Back in May 2015 are shoppers who shopped them. They are a Bible, church group in the South. I just looked them up on line and the Forum came up.
I registered with them a month back, but they haven't had shops listed in my area. There was an article on them that I just read yesterday. I think it was a link on my Facebook account where I saw it. I believe they are legit - just not your average MSC as they only shop churches. I'd give them a shot if I had a chance. Then again, I like church.
There have been discussions about them before. From what I can recall, you go to a church service (you are told which one, it does not have to be your faith) and are told what to evaluate. I recall that one of the things to evaluate was how welcoming the congregation made you feel. I do not recall any negative comments. Everyone seemed to have gotten paid.

Shopping Southeast Pennsylvania, Delaware above the canal, and South Jersey since 2008
I have done shops for them, it was cool. To let them know you'd been there you were supposed to slip a little piece of paper into the collection plate. One congregation was cold and unfriendly and I wasn't acknowleged in any way until the end of the service when I was walking out.

I have done one for them. Easy report, but I did give then a considerable amount of narrative. Paid with no problems; I think it was a check. I would definitely do more for them. I did not have to leave a note. My church bulletin was the POV.
I've registered with the company, but haven't heard anything yet. I understand most shops call for 'unchurched' people (i.e., those who don't identify with a particular denomination).

That was not the case for me. I do have a regular church, and that was not a problem at all. They do ask how often and what denomination you attend.

I'm an ordained minister with an actual church and they let me do the shop. The other church's service time was different enough from ours that it was not a problem to go to it.

They don't have any shops in my area, but I keep hoping. I would love to do some of their shops.
I tend to keep busy but still have time for mischief!

I realize this reply is late but since I came across it; I like working for FP. And I liked the church so much that I joined!
I am signed up with them and almost did a shop, but it was unfortunately cancelled. I saw the report and it looked fairly simple. If they had more shops in my area I would definitely sign up for more. They are good at responding to e-mails. smiling smiley
I completed one shop for them. The report is narrative heavy but not hard to complete. They are good at responding to emails, Payment is quick.

Do not read so much, look about you and think of what you see there.

I wouldn't mind doing these shops if the locations weren't mostly in rural-to-far reach places.
