Welcome to Rockton United Church!
We are currently participating in UCC Rural Connects. This involves having a "Hub Church" with "Satellite Churches". Southampton UC is the Hub Church and Rockton UC and Sheffield UC are satellite churches.
On Sunday mornings announcements start at 9:45am and we connect to Southampton and their minister at 10am for a meaningful worship service. There is congregational participation and the perfect way to have Sunday Services for the foreseeable future!
Our hope is to help you
experience the Living God by facilitating worship that brings you into
the presence of the Holy Spirit by witnessing to the Gospel of Jesus
Christ. That's our way of saying we bring a message of hope and love to
our community, and we'd like you to join us to see what God is doing in
this place
Our sanctuary front door is 2 steps off ground level with hand rails for assistance.
A
portable wheel chair ramp can easily and quickly be put in place for
those needing it at our side door which opens into our fellowship hall
and Sunday School space. Please let us know and we'd be glad to assist
you!
All rooms of the church are on one level for ease of movement.
Office Hours :
Until further notice, there will be no office hours.
