Be enriched and encouraged as you listen to the latest talks and music from River Church. We believe in a personal relationship with God which is made possible by the life, death and resurrection of his Son, Jesus Christ; and that relationship affects everything we do. Our experience is that the supernatural power of God, which we read about in the Bible, can still be known today in our own lives (You can expect one to three new MP3 podcast episodes each week).

Pilgrims stay open to the Spirit and keep learning about their faith; understand that God is always working, going ahead of us; and carry God’s grace to be a blessing to others.Door Paul Wratten

Mission is often pragmatic. How is God leading you? Choose to see His hand, and don’t give up. Need a turning point? Set you minds on things above, praise & pray.
