Who We Are
The Woodworker's Church are fellow worker's of Christ on His Mission! That being, the church exists to fulfill the Great Commission by preparing and making ready the Church for the eminent return of Jesus Christ. As fellow workers, we are to perfect the saints of God for this purpose, and to tell the world (beginning in our own town and city) about Jesus Christ, and his soon coming.
We're here to study, pray, teach, and to live holy blameless lives before Christ in anticipation for His return. The Woodworker's Church is a Full Gospel Church, who should be the beacon of the light of Christ as an end time Church-bringing salvation to many people.

Woodworker's History
How We Began
The Woodworker’'s Church was birthed out of, and is affiliated with, NYC Full Gospel Theological Seminary. During the spring of 2009, the seminary had been meeting at The Woodworker’s Cabinetry Shop in Naples Florida. Dr. Frank Garofalo and fellow members felt burdened to begin a Church, whose focus is to prepare its people for the second coming of Jesus Christ.
On October 11th 2009, after much prayer and renovations, The Woodworker's Church launched it's first service in the store front of The Woodworker's Cabinet Shop.
Our Name
Our name came about as one of our members was looking at the Woodworker’'s Cabinet Shop sign. He felt Jesus Christ was a woodworker (a carpenter) and craftsmen in what He did. That Jesus was a crafted worker for His Father-as means of salvation for the world. The member’s agreed and felt we too are His fellow worker’s (craftsman), which are to continue to carry out His mission. This seemed to be God's leading, and the birth of The Woodworker’s Church and its mission began.
