If you are interested in becoming a part of our church family and want to know where to start, here are some of the first steps you can take!
Discipleship U is our discipleship pathway. Your faith walk is a lifelong journey, but you have to start somewhere. This pathway was created to help you DISCOVER what it means to be a Christian, GROW in your faith and in your relationship with Christ, and GO live out your God-given purpose by sharing God’s love and God’s word with others. The introductory series includes six one-hour classes offered several times throughout the year.

Once you’ve learned what it means to say “Yes” to Christ and understand what we believe as United Methodists, we invite and encourage you and your family to consider getting baptized and/or taking your membership vows. If you have been previously baptized, our reaffirmation ceremony gives you the opportunity to remember your baptism and reaffirm your commitment as a follower of Christ. Contact the pastor for more information.
Here at Riverside, we believe that getting plugged in with the body of Christ and engaging in regular fellowship is vital to our growth as Christians. One of the best ways to do this is to get connected with a Small Group. Small Groups are designed to connect you with fellow church members so that you can grow in your walk with Christ through fellowship, prayer, and studying God’s Word together. Take a look at our Small Groups page to learn more about how to get connected.
Wednesday Night Alive!
Bring your family and friends out 5:15pm-7pm each Wednesday during the school year for an evening of food, fellowship, and fun! A light meal will be served downstairs in Peterson Hall at 5:15p, followed by a time of reflection, praise, and prayer. At 6pm, there will be small group studies and activities for all ages. There is no charge for the meal, but love offerings are graciously accepted.
