A Sea Of Red

Just curious--where do most of us go to church, if we live in Lynchburg?

Heritage United Methodist

Rivermont Avenue Baptist

(home of the Celtic Christian service at 8:30 & Soul Cafe coffee bar service on Wednesdays at 6:15)

While I lived on-campus, I went to Hyland Heights Baptist...but now I drive back home to Farmville to attend Riverside Community.

How's Brentwood doing? I went there my last year, and really liked it. Unfortunately, by the end of my time there, it seemed as if it became the "cool" thing to do, and LU students started to go just to be seen. Still, it had great worship and great preaching. I hope that hasn't changed.

Doing extremely well, actually. It is certainly packed with college students, but the church is okay with that. We have got a TON of young families with kids, and they're what's really driving the church. We just recently went to three services and our cups are overflowing as far as giving goes. I really haven't felt as at home in a church as I do at brentwood. I just wish I could manage to stay in town on the weekends a little more often so I could get more involved.

There's a gal here in Richmond who was a member there when she lived in Lynchburg. Says she really loved it there.
As for myself...when I was a student at Liberty, I went to TRBC. There were no other options allowed at that time. RAs would patrol the dorms and you would get written up if you decided not to go. I didn't go to church at all my senior year when I lived off campus...guess it was my way of rebelling.

Glad to hear, HMO, because Mrs. Cider was really concerned.

I concur. Pastor Jon's message yesterday was very personal, but one that everyone should hear. When they put it up online, give it a listen....

Yes that was an amazing service.....and i completly agree.

I go to Heritage Baptist and love it. We move into our big new building in April of '08.

TRBC unless I feel like going somewhere else

TRBC most Sundays but Ive been trying to decide if I should stay there or move to Heritage Baptist (where Ive been in the college class but have not joined the membership rolls)
