The River 2025-2026
Every week on Tuesday and is an *ALL DAY* event

Tuesdays | 9:30-11:30am + 7-9pm | Sanctuary

Thursdays | 9:30-11:30am | Community Rm (Video/LIVE)

River Runs: September 23, 2025-May 07, 2026

Join us for “ALIVE: MADE NEW TO LIVE IN CHRIST,” a study of Philippians and Colossians to discover what it truly means to live fully alive in Christ. As Colossians 3:10 says, we “have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator.” Together we’ll explore living out this renewed life with joy, peace and purpose, even amid life’s challenges. Experience the freedom and fullness that comes when we embrace our life in Christ.

The River is a weekly Bible study offered both in person and virtually. Together we enjoy worship, live teaching, small group discussion, and prayer. In the process, women are able to make lasting friendships that are centered on a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
