THE RIVER CHURCH

The River Church exists to bring life to dead places by empowering everyday people to live and lead like Jesus. We do this through three things that we are pursuing: passionate spirituality, radical community, and missional zeal.

Our services are about as informal as they come. Our pastors will probably be in a t-shirt and jeans. Our service is a time of wholehearted surrender to Jesus. We ultimately ask people to consider two things each week: 1) God, what are you saying to me? 2) What am I going to do about it?

We have really been pursuing more of a culture of discipleship and seeking the Holy Spirit. Our people LOVE praising Jesus and love serving the community. We have many discipleship huddles happening currently, as well as life groups and others. We support a local elementary school by meeting with the kids and doing things for the teachers. As a staff, we work with Big Brothers Big Sisters and have Littles in this elementary school. We also work closely with a local nonprofit to go out and meet various needs in our community on a normal basis–painting houses, mowing yards, etc. We financially support many other nonprofits in Fort Wayne.

We love our church, and we love seeing the Lord using this community to move in amazing ways!
