“Dan Painter, a gifted pastor who brings biblically based messages to all. Mission focused with an attitude of "Go and Grow". A growing body of believers and searchers for a profound relationship with the risen Lord. What a joy to be in this place of worship!”
“Friendly & welcoming church :) We visited from out of town and felt at home with everyone we talked with. Thank you for a great worship service & message!”
“RCC is a non-denominational church that meets Sundays at 9:30 AM at Washington Jr. High School. They have a Ministry Center at 710 E. Ogden Ave. #300 that serves as their office and for various gatherings like youth group.RCC is welcoming and embraces you at your comfort level. It's refreshing to be welcomed to a community and people actually come up to you, say hello, and genuinely want to get to know you. The worship service is held in-person and can be viewed on their YouTube live stream. If you come in person, they serve coffee and some light snacks which is great!There are Sunday school classes for children, and they post the teaching content on YouTube and it's also accessible in a parent app!The size of this church is not overwhelming, and it's inspiring to see how they serve the community in outreach and the people that attend their weekly service. There are many families, children, youth, and young adults making it easy to find people at your life stage.”
“Met such lovely people looking for ashes, for Ash Wednesday. Mary Lou welcome us as we entered the church. She asked us to stay for the Rosary which we did. We had a great fellowship with Camille, Barbara, Linda, and Magda following the rosary. My sister and I are looking forward to our next visit.”
“No, this is not Henry. It is his wife, Beverly. This church is there to feed you spiritually. It's more than a building. People care. I know because I just lost Henry to Covid-19 and the caring warmth pouring out from church members has helped sustain me during my hours of grief. Both Henry and I were active members of the church. The church members recognize "We are the church!" Always there for each other. Always seeking and finding God's grace within its walls and being uplifted by each. It is through involvement that one realizes they are gaining more than one could give. It is through being a St. John Lutheran Church member in Darien that we recognize Jesus working through its members. Some things that seem small acts of kindness at the time are huge things to others. Come and see and experience this for yourself. The Holy Spirit will be there to guide and direct you. Jesus has promised this. Bev Grimme”
“During my visit, the gopuram was under reconstruction, making navigation a bit challenging. However, purchasing archanai tickets was easy, thanks to a self-service kiosk, and there was no queue. The priests were friendly and very helpful. The cafeteria offers a wide variety of delicious vegetarian dishes, including dosa, vada, pongal, and various sweets. The food tastes amazing!”
