 Our elevator is still currently out of order. The technician has ordered new parts, but we're unsure of the timeline as to when he receives them and their being installed. We'll keep you updated as we learn more.
Again, we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience. If you are unable to get to the Worship Center, we do have seating in the Library where the service is livestreamed. |

All men are invited this Saturday from 8:00 to 10:00 am. to join us for breakfast and continued training through Tactics: A Game Plan for Discussing Your Christian Convictions.

We are thrilled to welcome new babies to our RiverValley family!
We celebrate with Steven and Brandi Blader on the recent birth of their son Grant.
May God's blessings be on this family during this exciting time!
If you have a new baby that we have not yet acknowledged, please let us know! We want to celebrate all new babies in our church, and we don't mean to overlook anybody.
Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” -- Matthew 19:14

RVC | Women
We’re so thankful that God has created us for community and discipleship. We love where this is already happening within our church, and we desire to create even more opportunity for women to engage in mentoring and discipling one another in Christ. As the first of several steps, we would love to meet with you to talk about mentoring (even if you desire to be mentored yourself). Please sign up after service this Sunday or email Sara McCulloch. |
