Discover an Alternative Way to Live at River Fellowship Church
About Us:
What if you could be part of a community that dares to live differently—24/7—a place where faith isn’t just a Sunday routine but a vibrant, transformative force as a way of life? At River Fellowship Church, we’re not just imagining this kind of life; we’re building it together. We’re a community with a bold vision: to spark, shape, and sustain an alternative Christian community, like the Church in the first century recorded in the Book of Acts.
What Does It Mean to Be Different—an Alternative Community?
In a culture that pulls us to conform to its standards, God invites us to something more. The Bible calls us to be “a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession” (1 Peter 2:9, NIV). This isn’t about blending in—it’s about standing apart, living with purpose, love, and courage. At River Fellowship, we’re asking, “What if we truly lived as the Body of Christ, united in both faith and action?” And here’s something exciting: we believe the same supernatural power of the Holy Spirit that empowered the early Church and indwelled its Believers is still available to us today. Imagine a life where miracles, wonders, and God’s presence are part of God's everyday provisions.
The challenge is real. Our world squeezes us into its mold, leaving little room for the radical faith Jesus modeled. Romans 12:2 urges us, “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind” (NIV). But how do we live this out in a society that prioritizes comfort and conformity over conviction? The answer lies in the authentic Christian community—a faith-filled, purposeful community that reflects God’s heart for justice, hope, and unity—in both ‘Word’ and ‘Deed’.
The Power of Together
Every step we take together matters. Imagine if all of us, every prayer, every conversation, every act of service was infused with the goal of building a community that shines God’s light. Studies show that people thrive in connected, purpose-driven communities: a 2020 Barna study found that 68% of Christians feel more fulfilled when actively engaged in a faith community ‘that serves others’. At River Fellowship, we’re not just a church; we’re a movement of people committed to living out God’s love in practical, inspiring ways, in both Word and Deed.
We know it’s not easy. Cultural pressures often pull us into isolation or routine, even in ministry. But Jesus didn’t call us to go it alone—He called us to be one, as He and the Father are one (John 17:21). That’s why we’re starting right where we are, with small, intentional acts that spark big change. Whether it’s serving a neighbor, praying with a friend, or standing for justice, every action is necessary and counts. Together, these sparks can ignite a fire that transforms our families, our neighborhoods, and beyond.
