What an amazing church!…read more First and foremost, the true Word of God is being spoken here straight from the Bible, not a teased out, diluted, tangential sermon. The pastor is very articulate, deliberate, non judgmental and on point. Great worship music. Very welcoming from the first encounter. Two Sunday services at 9am and 10:30am. Small groups, like women's, men's, young professionals, high and middle schoolers, international, national and local mission work seem to be of high value and import. Child care is over the top!

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

When I first attended Journey church, I was a little taken aback by the way members of leadership…read morewere so emersed in conversations, that they would fail to say hello to those who passed them in the lobby. 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.

I visited Christ the King Church for a Quiet Retreat on a Saturday in February 2026. I also visited…read morethe church for a Sunday morning church service back in December 2025. Prior to both of these days, I was given a quick tour of the church on a day after service, back in October 2025 by a friend who attends the church. Christ the King Church is part of the Vineyard Churches group of Christian churches. The church has a beautiful sanctuary inside that is fairly large with plenty of seating. The Sunday morning message by the Pastor is similar to other messages that I've heard from other non-denominational churches. The December 2025 church service that I attended was their Christmas service (it wasn't on Christmas Day). Their choir sang traditional Christmas carols and the piano player played organ sounds. It was lovely. The Quiet Retreat in February 2026 was a free and wonderful event. It was a Saturday spent with reading parts of scripture (The Holy Bible), praying as a group and individually, journaling (optional), and spending time alone in the church. With so much noise around us in the world, it was nice to spend the day in a little silence. The Quiet Retreat lasted from around 8am to 3:30pm and I had fun. The church provided snacks, tea, and lunch. It appears that they plan to do this retreat again so check their Instagram page or church website if you are interested in attending. If you are looking for a church in North Olmsted, then visit Christ the King Church. Everyone there is welcoming and friendly. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 135/250 total reviews in 2026 - 976 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 19 June 2026

I attend Mass and Confession at St. Mary' periodically; here are the highlights:…read more ~ Typical Mass and Confession times (see bulletin for changes): -- Sunday Masses (Vigil: 4pm; Sun: 8am, 10am, 12pm) -- Daily Masses are different each day: Mon: 7:30pm, Tues-Wed: 8:30am, Thurs: 7:30pm, Fri-Sat: 8:30am -- Confession: Sat: 2:30-3:30pm, Mon: 7-7:25pm -- Adoration with Benediction: Thurs: 5-7pm ~ The Church: It's a beautifully architected Church. I love looking at all the Saints, Mary, and Jesus up near / beyond the Altar. It is a small church and old -- you'll often hear constant screeching of the kneelers and a crackling sound as people sit in the pews. But I love the traditional looking churches; it makes it just a more special place. If you look up just above the Altar an amazing image of Jesus is there -- I often look at that image for a brief moment as the priest lifts up the Body and Blood of Jesus to help me imagine Him there visually present. ~ Music: For the most part, the music and cantoring is delightful. I love the traditional organ music, which is typically played at the 8am, 10am, and 12pm Sunday Masses. The 4pm Vigil Mass isn't as great as they don't use the organ and have a different cantor. ~ Priests, Staff, Congregation, Parishioners: Fr. Tom (who is the current pastor) is great. I love how he starts his homilies with an anecdote related to the readings and/or Gospel -- it often engages you to listen. He also has the heart of Jesus in the Confessional, just as you would hope. The deacon, who also does homilies periodically is good, but I just don't like the animated ones or ones where he sings. Outside the priest and deacon, I've met a couple of the people who help out setup and/or during the Mass and they are great people. However, there are parishioners that talk before Mass that you can hear clearly, and that time is meant to be silent so we can prepare our hearts for Mass. (See paragraph 45: https://www.vatican.va/roman_curia/congregations/ccdds/documents/rc_con_ccdds_doc_20030317_ordinamento-messale_en.html) All in all, it's a great church, great community, and love coming here when I am able.

When I am asked why we send our children to St. Mary, the obvious initial reason is that…read morereinforcement of our Catholic values and faith formation is important to our family. That being said, I cannot say enough about the curriculum and teachers that our children get to spend time with every day. I can vouch first-hand for any teacher, preschool through grade 8, and feel blessed every day by the team of teachers my children are lucky enough to have. The STEM program is top-notch, and I am constantly amazed by what my children are learning not just from books, but experiences each and every day. They are learning not just to memorize facts and processes, but to think through challenges, collaborate with others, and problem-solve, developing skills that will be critical for life. I am so impressed by the unity of the junior high teachers working as a team, setting the tone for expectations from the start of the year and making sure that students will be better than prepared for ANY high school they choose.
