Are you ready to go deeper, grow closer, and discover who you were made to be?

Ready when you are

At Riverbend, we want to create opportunities for you to connect with God and with others no matter where you are in your faith journey.

We never want you to feel pressured to take the next step before you're ready — but we're also here to help if you need it. Simply contact any of the Pastors listed below, and they'll be happy to answer any questions you might have.

Gathering by life-stage

When you join a group at Riverbend, you'll be surrounded by people in the same life-stage and age-range as yourself.

Whether you’re just starting out at 20, or pushing 90, we've probably got a group that's perfect for you. Additionally, we have topical/interest groups, as well as groups just for men and women. Keep scrolling to learn more.

Young Adults

 

Exploring our faith and our city, together.

When you're in your 20's and 30's it can be difficult to figure out where your faith fits into your life, relationships, and culture.

Come explore how faith and life connect, all while experiencing the weird and wonderful city we call home.

Family Groups

 

Families are unstoppable when they're a team.

Life with kids is challenging, rewarding, and exhausting — it's a chaotic, beautiful mess that parents know all too well.

In a family group, you'll have other parents to share in the highs and carry you through the lows. Come find your tribe.

What are you investing in?

Life is better when you invest your time in the things that matter most. We've experienced this with things like our careers and homes, but what about your faith and friendships?

By joining a group, you're making an investment in yourself, in life-long friendships, and in your community. We have groups for couples and singles.

Seniors

 

Building a legacy of community and faith.

If there's one thing the Seniors at Riverbend have shown to be true, it's that you're never too old to be an active part of your community.

Our groups for Seniors are thriving communities where you can show the church what it means to create a legacy that lasts.

Other Groups

Topical Groups

In a Topical Group, people of all ages and stages of life come together to learn, grow, and belong. These groups cover a wide variety of topics. Some groups study books together, while others use our Sunday sermons as a jumping off point for further conversations.

Men's & Women's Groups

The Men’s and Women’s Groups at Riverbend focus on helping you become more of the man or woman that God has called you to be. Our hope is that as we invest in a greater number of men and women, they too will invest spiritually in those within their circles of influence.
