Hello and welcome to the River of Life Family Fellowship – Townsville page. Their individual lives have been transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit. Their passion and vision is to encourage men, women and children of all ages to experience a personal relationship with God and to have a new way of living. No situation is too difficult to overcome.

the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”
"You are most welcome to join with us in our faith journey. May God richly bless you and we hope to see you soon." - Pastor Bill and Pam Horwood
What We Believe as a Christian Church:
The one true and living God who eternally exists in three persons in unity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The Divine inspiration and authority of the Holy Scripture. The original perfection of creation; the inherent corruptness of humanity through the Fall; the necessity of repentance and regeneration by grace and through faith in Christ alone, and the eternal separation from God of the finally unrepentant. The virgin Birth, sinless life atoning death, triumphant Resurrection, ascension and continuing intercession of our Lord Jesus Christ, His Second Coming, and eternal Kingdom reign. The justification and sanctification of believers through the finished work of Christ, their security as they remain in Him, and their future resurrection in an incorruptible body. The Sacrament of Baptism by immersion, and of the Lord's Supper. The baptism of the Holy Spirit for believers with supernatural signs, empowering the Church for its mission in the world. The gifts of the Holy Spirit for the building up of the Church and ministry to the world. Christ's leadership of the Church through the ascension ministries of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers, for the unity, maturity and growth of the Church. The privilege and responsibility of wise stewardship of all that God has given, including the practice of tithing to the local church. We believe that the covenant of marriage is the union of a man and a woman who have voluntarily entered into a loving, committed and exclusive relationship for as long as both live.
