Naples has some big churches of all denominations. I might start a series of churches on Sundays.
Naples United Church of Christ is on Seagate Drive. It looks like a New England protestant church (if you ignore the palm trees) and its congregation includes many New England snowbirds.

Beyond its religious services, Naples UCC funds a variety of missions, including
Baby Basics (diapers, food, clothing, etc.), Precious Cargo Academy (onsite pre-school),
Meals of Hope (providing 150,000 meals) and a Guatemala Medical Clinic.
It has funded just short of $1 million of mission service in the past five years.
Yep, it looks like New England!

Sounds like they are doing some fantastic work.
ReplyDeleteHeard you got some wind. Hope you avoided any damage. Yes, this church looks like a classic New England one. It has great balance. Your excellent photo doesn't hurt it either.
ReplyDeleteDaring architecture - neoclassic, New England-y and dumped with tropical white wash. And good for the congregation. I like social activism.
ReplyDeleteNew England with palm trees. Interesting juxtaposition.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a church that likes to get things done. Sounds good to me.
A classic look which I love!
