I'm out. I mean seriously the police here were probably the nicest people I met for any extended period of time. The police were more kind and comforting to me than an angry woman at a CHURCH. If you don't know about God/Jesus etc. and this place was your first experience, and it went badly- I really hope you don't give up, and think that is what it's about- cause it's not. Call another church until you find somewhere that feels to good to you. Generally speaking- you should leave a church feeling uplifted, and supported in case life gets ya.

    Full confession: I am a Methodist, but this church is by far my favorite. I travel to Sarasota for…read morework Dec-Jan and have been doing so for the last decade. I tried many different churches, many different denominations, and finally felt "at home" in this beautiful and welcoming building. Father Fausto is made of light and joy. There is no other way to say it. He bubbles over with enthusiasm and care for his flock and every single time I meet him he greets me as if we are old friends. This man understands that there are many snowbirds, travelers, and visitors to his parish and he welcomes each as though they were family. I know that Catholic Churches can seem cold to outsiders or intimidating, but if others could model themselves after St Martha's, that idea would quickly pass away. Father Fausto is progressive and realistic and delightfully Italian. He uses humor and real life experience to convey the Word. I love how he, and many of the other priests, are able to break down the message in a way that is relatable to the congregation. I feel certain that he and the current Pope would be the best of friends. It is hard not to feel lighter and more hopeful in Father Fausto's presence. If you are an early riser, I highly recommend the 7:30am mass. There is a small parking lot behind the church, and that quickly fills up. If you are planning on attending 9:00am or 10:30am, the church opens half an hour before service, and I recommend getting there early, as you may have to acquire street parking and walk. The only thing I find a little disappointing are the acoustics. It can be very difficult to hear when the church is packed, which is almost guaranteed during the 9:00 and 10:30 services. The beautiful architecture and stain glass windows are beautiful, but do nothing for the sound. Like the congregation, the brotherhood of priests is a cultural melting pot with many different nations represented, and it can make discerning their words very difficult when accompanied by the coughing, crying, pew shifting, and general hum of the congregation. Overall, regardless of your religious affiliation, visiting St Martha's is a wonderful experience. The courtyard outside is peaceful and serene. Everyone who passes by you is quick with a genuine greeting. If you have the opportunity to attend Mass, do. Especially if Father Fausto is speaking. You will be inspired to be better, and that is a universal Christian goal.

    Just doesn't hold up. My mother died of Covid in February and this place didn't care at all…read more Unreal.
