Celebrate the “ATXMas” Season at Riverbend
What is ATXMas? Well, it’s a little unexpected. A little unconventional. And a lot like Austin.
We know the Christmas story by heart, but what if we’ve forgotten just how unexpected, unconventional, and wonderfully strange it really is? This Christmas, our sermon series, “ATXMas,” invites us to rediscover the story through the spirit of the city we call home: a little different, wonderfully diverse, unpretentious, and never afraid to challenge convention. Join us December 6, 13, and 20 as we celebrate a Christmas story that’s anything but ordinary.
Can’t make in Sundays? We’d love to see you at our Christmas events! Scroll below for more info.
Christmas Eve @ Riverbend

We invite you and your family to join us this Christmas Eve at Riverbend! We’ll be joined by singer/songwriter Holly Frost and some of Austin’s best musicians.
All of our Christmas Eve services feature fantastic music by some of Austin’s most talented musicians, and we close each service by singing Silent Night by candlelight. Children and infants are invited to join their parents at the services.
