I have finally decided to post this review, because it is paramount that I share how I was mistreated by one of the so-called "man of God" who was "representing" this church. The way in which I was treated has stuck with me for all of these years, and it is time that I release it, because no one should be yelled at and treated in a disrespectful manner, all because an individual did not like what another person was doing while in their own space, and minding their own business, and ESPECIALLY NOT a "man of the cloth!"

The name of the church is as in the title, "The Church Of St. Peter and St. Paul", located at 4909 North Lake Dr. Roanoke, VA *******.

This situation occured around 13 or 14 years ago (give or take), but as the saying goes: "It is never too late!"

I was just leaving the gas station one evening, which is directly in front of this church, and I pulled my vehicle to the side, in order to check my directions. It was after 7:00 PM, so I had turned the light on in my vehicle, in order to see the details better.
I wasn't parked there for more than 3 minutes, before a car pulls up aggressively in front of me, while almost touching the front of my vehicle, as if there would have been a head-on collision, if the individual driving had not abruptly stopped their vehicle in time enough.
In the car was an older man, and his wife.

The "man" JUMPS OUT of his vehicle AGGRESSIVELY SO, while yelling, screaming, and saying ungodly expressions towards me, and all because I was parked right on the side of the driveway entrance of the church.

He jumps out, and says:

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?! GET OUT OF THE WAY! YOU ARE IN MY WAY, AND PARKED IN FRONT OF THE DRIVEWAY SO THAT I CAN'T GET TO MY CHURCH! THIS IS MY CHURCH! I AM THE PASTOR OF THIS CHURCH! YOU ARE FORBIDDEN TO BE IN THIS SPOT! MOVE YOUR CAR NOW, AND GET OUT OF MY WAY! I AM THE PASTOR OF THIS CHURCH! THIS IS MY CHURCH! MY PEOPLE! AND YOU ARE BLOCKING MY DRIVEWAY! MOVE IT NOW, BEFORE I CALL THE POLICE! NOW!"- while screaming at the top of his lungs at me, and in front of other innocent bystanders.

Well needless to say, he didn't get away with that nonsense. I quickly expressed to him, this so-called "man of God", that if he were in fact "a man of God", that he would NOT be performing in such a manner, and that God was NOT PLEASED with his unacceptable and belligerent behavior! I informed him that just because he is totally absorbed in his title as the "pastor" of the church, that it certainly did NOT give him the right to speak to ANY INDIVIDUAL in that manner, and told him that he needed to repent immediately, before God punished him. "God doesn't like ugly" (as the saying goes), and that this "man" surely was!

I was appalled by the overall behavior of this "man of the cloth!" Despicable! Not the work of God, but clearly the work of the devil.

He provided his name, and his position (obviously), but I will not provide those pertinent details; however, when his flock reads this review, they will know EXACTLY who this "pastor" of the church was, and apparently still is, just by the details in which I have provided. (Many often refer to him by his nickname).

After all of these years, I am sure that this "man" did not think that this situation would be shared, or a complaint would be registered, but here I am, and here it is! He should have listened to his wife, when she told him, "(Name), do NOT yell at that young girl! She said that she was looking at directions, she will move her car. Stop it!"

If he treats women like this, I would hate to see the dynamic of his household. No respect for the woman whatsoever, as seen evident by how he treated me. I can guarantee that he wouldn't have approached a man like that!
I actually thought that he was intoxicated, to perform in such a disgusting and deplorable manner; or possessed one! What a shame! What a poor example for others to witness.

May God bless you! :)
