Life Groups

Looking for a Christian community? Join a Life Group at The River Church!

A Life Group is a group of people who meet regularly to build each other up in Jesus. Some groups study the Bible, some share a meal, and some serve together. Some groups meet in homes, some meet at restaurants, and some meet at the church. There are groups of all ages, life stages, and backgrounds. No matter what you’re looking for, there’s a Life Group for you!

At the bottom of this page you will find Youth Life Groups available!
