New Ministry, Complete Fitness

We have multiple new ministries starting up as part of RiverView's Fall Back Into Church Month, one of which is Complete Fitness. Complete Fitness will occur every Tuesday and Thursday from 9:00am-10:00am beginning September 8th. This will provide opportunity for previous gym trainer, Anja Shoun, to lead members to improved health. Mentally, this class will get your endorphin's up and help members prepare to face the day. Physically, it will help get members into better health. Spiritually, we're called to honor and taking care of the body God has given to each of us. Membership will be $30/month or $5 for drop in.


An Awesome Night at Thirst

WOW!!!! Thirst last Friday evening was SO great! That may be the fullest we've seen the building since RiverView came into ownership of it-not only were all our chairs spoken for, most of the standing room was taken as well. What a talented line up and awesome worship. God showed up in a mighty way!
We have some great performances coming up in September as well, don't miss out, this is the place to be on a Friday night. Follow our Facebook Page, Thirst, to stay in the loop about upcoming artists, events, and everything Thirst.

Women's Retreat 2016

The women had a great weekend at the Christian Renewal Center all centered on Psalms 23. There were four sessions, Becky Neuschwander taught two focusing on us, the sheep and Denise Burck taught two focusing on God, the shepherd. On Saturday, the women had a morning session and an evening session. In between the two, they split up and some went into Silverton for shopping and lunch and some went hiking with a sack lunch. In the afternoon, the ladies made magnets with different words from the scripture. Sunday morning contained one more session before the ladies headed home with a renewed passion for and understanding of God. Click Here to View Album With Women's Retreat Photos.

Summer Camp Success!!!

What an amazing week filled with fun activities, great bonding time, and meaningful messages/worship. While most of the twenty teens that came with us to camp had already given their life to Christ, they all came home with a renewed fire to reach their town for Jesus!
