A Message from our Pastor
At Riverbend, we believe that God’s love is the greatest foundation you can build your life on. Our ultimate purpose isn't just to be a place you visit, but a place where you can deepen your faith in the Lord and grow in a real, life-changing relationship with Jesus Christ.
We know starting a faith journey can be tough, and we promise you won’t have to do it alone. Whether you’re full of questions, seeking hope, or just looking for a kind face, we are here as your local community to help you take that next meaningful step.
You belong here.
For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.
– John 3:16
Because God so loved the world—that includes you—He didn't just send a message, but sent His one and only Son, Jesus, demonstrating a deep, personal, and unwavering love that offers you a chance at a full and lasting life. That incredible good news means you don't have to face your struggles alone; we, your friends at Riverbend, are a community here to walk alongside you, encourage you in that truth, and help you take your next steps in faith.
