Rockwood United Methodist Church

Rockwood United Methodist has several groups and programs available for our spiritual growth. Many meet throughout the year, others are short-term and there are several that are special one time events!

Chancel Choir

Our Music Program
   We have one of the best small church choirs in the area! Men and women of the choir have full, rich voices and love to sing for the Lord!  The choir is always open to new members.  They practice Wednesday evenings at 6:30 p.m.  Catherine Nicewood is the director.  
   We also have a bell choir directed by Lonnie Clester.  They practice on Wednesdays at 8 pm.
 
Praise Band!
     We have a newly formed Praise Band, made up of piano, drums, and two guitars, and a vocalist, that plays for our Saturday night service.  The group is looking for more players!
 
  

Adult Education.

We have one adult class that meets each Sunday from 9 - 10 a.m. in the Fireside Room

We also have several special studies at various times during the year such as Bible 101 - a ten-week overview of the Bible; a four-week study of the Will of God; Discovering our Spiritual Gifts workshop; and other Bible and Interest studies conducted by our pastor. 

Disciple I & III - these popular nine month in-depth and transforming reviews of the Bible are led by the pastor.

A Centering Prayer Group meets monthly, 10 a.m., fourth Friday.

Missions
 
SnowCap
This is one of the largest food pantry programs in theNorthwest.  Our church invited Snowcap to build their facility on our church property for a 40 year lease at $1 per year.  Many of our members along with other local church members volunteer at Snowcap and once a month we gather funds, food and clothing for this mission.
 
Greathouse Mission

United Methodist Men
Our active men's group gathers the second Sunday of each month for a 7:30 a.m. breakfast.  In February the men bake and decorate cakes to be bid upon by the ladies of the church for Valentines.
