inez jauregui: I’ve been going to Srf for many many many years and what is very disturbing. Is it this last few years? They have very much gone in a not so positive direction. They used to be a temple that would bring people together by doing monthly potluck and or festivities or games they had a lot more they offered previously to this last two years. It’s interesting how people wanna blame everything on Covid but the fact of the matter is is that when people are giving and donating so much money to the Temple it is up to them to continue to put into it what they have gotten people accustomed to. The The monk/speakers that preach on Sunday, especially as of the last month are not very inspiring, and their messages is not very impactful. I’m very disappointed.
Paul Yoon: This is a solid, Bible-believing church that has sound doctrine and congregants who are practicing their faith in the Lord Jesus. The most prominent portion of the Sunday worship services is the strong preaching (mostly expository). The leadership (pastors and elders) are committed to faithfully teaching Gods word and shepherding the members of the church.
Currently, this church is medium-sized (around 300 attendees), so it can be challenging to get to know people. While some people are welcoming, it seems that others tend to keep to themselves or the people theyre comfortable with. To be clear, Im not saying that there are clear factions within the church. One can definitely build Christ-centered relationships with many people if he takes the initiative to do so.
While I have some minor disagreements on certain elements of church doctrine and practices, I believe that this church is genuinely God-fearing, Christ-exalting, and Spirit-filled. I became a member of this church in January 2024, and Im thankful to be part of a body of believers that seeks to worship and glorify God.
