Our Mission

Our Purpose

Our Philosophy

Our Values

 
"To provide opportunities for un-churched people in the Southeast South Dakota area to investigate Christianity in a safe environment at their own pace and provide opportunities for followers of Jesus Christ to join the mission and enjoy the process as they grow in Christ."

Essential Elements

Our prayer is that God will use the River of Life Community Church to create:

  • A strong network of small groups (community groups) for the purpose of relationship building, Bible study, a sense of belonging and evangelism.

  • Passionate and creative worship that draws us closer to Jesus and each other and gives explorers a "visual" of what it really means to have a personal relationship with Jesus... to truly be a follower of Christ.

  • Teaching that is biblical and relevant.  This brings the life-changing message of the Gospel out of the dust and into daily life.  All honest questions will be embraced and answered.

  • A biblically functioning, accepting community where people care for people because Jesus first loved them.  Truth will be spoken out of love, not out of a need to condemn or dominate.

  • Opportunities for service and evangelism that allows putting faith into action.

  • A creative, interactive, high-energy children's ministry.  Three questions will guide Children's Church - "Did you have fun?", "What did you learn?" and above all, "Do you know Jesus?"
