ABOUT US
Flowers Temple Church of God in Christ was formed in 1929 in the home of Mrs. Fannie White. We were the first sanctified church in Winter Park Florida. The original name of the church was Church of God in Christ, Winter Park. This name remained until the late 1960's. At which time the then current pastor, Elder WH Daugherty, and others voted unanimously to change the name to Flowers Temple. The church’s name is derived from our third pastor, Elder JJ Flowers from Tampa. Elder Flowers and others were instrumental in building the church at its current location (the corner of Capen & Lyman Aves) in 1935. Since its inception, Flowers Temple has had eleven pastors. Elder Aloysius T. Hill is the 11th leader, and has been our shepherd since 2016.
