Our Vision

The River Church exists to glorify God by Reaching the world, Gathering with the Saints, and Growing in the Word.

“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” 

Matthew 28:19-20 

REACH

At The River Church, you will often hear the phrase, “we don’t go to church, we are the Church.” We believe that as God’s people, our primary purpose and goal is to go out and make disciples of Jesus Christ. We encourage you to get involved with some of these areas that are devoted to reaching the world in our local communities. 

GATHER

Weekend Gatherings at The River Church are all about Jesus, through singing, giving, serving, baptizing, taking the Lord’s Supper, and participating in messages that are all about Jesus and bringing glory to Him. We know that when followers of Christ gather together in unity, it’s not only a refresher it’s bringing life-change. 

GROW

Growth Communities are designed to mirror the early church in Acts as having “all things in common.” They are smaller collections of believers who spend time together studying the word, knowing and caring for one another relationally, and learning to increase their commitment to Christ by holding one another accountable. Growth Communities have many different looks from being in a home to sitting in a classroom, but the focus is always on people gathering together to study the Word of God. 

General Serving Guidelines

<p>Serving comes from an overflow of our love for and passion to glorify Christ. In&nbsp;1 Corinthians 12:27, Paul writes, <strong><i>“Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it.” </i></strong>No matter what area of ministry you’re serving in, never forget the One we’re serving. Be sure you are seeking to glorify Christ in your life every day!</p>
<p>Our goal is to create a safe, welcoming, and comfortable environment for all those who step foot into any of The River Church locations! Remember these basics as you pray and prepare for the team(s) in which you’d like to serve:<br><br></p>
<ul>
<li>Your attitude and actions not only reflect the church, but more importantly Christ.</li>
<li aria-level="1">Make sure to welcome all guests with a smile, wave, and heart-felt “Hello!”</li>
<li aria-level="1">Dress modestly. Please do not wear any skin-tight, revealing, or graphic clothing while serving.</li>
<li aria-level="1">As a representative of The River Church, while officially serving during a church gathering or other event, please refrain from the consumption of alcohol and from the use of tobacco products.</li>
<li aria-level="1">Be active in the church, not only in serving, but also by attending a Growth Community.</li>
</ul>
<p>Whether you’re the first face they see in the parking lot, or you’re serving behind the scenes on the production team, remember that in all we do, it is vital that we continually show the love of Christ in our actions!</p>

GROW

Some churches have Sunday school. Other churches call it BLT (Bible Learning Time). You may have heard of small groups, mid-week service, BSF (Bible Study Fellowship), Bible classes, or many other variations of teaching in the church. At The River, we have groups that meet Sunday mornings, Wednesday nights, Saturday mornings, and in homes throughout the week. We put all of these into one category we call Growth Communities. A Growth Community is a group of people who are interested in growing in their relationship with Christ, growing with one another relationally, and representing the body of Christ in smaller reflections of the larger church. 1 Thessalonians 2:8 says, “So, being affectionately desirous of you, we were ready to share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own selves, because you had become very dear to us.” The majority of people in Growth Communities are Christians (though we do not require that), who attend gatherings and are looking to become more mature in their faith. This will be accomplished by studying God’s Word, connecting relationally, and serving together.
