The Current that Connects
For 75 years, God has been at work through churches, ministries and people connected by a shared mission. River City Faith Network invites you to join them in remembering their past, reflecting on the present, and reimagining the future! May we continue to connect with God’s kingdom building work in our city.

Building for Hope
Does your church have facility space that’s not being used to its potential? Are you looking for opportunities for congregational renewal and ways to serve and connect with the local community beyond your church building?
Remissioning Church
Many churches are struggling to connect with their communities and are facing decline. But there’s hope! God is inviting His church to be reborn from the inside out, transforming into a new missional presence that brings life and flourishing to their neighborhoods.
