About Us

Who we are, and what to expect when you join us.

Come for a season, stay for the people

Riverbend is the sort of church where someone will learn your name before they learn your story. We eat together often, argue kindly, and try to be useful to the neighbourhood we sit in.

There is no expectation that you arrive sorted. Plenty of us are still working things out, and the ones who look most settled usually have the longest story.
