Every Tuesday morning from 9-11am, we clean up and restock the Twice Blessed Free Store at 990 Madison Avenue in Cleveland. That entails cleaning up and straightening the clothes and other items in the store after they were picked over on Saturday when our client were shopping. Then we restock the racks and shelves from items in our stock room.

Wednesday we meet at 19414 Detroit Road, Rocky River, OH 44116 which is our main church campus where we sort and tag weekly donations and prepare them to go to the Free Store. This is from 9-11am.

Thursdays we are back at the Free Store at 9900 Madision where we take the newly sorted and tagged donations and replenish the store and fill the stock room.

Saturday is our big day! We open our doors to our shoppers at 9:30am. Meet us between 9 and 9:20am. We typically wrap up by Noon.

Mission Statement

At Rocky River United Methodist Church we just want you to know that we want to be a part of that story so that we can help you see Jesus right in the midst of it. Why do we exist? Why does RRUMC exist in this world? Why do we as RRUMC members and attendees exist? We exist for one reason. Are you ready? We exist to help people meet Jesus Christ in the midst of their story. It really is that simple. That should be the filter that we run every single thing we do at this church through. That simple sentence lets people know that we will take them right where they are at in their lives. They don’t have to figure it all out before they come to our church. Jesus is in the midst of their broken and messed up stories. Our church exists to help people meet Jesus in the midst of that story.

Description
