Lakewood United Methodist Church

About this church

Lakewood United Methodist Church offers three Sunday worship environments. Awakening begins at 8:30 a.m. in Yoder Chapel as a contemplative service with Scripture, quiet reflection, spiritual renewal, and weekly Communion; no childcare is available then. At 10 a.m., Impact meets in Impact Hall with contemporary music, media, and themed teaching, while a traditional service meets simultaneously in the sanctuary with hymns, choir, bells, organ, and stained-glass surroundings. Both 10 a.m. services are available by livestream, and children's Sunday School for ages twelve weeks through fifth grade operates during that hour with trained, background-checked volunteers.

The congregation describes itself as broadminded, generous in spirit, devoted to Jesus, and committed to welcoming people across backgrounds and abilities. Middle-school students meet at 9:45 a.m. on the first and third Sundays from September through May, then worship with their households on the second and fourth Sundays. Adult Sunday School begins at 11:05, creating a post-worship learning option. Community service includes Monday-morning volunteer work at the Cleveland Foodbank, support for a hospice serving terminally ill people without charge, and fundraising for scholarships and women's housing at Africa University. Newcomers can choose contemplation, contemporary worship, or traditional liturgy. Families needing childcare should select 10 rather than 8:30, and middle-school households should check the Sunday-of-month pattern.
