We had a meaningful time together this Sunday as we marked Mother’s Day with a worship service led by our youth. It was encouraging to see them take the lead and share their gifts with the congregation—they did a great job!
We wrapped up the morning by handing out flowers to motherly figures in our church community, in honor of all who provide love, support, and encouragement to others. (Special thanks to the United Methodist Foundation of Chagrin Falls for providing funding for the flowers.)

​Our Outreach Team teamed up with Habitat for Humanity of Greater Cleveland's Playhouse Project to build a special space for a very special little girl—and her smile says it all. She loves to dance, so we turned her playhouse into a tiny studio, complete with ballet bars and inspiring quotes on the walls. Big thanks to all the volunteers who helped bring it to life—you built more than a playhouse; you built joy.

What a glorious Easter Sunday we shared! From the serene beauty of our sunrise service in the park to the joy-filled celebration at our regular 10am worship, the spirit of resurrection was truly alive among us. We rejoiced together in the promise of new life and the hope of the risen Christ. Thank you to everyone who joined us — it was a truly unforgettable day of praise, music, and renewal.

​We joined with fellow Christians from the community for the Stations of the Cross, a moving and reflective Good Friday tradition. Starting and ending at the Gazebo in Triangle Park, we walked the 14 stations through Chagrin Falls, remembering the final steps of Jesus' journey. This annual event, coordinated by the Chagrin Valley Council on Churches, reminds us of the power of shared faith in public witness. Thank you to those who participated by reading or holding station signs — and to Rev. Joyce and Marianne Morgan for coordinating our part in this powerful experience.
Palm Sunday & Pancake Breakfast
April 13, 2025
Palm Sunday marked the beginning of our Holy Week with joy, praise, and palm branches waving! Worship was followed by a lively and delicious Pancake Breakfast — a wonderful time of fellowship, food, and fun. It was so special to see members of all ages gathering around the table together as we entered into this sacred week.

When the Pastor's birthday falls on a Sunday, it's a great opportunity to celebrate! What a joy it was to honor the incredible gift she is to our church family.
Birthdays are more than just a time for cake and gifts — they remind us of God’s faithfulness and the unique purpose He has for each of us. We encourage everyone to celebrate and uplift the special people God has placed in their lives. Every person is a reflection of His love.
