WELCOME TO RIVERSTONE CHURCH! THE GOSPEL AND GRACE RELATIONS Division, hostility and outright grievous sin still plague 21st century America with respect to race relations. How should Christians process the current state of race relations within a biblical framework? Are there practical ways that we can respond to foster unity, love and reconciliation? On February 18 at 11:00 am in the Woodside Room, Pastor Austin Delgado will lead our next Crosstalk forum to equip and empower us to live out our callings as agents of reconciliation in a world of division.

Friday, February 2 at 7:00 pm Join us for prayer and worship as we begin this new year. "Cast your burden upon the LORD and He will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be shaken." – Psalm 55:22 Saturday, March 24 from 1:00 – 3:00 pm Egg hunt & activities for kids of all ages! Volunteers are needed for prep work and/or the day of the event. You do not need to be KidsSafe. Contact Janet Miller or Kim Rhoades if you are interested.
