Our Vision

Our Vision

Vision means ‘to see’ and this is what we see when we look at our church and ministry:

Our church is passionate about Jesus and the advancement of His Kingdom.

Our church equips people in the Word, empowers them in the Spirit and releases them into their God given purposes and destinies. A church that enables all to overcome personal obstacles and limitations and live life on the highest level possible.

Our church is socially significant, culturally relevant, spiritually vibrant and evangelistically potent; our highest priority is to take the transforming power of the Gospel to a lost and dying world.

Our church is full of life which is expressed through, love, peace and joy to the hurting and broken, welcoming them into our family where this house becomes their home.

Our church is the solution to the world’s troubles; bringing the presence and awareness of God back to the centre of our city and nation by all means possible, through ever-increasing influence, making us significant and relevant.

Our church is fun, dynamic, exciting, successful and not religious. A church that is both large in number and great in spiritual stature. A prosperous church by virtue of its giving nature.

Our church is the salt and the light in the worlds of arts and entertainment, economics, education, family, politics and spirituality.

Our church will rock your world.

We will do this by:
Loving God Passionately.
Building Church Devotedly.
Growing In Christ Powerfully.
Serving People Unconditionally.
Living Life Purposefully.

At The River we love…

…to praise and worship God.
…to give our time, talent, treasure and tongue to Him.
…the uncompromised Word.
…the experiential move of God in Pentecostal power.
…all people.

This we do when we are gathered corporately as the church and scattered in our individual worlds where we do life.
