Men's Ministry
We are all about the Father’s business through missions, discipleship, worship and work. Bearing one another’s burdens; so fulfilling “The Law of Christ.” (Galatians 6:2)
Over the last several years we have done multiple projects including ramp building & home repairs. We have teamed up with the HBA (Haywood Baptist Association) to reach out to the people of Haywood County who are in need. Most Tuesday mornings, you can usually find us working on a ramp somewhere. In 2019, we built 38 ramps for members of the community and county. We can always use some more willing volunteers, so come join us!
We also enjoy fellowship at our Men’s Meals, where we usually have special guest speakers.
Women's Ministry
The Riverside Women’s Ministry is active and growing. Our goal today is the same as when we started, to nourish and develop the women of our church to be strong servants of God through several avenues. Our gatherings often consist of craft nights, ministry fellowship, and special occasions such as a ladies’ tea.
We also attend conferences and have gone on several weekend retreats. We are always looking for ways to encourage women as wives, mothers, daughters, friends and as God-fearing saints of God!
"Just Jesus" Student Ministry
Riverside student ministries is raising up the next generation of Christian leaders that are going to change the world. We strive to make this a place where the students can connect with God, each other and with the non-Christians of the world.
Riverside Outreach Ministry
Our mission is to reach the community and beyond for Christ.
- 18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
- 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
- 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
We meet weekly to visit the sick, reach the unchurched, and show God’s love to everyone, thus fulfilling the Great Commission. Our goal is to spread the gospel and share our greatest hope – our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
JOY Group (age 55 and up)
The JOY Group (Just Older Youth) is a group who serves God as those who are a little older, but still young at heart.
We have been on trips to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Fontana Lake, and the NC Arboretum. We go to Strawberry Hill in early spring, travel to eat at the Farmer’s Daughter restaurant, and have cookouts and covered dish lunches.
At Christmas, we have a special meal, and on the first Sunday of May we celebrate Senior Adult Day with a catered meal.
Yes, we love to eat and fellowship, but we have also made items for shut-ins and made knitted or crocheted items to donate to Operation Christmas Child.
