Are you interested in formally becoming a member of our community?

Whether you've joined officially or not, you are a part of us! Becoming a member means being able to participate FULLY in the life of the church, including but not limited to serving in leadership, voting on the budget and important decisions, and having a deacon walk with you and your family through the ups and downs of life.

We are reminded in the gospels that there were no barriers to Jesus' community of followers. You did not have to fill out a form. You did not have to profess your faith in him. You simply had to give his teachings a chance and open yourself up to transformation. 

Jesus' departing commands to his disciples were to a) teach what he taught and b) to baptize.

Interested in Baptism?
Baptism is an outward acknowledgement of one's inner commitment to transformation that honors the ways and teachings of Jesus. Interested in being baptized and becoming a part of the movement for liberation? Email Rev. Mia at pastor@riversidedc.org

She will guide you through what that public act can mean for your personal transformation.

MEMBERSHIP SUNDAY
We will formally welcome new members into the life of our church on Sunday, September 24th immediately following worship service. You may come by a) Christian Experience, b) Letter of Transfer (from a previous congregation), or c) Baptism.
