OUR VOICES

Hear from some members and friends

"I feel honored and blessed to have served this church as pastor since 2017. Over the course of these many years, I have witnessed a gathering of people who truly strive to live out the command of Christ to, "love your neighbor in the same way as you love yourself."

I know it may sound cliche, but the people of Fifth Avenue come from every station of life, yet when gathered, all divisions and circumstances seem to melt away as mutual respect and kindness lead us towards our divine purpose of love."

Rev. Vernie L. Bolden, Jr

"We value being part of a church where all are welcomed and all are loved!"

"Having lived my entire life in Mexico City, Mexico, it was wonderful to find a Zoom service from the U.S. that was (and continues to be) inspiring and spiritually comforting. After attending online for several years, I went from being an observer to being accepted as a full member. It has been a joy to frequently participate in the worship services."

"Fifth Avenue is a church that welcomes all people regardless of their race, gender, sexual orientation or country of origin. Fifth Avenue will always hold a special place in my heart because it was where I was married. The utilization of Zoom makes attending services convenient wherever a person is in the world. The best part of being a member of Fifth Avenue is the dynamic messages which are presented each week by our Pastor..." Michael B.

"We attend Fifth Avenue because of the community, the fellowship, the family, and the learning. Our family is appreciative of what we are able to take away from Fifth Avenue every Sunday..."
