Ignite is BACK!

Ignite is BACK!

After an extended winter break the youth group is back to regular schedule. Last Wednesday we had about 45 teenagers packing out the sanctuary playing games, singing songs, and hearing one of our youth pastors, Matt Kmetz, preach about how Zacchaeus climbed a tree to get a chance to see Jesus pass by. It was a great first club of the new year and we are excited to see God move in the next generation. The youth group is planning there annual trip to a conference in Walla Walla. The trip is $120 per person (ages 12-18) and will be a 3 day trip from March 2^nd-4^th. For more details, contact Matt Kmetz or Zack Gonzales.

Children's Classroom Shakeup

Children’s Classroom Shakeup

Entering the new year we decided to move around some of our classrooms. The nursery has moved from the north end of the portable into the church in the room closest to the front door. This will make it more convenient for mothers with young babies to go back and forth between their young ones and the service. The tree fort will still be used during the Wednesday night programming being provided during men’s and women’s bible study times. The 2-5 room will remain where it is across the hall from the bathrooms. The main room in the portable will be used for ages 6 through 10. Once our children turn 11 they will get to join youth pastors  Zack Gonzales and Matt Kmetz up front in the youth section. This will open up the room that used to be the nursery for a church office. Please bear with us as we work to make this transition as smooth and simple as possible for everyone involved. Feel free to introduce yourself to Kayla Palmer, our new children’s pastor, as she is working on improvements to the children’s ministry.

Plowing On Through

Plowing On Through 

Our parking lot is plowed (with a big thanks to Greg Zilke)! Tired of being cooped up and ready to get back to all of the wonderful ministries at Riverview Community Church? Maybe you are like others and are ready to get back into the routine but aren’t sure how you will go about parking at the church. No need to worry about that now. All three of our main parking areas have been plowed, the sidewalks salted, and the deck cleared off. Snow isn’t going to stop us from meeting this week! Ignite, men’s bible study, women’s bible study, AA, and primetime will all be up and going this week. Our winter wonderland was fun but we can’t wait to get this show back on the road!
