Who we are
The River Church simply desires to be a community of people who orient their lives around the person of Jesus. We want to be like Him! So whether you are well on your way on this journey down the river, or just beginning to explore what it means to step in, the invitation is simple. Open Your Heart to the Adventure - we invite you to join us on this adventure of living a life of faith in Jesus.
The River Churches guiding ideas are these: GET REAL (Grace-Filled, Engaged, Truthful, Relational, Experiential, Authentic, Loving).
One of the other guiding ideas that make us unique is that we embrace a Simple Church Hybrid Model, which we believe fits with our values, allowing us to be the kind of people God has called us to be in this community.
So every 2nd & 4th Sunday is devoted to getting all the Simple Churches together in what we call our CWG (City Wide Gathering). Then every 1st and 3rd Sundays we gather together in smaller gatherings, called Simple Churches, one of which is always at Don Ross Secondary School.
The occasional Sunday when we have 5-Sundays per month, we do something called “The Church Has Left the Building”, where we leave it up to the Simple Church Leaders to go after what God has put on their heart to do in the community (this can be things like prayer walk, a hike or ride that is all about connecting with your neighbour, hosting a community bbq on your street, picking up garbage in a certain area of town).
If you are looking for a Christ Centered Faith Community, and who God made you to be seems to fit who God called us to be, we invite you to join us on four consecutive Sunday's to give you a better understanding of our worship life here at The River Church. Then if after the 4 weeks, you feel at home, and have a clear sense God's Spirit would be delighted if you called the River your church family...we'd love to have you!!!

Shalom,
Pastor Darcy Reimer

Under 12s:
River Kids
The Vision of River Kids is or kids to have a safe place where they know God’s love, learn what it means to be like Jesus and experience the power of the Holy Spirit in their lives.
Leaders: All leaders/teachers in our children’s programs are members of the River Church and have completed criminal record checks. For safety, we follow the policies and procedures outlined in Plan To Protect. If you have any questions regarding our children’s ministries please contact Kenda Reimer at [email protected]
River Kids: K-grade 7
Teachers: Kenda Reimer
After being dismissed from the service, we meet in the far hallway.
1st and 3rd Sundays we use What's in the Bible? video clips in the Sunday Gathering, coinciding with shor adult oriented talks. Come check out this new way to do church.
Little Dippers
No designated teachers. This is a parent participation/supervision area where parents are responsible for their own children. This area is a carpeted location just inside the first hallway across from the gym. We have toys, books, etc for the kids and a speaker so adults can still hear the service. Because of noise, we ask that there is no running in the hallway while the service is on. As fun as it is, it does make it difficult for those near the back to hear.

I ask for...
I ask you neither for health nor for sickness, for life nor for death; but that you may dispose of my health and my sickness, my life and my death, for your glory... You alone know what is expedient for me; you are the sovereign master, do with me according to your will. Give to me, or take away from me, only conform my will to yours. I know but one thing, Lord, that it is good to follow you, and bad to offend you. Apart from that, I know not what is good or bad in anything. I know not which is most profitable to me, health or sickness, wealth or poverty, nor anything else in the world. That discernment is beyond the power of men or angels, and is hidden among the secrets of your providence, which I adore, but do not seek to fathom.
