Lovely Lane United Methodist Church

About this church

Lovely Lane United Methodist Church is at 2424 42nd Street NE in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on the corner of 42nd Street and Wenig Road next to Kennedy High School. During the school year, Sunday worship is held at 8:30 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. The 8:30 service lasts about 45 to 50 minutes, and the 10:30 service lasts about an hour and is also livestreamed on YouTube. Both are traditional, and the later service includes a choir or handbell choir and a Children's Time. Communion is celebrated on the first Sunday of each month. Dress ranges from a little dressed up to casual. In summer the church holds a single service at 9:30 a.m., so confirm the season's schedule before visiting.

Sunday School for children meets at 9:30 and 10:30 a.m., and adult classes meet at 9:30 a.m. Coffee and donuts are served in Fellowship Hall between services. The church runs a preschool and before- and after-school programs, and lists groups for children, youth, women, and seniors, along with music ministries, a Wednesday night Kids' Club that begins with a family meal, a Boy Scout troop, and a library. Mission work includes a partnership with a sister church in Matanzas, Cuba, and efforts to serve neighbors in need of food, housing, education, or health care. A parking lot and Fellowship Hall are on site; use the New Here page for first-time questions.
