Greetings, Family and Friends!
As we prepare to celebrate our 32nd Church Anniversary Homecoming this Saturday and Sunday, we are excited to share details about two special opportunities taking place during our Multicultural Celebration on Saturday and Homecoming Celebration on Sunday.
Please read carefully and share with your family and friends!

🎟️ RAFFLE — Win a Brand New 65’’ TV!
──────────────────────────────────
Beginning TOMORROW, all guests attending the Multicultural Celebration will have the opportunity to purchase raffle tickets for a chance to win a brand new TV. The winner will be drawn and announced at the close of our 32nd Homecoming Celebration on Sunday!
Raffle Ticket Special:
• $2 per raffle ticket — Buy 5, Get 2 FREE!
The more tickets you purchase, the better your chances! All raffle ticket proceeds support the ministry of The River Church, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Raffle ticket purchases are not tax-deductible as charitable contributions.
⚠️ Raffle Eligibility Notice: To ensure fairness and eliminate any bias, appointed leaders of The River Church are not eligible to participate in the Raffle. We are grateful for our leaders’ servant hearts and their dedication to making this weekend a blessing for everyone!

👥 GUEST CHALLENGE — Gift Card Prizes!
──────────────────────────────────
This is a friendly team competition open to everyone — the more guests your team brings, the bigger the prize!
Each team will be dressed in a unique color so that TRC Leadership can easily identify and count the guests each family brings. Here is how the prizes break down:
• 1st Place — Bring 12 or more guests → Win a $300 Gift Card 🎁
• 2nd Place — Bring 7 to 11 guests → Win a $150 Gift Card 🎁
Bring your friends, neighbors, coworkers, and loved ones — every guest counts toward your team’s total! Guest counts will be tracked by team color throughout the weekend, and winners will be announced at the close of our Homecoming Celebration on Sunday.
Please note: The Guest Challenge and the TV Raffle are two separate competitions. All church members and appointed leaders are eligible to participate in the Guest Challenge!
