What are services like?
East River’s vision for worship is a high-energy outpouring that is pleasing to God. We do not create worship. We respond in worship to who God is and what He has given us through Jesus.
Our worship at East River comes from a sincere heart and lines up with the truth in God’s word. We focus on the only thing worthy to be the object of our praise and we worship Him in spirit and in truth!
What is the community like?
At East River, we want to dine with you. We want to serve with you. We want to inspire deeper lives with you and through you! We are a church that moves in the unity, love and sacrifice that is indicative of Christian maturity (Romans 15:1-5). Unity in the affairs of the King, selfless love for one another and in sacrifice that is willing to pay the price to see revival sweep this land.
