… And here's what's happening across Riverside...

THE KINGDOM IS ADVANCING! | SATURDAY 18 OCTOBER, 11AM-4PM, STRATFORD

We live in exciting times. The Lord is on the move. Lives are changing. Jesus is building His church. The Kingdom is advancing! So let's gather, as Vineyard people in the London & South East, to worship, be encouraged & empowered by the Spirit, minister to each other, pray, and lean in to what the Lord is doing. A hog roast lunch is provided as part of the day! Details & booking HERE

KINGDOM COME PRAYER - WALTON PRAYER WALK | MONDAY 7 JULY, 7:30PM

As we continue to partner with what the Lord is already doing, we are going to prayer walk around Walton on Thames in July & August before gathering inside for Prayer & Worship from September. These will be monthly gatherings during our monthly Small Group pause. This time we'll meet outside the Greggs in the Heart Shopping Centre, pray for some of the local churches and gather in a pub afterwards.

STAINES-UPON-THAMES DAY | SUNDAY 29 JUNE 11AM-5PM

Staines-Upon-Thames Day is an annual event where local organisations can showcase what they do and interact with the public. This year as a church we are taking part! We have booked a stall in the memorial gardens and we will have free drinks and activities to share God's love and introduce them to our church. Plus a busking slot on the High Street to sing some worship at 12:20pm. Come and join us!

NEW TRUSTEE

We're delighted that Martin Chivers is joining the trustee team! Please pray for him and the trustees in the vital role they play in the life of the church.

MARRIAGE EVENT: ONLINE - COMMIT | WEDNESDAY 9 JULY, 7:30PM

Are you in it for the long haul? Hopefully the answer is "absolutely for sure".  Join us from the comfort of your home and pick up some tips on how to achieve a lasting marriage.
