River of Life Christian Fellowship, East Bay is a community of believers worshipping, serving and growing together as citizens of God’s kingdom. We are committed to:
- studying the Word of God and faithfully living it out.
- being the Body of Christ in spirit, word, and deed.
- the mission that Jesus Christ gave every believer: to make disciples of all nations.
We seek to love and serve all people, beginning with those within our sphere of activity and influence.
As a body of believers, we embrace these core biblical values:
- The Lordship of Jesus Christ. There is one Lord, God’s Son, Jesus Christ, over the church, so Christ is the church’s ultimate authority in all things.
- The Great Commission. Each of us is called to fulfill Matthew 28:18–20, making fully devoted followers of Christ—disciples—who will then teach others to follow him.
- The Great Commandments. We are called to fulfill Matthew 22:37–39, not only loving God with our entire being, but also loving all that he loves.
- The Holy Spirit’s Work. God’s Spirit equips believers with unique gifts that enable us to carry out the mission of Christ in the world. At the same time, the Spirit produces love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control in every believer (Galatians 5:22–23), which demonstrate the Spirit’s presence within us.
- Stewardship. All of life is to be used for the honor, glory, and service of God.
River of Life Christian Fellowship, East Bay is an affiliate congregation of the Church of God Ministries, Anderson, Indiana.
