MISSIONS

Here at Riverview, we believe we have a responsibility to reach beyond our walls and share the love of Christ with the world around us. We do this through our outreach events here locally and through mission trips to serve those beyond our borders.

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” -Matthew 28:19-20

He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation." -Mark 16:15

Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples. -1 Chronicles 16:24

AFRICA

​We have helped support missionary, Alex Mutagubya, since his initial visit to our church years ago with just a vision of a church plant in Uganda. Now with a thriving church, Alex visits about once a year to speak at Riverview, update us on how the work in Uganda is doing, and take a love offering to help support his church. 

​We take a 2-3 week mission trip approximately once a year to Africa to build relationships and, when we can, drill wells to give communities fresh water. Up to this point, we have helped drill 3 wells to provide water for the Kyunkwanzi District near the Congo.

HAITI

​Our church has fostered a relationship with the organization Restore Haiti. Many in our congregation financially sponsor children in Haiti with daily food, fresh drinking water, school, and medical care. 

​We've taken two youth/young adult mission trips to Jacmel, Haiti. Duties have included painting homes, serving meals, distributing hygiene items, hosting youth nights & vacation bible schools at local schools, we had training sessions with youth leaders, hosted a thanksgiving dinner with crafts, food, a puppet show, and more.
