About this church
River Church in Canton calls its Sunday service “the Gathering” to emphasize that church is a people rather than a building or weekly event. The Gathering begins at 10 a.m., bringing people together for worship and encouragement in following Jesus. There is no dress code; guests will see everything from jeans and T-shirts to slacks and button-down shirts. River Kids provides developmentally appropriate care and learning for infants through fifth grade. Its classrooms are intended to be safe, interactive places where children learn about Jesus rather than simply receive entertainment, and the ministry provides resources and encouragement to parents.
The church teaches that every Christian is sent to make disciples and that mission is essential, reaching from the immediate neighborhood to the wider world. Ministry participation is open to the gifts of both women and men within the church's stated convictions. Communion is normally observed on the final Sunday of the month. Fifth Sundays are designated Family Sundays and may include baptisms, Communion, or a congregation-wide event, so the children's pattern may look different on those dates. A discipleship-group form is available online for people seeking relationships beyond Sunday. First-time families should check the calendar when a month has five Sundays and allow time for children's check-in.
