Welcome from the
Pastor
God is doing a great work in
and through the people of
Riverland Hills. Whether this is
your first visit here or you have
come searching for answers,
or you have been on your
Christian journey for years,
God knows the needs and
circumstances of each of us.
The good news today is that He
is ready to provide the wisdom
and instruction you will need
for any issues you may face in
the days ahead.
God loves you and He has
a marvelous plan for you
personally. I pray you will allow
Him to work in your life, giving
you direction from His Word
on how to live a satisfying and
significant life.
His plan for your life is a home
church. Let me be one of the
first to invite you to become
part of our congregation. Let us
know how to get in touch with
you, and we will try to answer
your questions.
Blessings,
Added to The Family
