Life Groups
We believe we were designed to live in community, so we have many different groups available to help you get connected at Riverside.
Life Groups are designed to help you connect with others and to grow together in faith and encourage one another. Typically they are relationships & discussion-based, but we also have some groups that are more geared toward a “deep dive” into your faith. If you are looking for connection, Life Groups are where you want to be, so check out what we have available for you!
