This Week: April 4th, 2021
Happy Easter. As we reflect on the importance of this day, we should also look back at where we were this time last year. Uncertainty and fear gripped our nation as we began to understand more about a new virus that was spreading rapidly and increasing its toll on our elderly and at risk citizens. Church services were cancelled and Easter came and went at a time when we needed to experience it more than ever. If anything, Easter is a promise. It is our hope. It is proof that we've been given power over death and there is a life after this one. The creator came to live amongst the created. He experienced emotions that we experience - sadness, anger and even fear. Then, after being broken, bled and put to death on a cross, he was laid in a tomb seemingly putting an end to the story. However, the stone of that tomb was rolled away and the creator became our savior as He stepped away, now a living sacrifice and testament to the love God has for us. If you've ever felt afraid, ever felt insignificant, marginalized, lost, and without hope, understand this - the creator of all things made you for a purpose and gave his only son Christ Jesus that you may have life everlasting. That is something to celebrate. Christ is alive. He is alive indeed!
This Week's Sermon
April 4th, 2021 - Easter Service. Pastor Jonathan welcomes our church family to this year's Easter Service. After the pandemic of 2020 took center stage in our lives, Easter came and went last year with many people losing on focus on the importance of the resurrection. Pandemic or not, with Jesus, we're getting out of this thing ALIVE!

Who We Are
Rockvale Cumberland Presbyterian Church has been a landmark in Rockvale Tennessee since 1889 at a simpler time when church was an integral part of the community. Church members were family that leaned on each other in times of struggle and celebrated together in times of joy. This spirit lives on in our diverse congregation bound together by a love for Christ and for one another. Our motto is simple, 'Whosoever will, is welcome - just as you are', in the manner as Christ said 'Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.' We hope to see you this Sunday morning.
