The church is big with the main hall fitting about 350 people. Journey Church is a Christian non-denominational church with 3 locations. The first location is in Fairview Park. I enjoyed visiting the Avon location for church. I was greeted upon entering, then I went to the complimentary tea/coffee station and poured myself a cup of tea, then I went into the sanctuary to find a seat. The 12:30pm service that I attended was a great experience. Pastor Phil spoke with enthusiasm and gave Biblical examples. The praise and worship team played lively music. If you're looking for a church, you should visit Journey Church in Avon. They have plenty of groups (Bible study groups, singles groups, divorce care group, etc) - these groups will allow you to meet more people. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 80/250 total reviews in 2026 - 921 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 13 May 2026

The second time I went, I noticed that individuals went out to their way to say hello. The last time I attended, I was darn near ran out of the sanctuary by the loudness from the singing (summer 2026). Unfortunately, even the ear plugs didn't help. It felt as though the women were attempting to sing louder than one another. Worship is for the Glorification of Christ and not a place for showmanship or stardom. Overall, I like the church; however, the loudness of the singing is a little hard to take. Just wanted to close out on a positive note. Ladies, you have beautiful voices and I wasn't meaning to imply anything different. I just want us to be mindful of those in the audience and who they are trying to connect with during worship. When you sing or play an instrument too loudly during worship, it comes across as a rock concert with Christian music.

Inside the classic brick building a semicircular arrangement of pews tells you that this church is a church of its congregants who pray and discuss together, not of a leadership that preaches to its members. The First church, literally the first church in Oberlin, was founded along with the College by the leaders of a sect of semi-Utopian, fiery congregationalists who became radical abolitionists. Today, if you read the message of ministry of this church on its web page, you will know that if you are seeking a church that ministers to and of its people, you may find a home at First Church. I was never a member but it made me feel good that Oberlin still boasts a faith community like this one.

As second-time visitors, we were incredibly shocked to hear the pastor, from the "pulpit," literally chide and shame the congregants who were not wearing face masks, calling them words like 'immature' and 'childish.' It is certainly no one's business why someone else without a face mask on is that way-- their medical condition, religion, whatever-- so to have a pastor treat people that way was very sad. These examples clearly aren't the type of leadership and church atmosphere the Bible calls for!
