Be Our Guest

No matter what you think church is or what you’ve experienced before, we want you to know that The River is not that church. As a first time guest, you are going to be treated with extra special care. Join us on Sundays at 10 am.

who we are

The River Church is more than a building, an organization, a man, or a Sunday. We are not about religion, rules, or tradition. We are passionate about being a part of a movement of God that makes Him famous through Loving God, Loving People, and Changing the World through the power of the Gospel! At the River you will find a group of people united by a common relationship with Jesus Christ.

Our Vision

We seek to make followers of Jesus Christ who love God, love people, and change the world.

Love God

We believe the most important thing in life is to love God with all of who we are and to grow in our relationship with Him. People need to know this. We desire for people everywhere to come to know and love God through the life changing power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and then to glorify Him with their lives.

Love People

We believe that loving relationships should permeate every aspect of the Christian life. We do this by bearing one another’s burdens, by praying for one another, by participating in community groups, and by serving others as the body of Christ.

Change the World

We believe that God has called us to be a movement beyond ourselves that serves our community and plants the Gospel around the world. We believe that every Christian is created and gifted for ministry and has been given a mission. We are called to live as missionaries to share the message and the love of Jesus Christ with our neighbors, in our community and beyond our borders. Our mission is to make disciples, send missionaries, and plant the gospel.

Leadership

The River is an elder-led church. Elders at The River are called by God to shepherd and lead the local church. They meet regularly to establish direction of the church, discuss theology, and lovingly disciple people at The River.
