The River - Church in a Barn

About this church

The River, also known as Church in a Barn, meets for its Sunday gathering at 10 a.m. at 2419 US 42 North in Delaware, Ohio. The church says everyone is welcome and invites newcomers to call or text the church office before visiting. Its statement of faith affirms God the Father as Creator, Jesus Christ as Redeemer who died and rose again, and the Holy Spirit, who regenerates believers and gives gifts for the benefit of the church. The Bible is held as the infallible authority on faith and life. Videos and a Facebook page are available for anyone who wants to see the church before attending, and the website carries a calendar and directions page.

Students in grades six through twelve are welcome at The Flood Youth Group, which meets Wednesday evenings at 6 p.m. Women's Bible study meets Mondays at 7 p.m. in a leader's home, with social events such as movie nights, tea parties, and bonfires during the year. The men's group meets Tuesday evenings at 7 p.m. for Bible study, service projects, and leadership training. The church also runs Orphan Outreach, a ministry that raises money for children in countries such as Cambodia, Kenya, Haiti, and India, and it partners with ministries in India that care for orphans, widows, and people affected by leprosy.
