This is the church that is the standard to which I compare all others. My mother first took my siblings and I to Cascade when I was in 7th grade. Middle school and high school were difficult times, and there were definite cliques within the youth group. However, I had an amazing youth pastor named Aaron Day. He genuinely cared about us, and went out of his way to make sure we were doing alright. The senior pastor, Nate, is an excellent pastor. While he may seem distant, he does know his congregation. I no longer attend Cascade regularly, just due to the distance. However, I highly recommend it if you live close to Monroe. I honestly do not know where I would be spiritually if I hadn't gone to Cascade, as they taught me what it looks like to be a christian and it was there that I found my faith. read more

My sister and her husband moved to Monroe in early 2000's and made Cascade their home church. Each year we would go to Christmas Eve service with them, and as their family grew and ours also we also joined for the fall festival/carnival and other activities. My son and I looked forward to the events every year. My sister, brother in law and nephews enjoyed the programs there and were regular (maybe tardy) attendees. I have found the services to be varied and energetic, focusing on family and love. I especially enjoyed the candlelight services. I have always been impressed with the community outreach that they do. Each Holiday they chose a local cause to support, and do a pass the hat type of thing to garner awareness and support. It's moving and neat to see them reach outside of their home congregation and make a difference in the community at large. This last year, we experienced a devastating loss. One of the pastors came with the police to notify us of our loss. He knew them, and was able to give comfort on that first night. They reached out, and held us through this process. They were patient and kind, and dealt with our crazy through the grief. They offered support, and gave our family a place to be safe from the chaos surrounding our tragedy. Ours is thankfully not a normal situation, but I will tell you I am impressed by the love that group shows, the patience and the sense of community. As far as an organization goes, they have engaging content, and fun activities (esp for the kids), but as far as Christians go, I'm completely blown away by the whole. read more

Never been to a perfect church, but I love Cascade. Started going here with my family when they were toddlers and they're now graduating college with a strong faith in Jesus, active in ministry and loving people no matter where they are in their personal faith. Cascade has been a big part of our spiritual growth and relationships both inside and outside the church community. Relatively big church with three services every Sunday. Not so big that it's hard to connect, but not so small that you'll be noticed as a visitor either. You'll probably need to say "hi, I'm visiting...." to a greeter or someone at the information counter or cafe' to be noticed. Cascade is Missions-oriented and is also active in the local community, supporting other Christian charities like Matthew House or Take the Next Step. Cascade is also the parent church of many newer church plants in Washington State and beyond. Messages often presented by founding pastor, but you get a good variety of speakers with other pastors on staff and the occasional visiting speaker. Messages are usually part of a series based on a book of the Bible or a Topic. Cascade's motto is "Love God, Love People, Live Generously", AKA "L3". If you see the 'L3' sticker on a bumper or car window, that's probably someone who goes to Cascade Church. Cascade is currently the largest church in Monroe, so there are a lot of us out there. Worship team has a good mix of contemporary Christian and traditional hymns and a group of very talented musicians. If you're looking for a Church home, I found it at Cascade. Maybe you will too. read more

I don't like rating a church but I feel so strongly about my experience there that I'm hoping if I share it, maybe it could help someone else. Large church, great service options, spirit filled pastor who knows what he's talking about. Lots of families and a great youth program. We attended Cascade for 6 months and met the pastor twice and that was because we stood in line after a service for 15 minutes. He didn't even know who we were at the end of the 6 months. I joined the choir and regret ever doing that. There was a small group/click which included the group leader and if you weren't part of that click you were on the outs. I was hurt beyond belief. I had no choice but to quit this group. 2 phone calls to the pastor were never returned and I don't think anyone even noticed that we ever left. This wasn't the place for our family but it's still a place where you will here the word of God and see God moving in people's lives. Churches aren't made up of perfect or sinless people. And not everyone has these types of experiences. If mine had not been so painful I probably wouldn't have shared this, read more

Once was one time too many! There was not one worship song, Pastor didn't use biblical reference for any of his points, I'm not sure he even had any points, just emotion based comments with no backup with sound biblical teaching, don't bother! read more
