The Carpet Church - A.F.A.B.

One of the interesting curiosities in Seminole Heights is the Carpet Church.
Located near Bird St. and Nebraska Ave next to Tanga Rays and across from the Sulphur Springs Pool, it is officially known as A.F.A.B or Abundant Faith Apostolic Church.

We first encoutered this church several years ago when it was located at Martin Luther King Blvd and Nebraska in the 2 buildings next to the door store. One building was the church and the other the capret business. On Wednesday evenings the Pastor would put a set of big speakers just outside the door and allowing those driving down Nebraska to get a sound bite of the sermons, praises and the singing. A couple of years ago ago he moved twice, finally ending up at this location.

As you can see from the signs in the following posts, this is not a church that relies just on tithing. An enterprising pastor who has a carpet business out front and a BBQ stand next door. I find this admirable.
