Spiritual Growth

Grow With Us

Wednesday School 2025

Wednesday School is our version of midweek spiritual growth. Think "Sunday School" but on Wednesdays! We offer various courses throughout the year ranging from 2-5 weeks. Most of our Wednesday School offering are virtual via Zoom. See what's coming up, save the date, and plug in!


Morning Mindfulness- Tuesdays in August


Join us for new summer hours and start your Tuesdays in August with Rev. Mia on Instagram Live @miashellymac!

This is an opportunity to breathe, to be in virtual community, and to hear a short lesson from Pastor Mia. Can't wake up by 7am? No worries! Pastor Mia leaves the recording up for 24 hours. Catch it at noon. Catch it a night. And be sure to share if something inspires you.


What's the Tea - September 7

Join us on Sunday September 7th after worship for tea, coffee, and conversation with the pastor as we celebrate 3 years of Rev. Mia at Riverside. Bring your questions about the sermons, the vision of Riverside DC, the Bible, the pastor's daily/weekly rhythm and beyond!


Wednesday School- Practicing Hope

What is hope in the face of neofascism? What is hope in a time of genocide? How does Christ teach us to embody hope when our backs are against the wall?

These are the questions Practicing Hope asks. Led by Rev. Mia, with curriculum from Rev. Tabatha Holley, this study encourages communities to cultivate hope that is honest about our current conditions (refugia), hope that is restorative when everything feels urgent (rest), and hope that is possible even when we transgress (repair).

Join Rev. Mia on Wednesdays at 7:00 pm, starting September 10th until October 29th. Zoom registration is required.
