When George
Sebring established the City of Sebring in 1912, he said that no
community could be successful without a strong religious foundation,
so he donated land to establish a variety of churches and a
synagogue. Sebring believed that the pursuit of health and happiness
is possible only when there is a foundation of faith involved, and
the present-day large community of active Christians and Jews is a
highly compatible outgrowth of his vision. |

| Many friendships,
business relationships, golf foursomes, bridge tables, tennis
doubles matches, dinner groups and religious study groups with
deeply caring and supportive relationships are an outgrowth of
shared faith and experiences. Whether a resident or a visitor, you
will find a warm and open invitation to be a part of such groups as
may fit your personal beliefs and needs. |

| Highlands County
is home to over 125 houses of worship, with more than half of those
located in the greater Sebring area. The high sense of values
embraced by citizens of this area can be attributed to the fact that
a large percentage of people attend worship services on a regular
basis. |

| A synagogue and
churches of many faiths are represented in and around the Sebring
area. Most have special programs for youth and senior citizens as
well as for the entire family. What a wonderful way for newcomers to
meet new people and develop a support network of people from like
faith! |
