Inspirational Messages
Sermons provide a congregation with the opportunity to listen to and learn from a pastor’s or lay pastor’s reflection and teaching based upon scripture. For more than 31 years, Rev. Dr. Jon Fancher delivered sermons at Rocky River Presbyterian Church.
With Rev. Fancher’s retirement after the October 2, 2022 service, we have been invited guest preachers to lead us in worship while we search for a regular Gap Pastor who will hopefully be in place for Advent. In the meantime, our Transitional Pastor Search Committee is already accepting applications to fill the transitional role to help us decide how to evolve and identify our next Called Pastor.
Here you can listen to past sermons. Whether you are listening to a sermon for the first time or listening to it again with deeper appreciation, we welcome you to this virtual worship experience.
Printed versions of RRPC sermons are also always available in the church lobby for reading or sharing with friends.
