Ministery To the Needy
We are proud to support and partner with ministries birthed within our community and outside of it, all united with one goal: to bring hope to the hopeless and healing to broken places.
"Go into the world and announce the message of God's good news to all people." Mark 16:16

Wedding Venue and Marriage Ministry
As the marriage goes, the family goes. As the family goes, the church goes. As the church goes, the community goes. As the community goes, so the nation goes. Couples Connect groups, marriage events and conferences and marriage resources help to strengthen the marriages and families of our church. An important piece of our marriage ministry here at the church is our wedding venue. Please view the link for our wedding venue website for a complete list of our services.
Connect Groups
River Connect Groups are a great way to make new friends, build strong relationships and grow spiritually in smaller groups on a regular basis. Whether it is through studying the Bible together, serving alongside one another, or sharing a common interest, you will enjoy the blessing of sharing life together at The River Connect Groups! Sign up at the River Connect Center Sundays.
River Life Classes
The River Life Track classes were designed with you in mind, and how we can make a difference united together. Whether you are new to The River or have been attending for a while, you will love these four classes. In the first class, we will share the history and vision of the church (101), the second and third classes cover the foundations of the Christian faith and what we believe (102, 103) and the fourth covers how you and your family can connect and flourish as valued members of the church. (104). Classes meet after church Sundays. Register at the Connect Center.
River Kids
We believe that teaching children to love God and others takes place in both the home and in the church. For this reason we seek to partner with parents (the greatest teachers of all) and teachers in a plan to present amazing Sunday lessons that are reenforced throughout the week. Through fun experiences, meaningful worship, understandable teaching and ministry that encourages kids to participate, we present Bible teaching in a powerful, relevant way, creating moments which children will never forget. Our goal is to raise up a generation of purpose, passion, prayer and power…children who know their God, know they are loved and are ignited to love this world.
