Why We Exist

A Beautiful Community


If we had one phrase that best described our church, it would be beautiful community.  God is bringing together an amazing and diverse people from different ethnicities, economic backgrounds and ages.  We believe that in heaven all of God's people will be together and it is our desire that our Sunday gatherings be a reflection of this.     


Mission in our DNA


RiverCross Church has been an integral part of Saint John's  North End for generations.  In 1842 an uptown church on Germain Street decided to plant a new Baptist church in the north end in hopes of reaching out to a new part of the city.  RiverCross has been reaching out ever since. 


In 2013 we underwent a major transition to do a better job of serving our community.  We built a 20,000 sq ft facility on Forbes Drive to help provide better ministry space for children and youth.  We also repurposed our ministry site on Main Street to allow us to better serve the people of the Old North End.  

 

A Growing Community


Our church continues to grow.  Each Sunday we have new people making RiverCross their home.  In spite of our new facilities, we are already experiencing the need for more space.  


 

This is a bit of our story, we are thankful for how God has been at work for so many years.  We are so excited for our future and would love to have you join us as we seek to bring God's blessing to our city.
