"I learned about how much Jesus dying for us really mattered. Before, I didn't know how much it meant. I also learned to accept outsiders or new people."
— Camper
Why come to Riverside?
Jesus.
"It's all about Jesus!" At Riverside, we believe that Christ is central to EVERY aspect of life, which is why our mission is to "To know Jesus Christ and to make Christ known to all." We think God has uniquely set apart Riverside for Himself and all who desire a deeper relationship with Him.
Beauty.
140 acres of it, to be exact! We believe God has given us a beautiful world to live in, and we love to explore it through hiking or horseback riding our on-site trails, or canoeing down the local South Skunk River. God's creation is one of several ways which people can experience Him here at Riverside!
People.
We believe God created us for loving, interdependent relationships with one another! Come and connect with our staff, enjoy renting our spaces for life-changing community and church retreats, or just come to see what makes Riverside such a special community to grow with in your relationship with God!
