Walked in the door the greeter didn't even say hi to me it just started talking to the person behind me. No one came up or greeted me or my son.

I am proud and grateful to be part of this growing family. Not all of us worship or experience our faith in exactly the same way, but we accept and respect one another. I have never belonged to a parish that I could truly call home until now. When I began my journey into the Orthodox Christian life, Father Ramos and Deacon Steven taught me about the history and traditions of Orthodoxy. They have been patient, welcoming, and eager to help make this journey meaningful. One of the beautiful things I have learned is that Orthodoxy does not go door to door looking for you--you find Orthodoxy. No one forces you to come, and no one pressures you to stay. The doors are open, and you are welcomed. You return because something in your heart calls you back, and, if Christ guides you, you continue the journey willingly. And it truly is a journey. You attend classes. You learn about Jesus Christ, His Apostles, and the history of the Church. Over time, you begin asking yourself: Is this what I believe? Is this the faith I profess? You attend Vespers and Divine Liturgy. You pray. You listen. You experience the life of the Church and ask yourself: Do I feel the presence of God here? Then, when you are ready, you are baptized and received into the Church. You become one with your parish family, receive Holy Communion, and experience the love of the holy, immortal, and living God. And somewhere along that journey, you simply know: You are home. truly home.

Everyone here is very welcoming. You can truly feel the love of Christ here. It was my first time…read morevisiting any Orthodox Church last Sunday and I know it will not be my last. The priest shows true care and compassion for people. I highly recommend at least visiting this parish.

They have childcare & youth services so the kids are learning at the appropriate speed & at their levels of understanding. The main church is never boring & the praise band is phenomenal with the selection of songs that really set the mood to receive God's word. Pastor Dave is amazing. He's a wonderful speaker & he's relatable so when he's giving the sermon of the day you understand & leave feeling like you gained some insight into Jesus' word. If I could give more stars I would. I definitely recommend visiting & experiencing for yourself.

Every staff member is incredibly dedicated. Dave Resinger, the pastor is personable, real, and approachable. Miguel the Worship Pastor plays great music and has an amazing team to put on a great performance each Sunday. They host a community dinner in Woodbrook on the third Friday of every month and just love on the community. It is a feel good place that really makes its members feel like they are supporting the community and moving towards Jesus. Marriage mentors are available, Life Groups help members get more intimately connected and go further in the Word. Candace and Michael are two hard working staff members that go to great length to support the church and make things happen. Dory overseas the GoHub in Woodbrook which supports the neighborhood there. These are good people who have a real mission to be more like Jesus and are well aware that they are human and flawed with the rest of us. The Church does a good job of being mission oriented and there isn't the social clique or hierarchy that seems present at some churches. It really is just good people getting together to serve and love one another.

They have a lot of compassion for the less-fortunate, and even serve free hot meals on Mondays. The really show they care. Not just a hot meal, but they offer a small food bank, free bread, and even a clothing bank! I love their bands they use! What blew me away was how awesome their teen band was! They are very, very impressive and they sing great too! They rotate different Pastors so you don't get the same one every week. I like that sometimes. But all of them are great! And funny sometimes! This church gets packed, so you might want to show up early if you want to be assured a parking spot or a seat. The cool thing is that if you are here for the first time, like maybe to check it out, they have visitor parking for first-timers! The only thing I used to think (and joke about) was it seemed they had "spies" who kept watch on the visitor spots so they could be sure to welcome them at the door! Nope, I was wrong... they do this to EVERYONE! You WILL feel welcomed and loved at Rainier View! They also have a lot of small groups, like a men's group, women's group, youth group, recovery group and even a singles group! Something for everyone! Not a lot more I can say about Rainier View except that you WILL love this church! By the way, they sing contemporary praise songs NOT out of hymnals, and NO speaking in tongues here (a concern of mine and I don't like hearing) so I really feel comfortable here! They offer free coffee and cookies in the foyer, but for those who desire more, they even have an espresso bar right there in the lobby! Oh my gosh! Back in 2006 I was diagnosed with a very major illness requiring me to stop working and have surgery within a month! It was an ER doctor who faxed a stop work order to my employer! Well, needless to say, I suddenly had no income and had no way to pay my upcoming rent nor my phone and power bills. I was forced to contact LOVE Inc, who called me saying they found a church who was going to pay 2 months of my power bill PLUS one month of my rent. But when they told me it was Rainier View, I almost started crying. This was my church, but they didn't know me because I've always been one of those quiet ones who tend to sit alone in the back row. I personally went in as soon as I was back on my feet after recovering from my surgery and thanked them and introduced myself as the person they helped. It was so nice of them, and I felt a need to thank them. The Lord certainly made sure there was a church big enough to fit all those who want to worship Him, then He blessed them all with very warm and loving hearts. God Bless you, RVCC!
