My husband and I are new here and would like to join a church on the Eastside.  We are Methodist, but I would also consider going to a Presbyterian Church.  We like traditional churches, but we are looking for some sort of couples group to meet people.  Does anyone have any ideas?

Look at the churches near the Shaker Hts / Cleveland Hts border.  I don't know much about them, but I believe there are a few Presbyterian churches along Fairmount.  The buildings are stunningly gorgeous.

 

I don't attend Church, but my mom attends and really likes Plymouth Church just south of Shaker Blvd and Coventry right on the Cleveland border.  It is a UCC church.  Non-denominational.  Open and accepting.  Somewhat diverse, albeit a little high on the average wealth of attendees given the location.  But everyone seems down to earth, very nice and non-judgmental.

There's a huge, traditional-looking Methodist church on Lee Road just south of the library.

There is a Presb. church on Euclid in University Circle. Church of the Covenant. Big, beautiful, etc.

Correct.... just north of Fairmount, where Monmouth intersects with Lee I believe.  There are also a bunch of churches at the Coventry/Fairmount intersection and some heading east on Fairmount past Lee.  As far as asthetics go, they are all gems.

Thanks! When I say traditional I mean no guitars, lights, rock bands and falling on the ground.  They have a lot of those in the South.  Thanks for all the advice!

The Methodist church on Lee Road is Church of the Savior. Here is their website:

They have several services each week and also have sermons (and maybe podcasts) posted on the website.

 

I think you should attend Cleveland Church of Christ!  AMEN!!
