Welcome Church Family!
Easter is a time of renewal and rebirth, and there is no better way to celebrate this special occasion than by attending one of the many Holy Week worship services at Rocky River United Methodist Church.
We are proud to offer a variety of services to meet the diverse needs and preferences of our congregation. Whether you prefer traditional hymns or contemporary worship music, solemn reflection or joyful celebration, we have a service that is right for you.

Easter Sunrise Service: April 9
