Operation Christmas Child

National Shoebox Collection Week: November 12–19, 2018 Register at www.riverstone.church Sign up for a specific day and time to help fill and load shoe boxes for Operation Christmas Child. It is a fun way to meet new people and contribute to an exciting world-wide ministry.

CONFIDENT WITNESSING IN A CONTENTIOUS WORLD Today at 11:00am in the Woodside Room If the gospel of Jesus Christ is “good news” then why are we so intimidated to share it with others? Pastor Austin will share how we can confidently and comfortably share the good news of the gospel with those around us despite powerful influences in opposition to our message. New Member Classes begin October 21 Classes are a requirement for membership, however, there is no obligation to join at the end of the classes. We meet for 6 weeks at 11:00am in Room 241. Register online at www.riverstone.church.
