This is a special place! All 3 of our children attended preschool here and we have been to a few church events as well.

For the first time in my life,...

For the first time in my life, I am giving some one a bad review. and I don’t believe that it’s for a church. But I had to let every one know what is behind that beautiful red church.

I went to the church on a Monday. and it was the first day of the Vacation Bible Study . Wanted to see if I can sign my kids up . There was one of the church staff asked me to wait so she can check if there is a space for my kids or not . came back and told me that its ok and gave me a form to fill . then I waited to talk with Angy . and she was so welcoming and I payed the registration fees . before I left I thought to let her know that my daughter is a special need . of course she said she is ok with that and they will help her if she needs help but the truth was that she didn’t want my daughter because after two hours she called me to let me know that they can’t take my son. Because they don’t have enough supplies . she was just talking about my son.

I was shocked that a church or Angy is rejecting to teach a child a bout God because she didn’t have enough arts and crafts supplies . or it is too much work for her to get a name tag for one child .

So I said fine. I am not going to bring my son I am just going to bring my 12 years old .

Angy told me when I was doing the registration, that my daughter should be one of the assistants or counselors. So It should not be a problem with the supplies since she won’t be using any arts and crafts supplies .

So she said NO and she kept giving me some excuses that it didn’t make any sense for me. It seems to me that she was just not being honest about it . I don’t know her and she doesn’t know me. And I think the real reason that make her said no is because my daughter is a special needs, and Angy didn’t want her .

Why ?



couldn’t believe that there is a person could rejecting some one because of their disability or because they are different .

couldn’t believe that there is a church is saying no for a child coming to know God because there is no enough supplies or what ever reason that this angy was giving me .

The truth Ms Angela Akmakjian is that you are not an honest person . you were ok accepting my kids before you knew about my daughter and then you came with such a dumb lies to push my kids a way.

Went to pick up my check the next day and I was so upset . tried to talk with her and let her know that what she is doing was wrong . she waved her hand in front of my face and said I don’t have time for this and ran inside the church.

called the pastor Dr. WAYNE WALTERS so he can do something about this discrimination . didn’t want to meet me . want to do it all by phone.

First he agreed with me that it was wrong that she said yes and after two hours tell me no . but called me back and I repeated the same things that Angy told me.



I am really upset to be treated this way inside a church and what kind of church that rejecting a child asking to learn a bout God .

In my bible, the lord said Let the children come to me , and forbid them not . for of such is the kingdom of God . MARK 10:14 .



what kind of a message you are teaching inside the church . you don’t know God and you all should be ashamed of treating any one different because they are different .
