Join us for worship this Sunday at 10 AM in the auditorium! We will be continuing our new series entitled "In Atlanta As It Is In Heaven". 

This service is mask optional with a mask-only section.

All normal River Kids classes will be provided.

We are inviting the church to participate in a fast from January 9th through the 29th. As we fast, we focus and pray on the following: Your Kingdom come, Your Will be done: In us, in our family group, at North River and in Atlanta.

There are two great service opportunities that HOPE is providing for Martin Luther King, Jr. Day: SUNDAY SUPPERS, and a DONATION DRIVE. Check out these helpful links:

We are having Family Group Leaders/Facilitators meeting On Sunday, January 15th in the FLC. Because the fast that will be going on at that time, we will not be providing lunch. Feel free to bring your own food. 

We are so thankful for all who signed up to serve in the coming year. On Sunday, January 22nd, we are having a training time after church at 12 PM for the various areas of service. The leaders of each area will be contacting the people who signed up for each area with details (time, place, etc.) for the training. 

We are excited to announce our 2023 Mission Trips! We will be facilitating trips to Trinidad and Tobago, France, and Ghana! If you are interested in being part of any of these, please click below to fill out the interest form
