About: STATUS
STATUS is a community of 20s becoming the
Sundays at 6:30pm and 8:30pm we meet together in the auditorium of Discovery Church and the other six days of the week there are various expressions of who we are in houses, offices, bars, coffee shops, galleries and just about everywhere else you can imagine in the Central Florida area.
We hold tightly to the teachings of Jesus as recorded by the apostles who penned the gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. In addition, the scriptures arranged in the Bible are the truth which we base our lives around. For the rest of our values please visit www.discoverychurch.org
