The Riverview Area Community is where neighbors become family. Together, we share meals, grow in faith, pray for one another, and serve our local schools, foster families and neighborhoods. This is where church moves beyond Sunday services and becomes part of everyday life.

Life in Riverview
“Riverview Area Community has provided a way to meet new friends, grow relationships, and engage in impactful service opportunities.”
I appreciated & LOVED having meals brought to our family when we fostered Malachi & when I had my back surgery. It was such a blessing! People who I didn’t know brought us meals, so it was nice to meet new people & so nice of them to make a meal for complete strangers! ❤️”
Main Projects:
Riverview Elementary beautification, WFC Foster/Adoption Christmas Party, Meal Trains for neighbors in moments of need
Why Area Communities Matter

Living near one another makes it natural to celebrate, care, and build lasting rhythms of support.

Visible in the Neighborhood
