Our church's RiverCross Mission, located at 211 Main Street, serves as the hub for our Community Outreach work. A lot goes on here as together we discover what it means to belong to Christ and know his love. The Mission has a twice-weekly in-person program. Each Tuesday, the Mission serves a hot brunch at 10 AM and a hot lunch each Thursday at 11:30 AM. But the Mission is more than a meal. People experience community there through coffee and friendship, prayer and worship and Bible teaching, and the meeting of basic needs. The North End Food Bank, located at RiverCross Mission, partners with us on Tuesday mornings, creating a friendly, one-stop experience for anyone who shows up.

RiverCross's Community Outreach work also runs additional programs to complement what goes on at the Mission. Moms on a Mission runs monthly or quarterly to provide friendship and support to Moms and other family members who are raising children on their own. The Lunch Hub happens weekly on Thursdays and brings teams of people together to make fifty bag lunches for hungry students at Harbour View High School. Both programs meet at the RiverCross Church site.

Our Community Outreach work is also invested in bringing broader community renewal in Saint John's Old North End and Crescent Valley through a wide range of partnership projects. Our primary partner in all this is the ONE Change, a local coalition of people that has been working together for years now. Through its efforts, there have been improvements in housing, access to health services, and education and training.
