"Diving In" Service

This Sunday! January 29th, 2012

Please note: Although this Sunday is different than a regular service, even if you are a visitor, feel free to dress warm and join us!

Every time that there is a fifth Sunday in the month (about once a quarter) the church trades in our traditional worship service for a day of community outreach. During this time we will have a variety of service options for everyone to choose from. If you have any ideas for projects that you would like to see us take part in please email Brendon Hollingsworth at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Additionally, as we lead up to the event, The River will be doing a churchwide fast starting on Thursday, January 26th through the morning of the 29th. We will be breaking our fast together at 9am on Sunday morning at the Embassy Cinemas. The service activities will begin at 10am.

World Mandate East 2012

February 3-5, 2012

Every year we have the tremendous joy and privilege of coming together with The Harbor (Beverly, MA) and CFCF (Boston, MA ) to celebrate the greatness of our God and listen intently for Him to speak the truth of His mission and His purpose as it relates to our lives. This year’s three day conference is from February 3-5 and will be held at Bentley University right here in Waltham. Online registration is at a discounted rate and has already begun at www.cfcfboston.org/worldmandate. As a body of believers, we would love to extend an invite to those that are outside of our movement of churches as well. If you have any contact information for those people, ministries or churches that you might want to invite please email Sandra Asermelly at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

"Take A Seat" Campaign

Buy a Chair Now

As we make a strong final push towards getting in the building, we are encouraged to see how much God has already done. In furnishing the auditorium we are excited to give you the opportunity to purchase your own chair as well as one for a visitor. As we finalize the details we will be able to give you an exact estimate on how much each seat will cost, but for now if you are interested in The River's "Take A Seat" campaign please email Johnny Ames at  This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

More details are to come, again email Johnny if you have a desire to invest in this part of The River Church's push to get in the building.
