The first worship center (I don’t want to call them church ) that expels people from their parking lots! If u park there they come and say u can’t stay here . I was expecting hospitality but I ve encountered a rude security who doesn’t even know how to welcome or say hi . I think they might do something inside that they don’t want to publicly known !
