A Note from Pastor Jim:
Welcome to Riverside Church, a young church with a fresh approach to growing up in Christ. I’m Jim Carter and it’s my privilege to serve the Riverside Church as pastor. My wife, Marcy and I have come to Central Virginia to love people and assist them in finding God’s purpose and place in His great enterprise. It is our hope that you will be encouraged whether you are alrea
dy a part of Riverside or you are looking for a church to call home. The heart behind our mission is that you will find a church family that welcomes you and is willing to walk with you as you grow and discover your place in God’s family. Please browse our site and learn more about who we are and our ministries and events. Life is complex, if not complicated. We believe church should be pure and simple. It is about considering God’s Word and connecting with God’s people in order to complete God’s purpose in our moment in history….simple, pure and joyful. We offer you a thoughtful approach for considering the truths of God’s Word which is our source for walking with the Lord, and then living out these truths in community as we connect and serve together. We welcome you to worship, consider the Word of God, and connect with us and serve….you’ll find it really easy to call this place home.
