Rochester,NY - List top 25 Churches

Angel Regan Enjoyed the services, Bible studies, fellowship, music...loving, caring life-giving group of leaders and congregation. Youth leader is going above and beyond for the youth.

Bryan Equinozzi North Ridge Church is truly a welcoming and uplifting place. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the sense of community, faith, and support. The worship experience is powerful and inspiring, with incredible musicians and top-notch production quality. The messages are always relevant to my life—uplifting, thought-provoking, and at times even entertaining. Whether you’re new to faith, returning after time away, or looking for a strong church family, this is a place where you can grow spiritually and feel at home. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a positive, faith-filled environment with amazing worship and engaging services!

Daniel Broadhead This is a very beautiful building filled with very nice people. Catholics are great people.

Patrizio Biondo At Sacred Heart Cathedral you will hear well grounded homilies with Fr. Peter VanLieShout; truly stellar advice during confession; beautifully organized and sung sacred chants and hymns thanks to their sacred choral director, John Morabito, who accompanies it with his lively and stunning pipe organ; and a smooth running operation of grounds due to their joyful office staff. Its a pleasure being part of the Cathedral Community @ Sacred Heart Cathedral!

Burrell Nicholás (Nico Nick) Reverend Celie katovich is remarkable and did an excellent job on our wedding ceremony! It was like she knew us on a personal level. She really paid attention and gave us a beautiful memory! But Angela was terrible at her job. She wasnt getting back to us everytime we tried to contact her and wouldnt until we contacted Reverend Celie. She took forever to save our wedding date even though we mentioned it over and over and she just kept saying it wasnt saved instead of saving it. I had to take over the wedding rehearsal and direct everyone because she really had no clue what she was doing. Then wasnt at the wedding ceremony but was suppose to leave explicit details for the two women who did oversee the ceremony and they seemed to have no clue what they were doing either. Our wedding service didnt go as planned. But it was still beautiful because of the gorgeous sanctuary and the wonderful loving words and spirit of Reverend Celie. They were all very nice people though.

Nisha Nikole My family and I loved this church, though we didnt stay long. We attended for a month or so before we stopped going. They had, I believe a guest speaker, he began preaching and within his sermon he stated "Jesus sinned too". I believe the pastor should know who hes allowing to teach before they mislead people. There should have been a correction statement before the end of service. As far as I know, nothing was done and I dont support lies and cant stand behind leaders that will not stand, publicly, for the Truth

Gibson Marie E (She-Her) A small and intimate congregation set in a gorgeous Tiffany sanctuary with amazing sacred music - a unique spiritual experience. Welcoming to all people.

Jack Curtis They believe in separating you from your money and use religion as a tool to do so. The pastor is a wealthy charlatan. Its a cult with the sole purpose of getting your money and selling you a false sense of security.

Jennifer L One of the few handful of churches in this Diocese still practicing preBergolian Catholicism. Its reverent and the Pastor doesnt stand for any novus ordo funny business. Celebrates the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass ad orientem. A holdout from the days in the Clark desert, this Mass will help your faith increase. Many luke warm believers have been brought to a deeper understanding by attending Fr As masses. Miracles happen at OLV.

Ralph Eckardt I have never been to the church in real time, and have only fellowshipped on line. I am very thankful that the church offers that service and will continue to do so post pandemic. I have found a place where I feel at home and supported in my lifes journey and that the congregation of this church are seeking and knowing God in a way that satisfies my soul. Thank you. In the picture I am with my granddaughter.

Jamell Cato Definitely has a beautiful garden... A place to feel peace... With a Serene view... Might make it my secret chill spot...

Timony Harris Ive been in attendance here and there since I was a ym, and recently, Ive unfortunately lost a family member and had another opportunity to revisit this church since a child and it is still 100% a beautiful site to see...

Caroline Arthmann I grew up going here but after me turning turning 14 and still hadnt made first communion my family decided to leave and go to a church that was in our area. And around a area we know.We miss Father Tony and all the parishioners but once in a while we decide to go to masses there once in a while to see every one. Plus we still have family going there.

Karma Zerep They have a great food program Monday through Friday from 6:00 to 7:00

Andrew Owens Ive had chronic migraines for over a year due to a concussion I went to get prayer after service. As I was explaining what I needed prayer for one lady asked "are you excited that Jesus is going to heal you?" I guess because my request didnt exude enough enthusiasm... After a few people prayed for me, she started to have me repeat something after her and I guess she didnt like my tone of voice and so she stopped me and said "do you want to be healed?" I said "yes, but I dont want you do speak to me like a kid" Unbelievable..

Travawn Hopkins You will feel the presence of the Lord in the atmosphere. Praise and worship is a must. Plenty of opportunities to get fed with the word of God.

Mark Bangs Really interesting. The service aas not Christian based. The theme was about the season we are in...outdoors and withing ourselves for those who are in that place. So, it was a MUD holiday. Which is perfect given what we have outside. And ee wete all inveted to celebrate the mud season with mud spread on our foreheads or hands. It was coordinated by all three Ministers. There was also an intentions and blessings ceremony for welcoming our youngest members ( mostly babies ) into our world. It also came with intentional vow by the church members to guide these children as they need and/or want to become...allowing them to grow without control and expectstions of family and all those that come to intereact with these earthly blessings. Afterward, I spent a fair amount of time speaking to several members about groups that I could join and do outreach work in our community and society. The Ministers and members were very welcoming.....just remember to put yourself out there. They are very responsive.

Timoteusz Taraski The priest,Ruth, has the heart of the Christ...

Emily Charles A very accommodating location for our purposes of Flower City Work Camp.

Rachel Mazique-Brucker My husband and I were married there! They have wonderful Deaf services too

Guy Coniglio Beautiful building. Prints and gifts available here https://guy-coniglio.pixels.com/

Marty Flynn Nice church, good service, great staff

Cecelia Maio Always a good time for Perogies. Plenty of food, good friends and fun to be had by all age groups.

Heather Conlan My family and I have been attending Browncroft Community Church since we moved to the area almost 4 years ago. Browncroft has something for everyone with the goal of growing your relationship with God. Pastor Rob leads his sermons with an open heart and has a clear message that always ties directly back to Scripture. The music is phenomenal and always moves my soul as another way to worship God. The children’s ministry is out of this world - my children, which cover a large age span, always come home with new knowledge and understanding of Bible stories. Watching their faith grow as they love to attend church is more than I could ask for! Browncroft’s mission to reach others is mobilized through their multitude of opportunities to serve - whether locally or globally. In addition, Browncroft encourages and supports small groups, which creates an atmosphere of a small church feel in a large church setting. The Bible studies and small groups that I have attended here have greatly strengthened my faith and created a strong, authentic church family. I cannot say enough positive things about Browncroft - this church has truly blessed me and my family. So, if you are in the area, come and visit … you may find this to be your church family too!

Faye Dundas This is a beautiful church. It is the oldest public building in Rochester, NY and is historically significant. The congregation is welcoming and the saying "Everyone Welcome "is truly practiced here. Services on Sundays at 8am and 10am. There is also a Jazz Vespers on the first Friday of each month at 5:15pm.
