Just like a home needs a warm, welcoming vibe, our church is all about creating that safe space for everyone.  We’re here to share God’s radical love and make sure you feel it too! So, whether you’re seeking a spot to worship, connect, or just be you, look no further. 
Join us for Worship on Sundays and experience the difference. Let’s spread kindness and inclusivity together! 

Mark 11:24 – Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

We will take up a special collection on Pentecost Sunday, May 19th, 2024

Psalm 71 testifies that a foundation of faith established during childhood helps ensure lifelong faith and service. The patterns and lessons established during these formative years continue to bear fruit throughout a person’s life. By contributing to the Pentecost Offering, you are nurturing the faith of those who are the church to come —  children, youth, and young adults.

You are invited to join Pastor Bobby every Sunday as he leads a Lectionary Bible Study at 9:00 a.m. before the 10:00 a.m. Worship Service. The Bible Study is an extended focus on the gospel text for the day. It will give you more insight, which will help you understand the sermon in a deeper way and appreciate the message.

The last FAST meeting of the year is the Joshua Assembly which will recap the Nehemiah Action Meeting and set the tone for next year.  It will be held at Temple Beth-El, 400 Pasadena Ave. South, St. Petersburg.   We will carpool from Maximo at 6:30 p.m. Thanks for your continued support of FAST and reach out to Kathy Calcaterra should you have questions!

Join us and the National Alliance on Mental Illness this month in normalizing the practice of taking moments to prioritize mental health care without guilt or shame. Learn more about the PC(USA)’s mental health ministry here: https://hubs.ly/Q02vbk080

While at Maximo, be sure to check out Rina’s amazing Bulletin Boards in the Narthex. This month is about Mental Health Awareness and the 12 Things Your Congregation Can Do In Mental Health Ministry.

Pastor Bobby speaking at FAST Nehemiah Action Meeting

FAST, which stands for Faith and Action for Strength Together is a social justice ministry which fits perfectly into Maximo’s commitment to being a Matthew 25 church. This year’s FAST Committees in this area have been working very hard on Affordable Housing, Water Quality and Worsening Flooding, and Criminal Justice Reform.  Thank you to Kathy Calcaterra for your leadership and thank you to all the Maximo Church Members who attended this powerful meeting.

It was a privilege to see Kathy Calcaterra at her first Presbytery meeting introducing herself as a Ruling Elder from Maximo. Kathy has been elected as a new Commissioner to the PCUSA General Assembly, representing the Presbytery of Tampa Bay. She and the rest of the Commissioners were installed at the meeting. She will be flying to Salt Lake City, Utah, to attend the General Assembly meeting in June/July of this year. Congratulations, Kathy! Please pray for the Holy Spirit to guide them in their decision-making of the difficult issues facing the church.
