No Sunday Services at Queensbridge School or Dame Elizabeth Cadbury School until further notice.

We will be hosting 'live' services online at 10:30am via our YouTube channel. You can invite people along using the link: bit.ly/RiversideChurchOnline

If you would like to contribute to the regular offering you can donate online . 

If you are new and want to connect with us please email info@riverside-church.org.uk or let us know in the online chat alongside the live stream on Sundays.

Although we may need to be physically apart during these times, we want to encourage as much support and mutual encouragement together. As such, we are encouraging our Life groups and Community groups to be really creative in how they support each other, and reach out in love to each other and those in our neighbourhoods.

You can connect via ZOOM video/audio calls

Free Zoom method

1. Invite group members to download the Zoom app (details of how to download the app and use it can be found below).
2. Agree with everyone what time the group will be.
3. You can either send out a meeting link a few days before to each small group or the host can invite each member of their group live, at the time of the call.
4. Finally, hosts should launch their small group Zoom call slightly earlier than the agreed time so that they can prepare (ensure their mic and video is working, get comfy etc) and are ready for when others join the call or need to be invited

How to use the Zoom app

Download the Zoom app via the app store or visit https://zoom.us/

If you are not currently connected to a group and would like to be connected for communication and support, please contact someone from your site leadership team or pastoral staff at Riverside House.

Do be thinking & praying about how your group can make an appropriate difference in the community at this time. How can you be a blessing at this time?
