Denomination: Fellowship Baptist
Riverside is a place to connect with God and with others:
To grow stronger through worship,
Grow deeper through discipleship,
Grow warmer through fellowship, and
Grow larger through evangelism.
Our Beliefs
We recognize ourselves as a local body of evangelical Christian believers, united in purpose and love, committed to following Jesus Christ, governed in doctrine and practice by the Bible, meeting regularly for worship, discipleship and fellowship and desirous to incorporate others into a meaningful relationship with God and with ourselves through evangelism. We recognize that we are only one (1) part of the larger body of evangelical Christian believers in our community, our country and around the world and we will seek to honour, respect and encourage them by focusing on our commonness in Christ. We recognize that we live in a free country, Canada, and we will abide by it's laws, foster good citizenship as conscience and Scripture permits.
