Ministries

The love of God in Action.

MEN AT THE RIVER

Men at the River is a ministry dedicated to equipping men become all that God created them to be.  Through weekly bible study/fellowship and other scheduled events, men are given resources that will help them grow and develop Godly character, build relationships, and become better husbands, fathers, and influencers in their church, and in the their communities.  Men’s Bible Study/Fellowship meets on Mondays from 6:30-8:00pm at the church.

We Rise Women's Ministry (Luke 4:32)

WE Rise is a ministry to women, by women, and for women. (WE) Women Empowered by God, RISE. Often times, women are so busy taking care of others, that they neglect themselves and their relationship with God. There are too many Martha’s and not enough Mary’s. WE Rise is about women choosing to pull aside from all of the busy-ness, and sit at the feet of Jesus, to be empowered by the Word of God.

Young Adults Ministry

Men and Women (Ages 18-35)

Every Wednesday night our young adults gather together, to grow in their relationship with God, to find belonging in a Christ-centered community, and to be discipled and mentored.  This is a time of bible study, prayer, and a time to share real life issues, while having fun and building Godly relationships.

Remarkable

REMARKABLE is a young adult ministry for women ages 18-35. It’s a place where we meet God, ourselves and others, to tap into our true God-given identity. We all get REdos with Jesus Christ. We are all MARKed with a purpose. We are all ABLE to reach that mark. You put that together and you get RE-MARK-ABLE!  We meet every 3rd Tuesday of the month for bible study/fellowship.  There are other events and activities scheduled throughout the year. 

Impact Youth Ministry (1 Tim. 4:12)

(Grades 7th-12th)

God doesn’t want our youth despised and neglected, but rather He wants us to teach, train and equip them to be examples as believers in Christ. Teens will grow and develop in their relationship with Jesus, so that they will set the trend, rather than follow today’s culture.  Our heart is to help teens with the many challenges they face today. Through biblical age-appropriate teaching, they will develop their relationship with God and with other Christians their age.  There are a variety of fun-filled events and activities scheduled throughout the year.  Impact youth meets every Sunday from 6:00pm-8:00pm at the church.

Kingdom Kids (Mark 10:14)

Our goal in Kingdom Kids is to create an atmosphere of warmth, love and excitement for children. Our teachers are well trained and equipped to instruct children at their respective age levels and guide them into a deeper relationship with God.

Action Outreach Ministry (Mark 16:15)

Our Outreach Ministry is literally the love of God in ACTION.  Through events like the Great Turkey Giveaway, Winter Coat Drive, Operation Santa, Bounce Back to School outreach, One Item outreach, and Sowing Seeds ministry, we are providing resources to those who are in need. ACTION Outreach also serves local shelters and the homeless in our community.  We want to be the hands and feet of Jesus, bringing hope and healing to others.

PRAYER MINISTRY (1 Tim. 2:1)

When people pray, things happen!  The scripture states that the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous person, makes tremendous power available.  A praying church is an effective church, and a powerful church.  We have a growing and dynamic prayer ministry that consists of an intercessory prayer team, a prophetic prayer team, and a prayer school.  If you are in need of prayer, and would like our intercessory prayer team to pray for you, please call the church office at 517-889-5453.  To increase your knowledge of prayer, and learn how to pray more effectively, attend our prayer school on Tuesdays at 6:00pm, at the church.  It’s powerful!

Sowing Seeds Ministry (Acts 20:35)

Sowing seeds is an outreach to assist the elderly, the handicapped, and the needy, with yard clean-up. We mow, trim bushes and trees, edge lawns and do some planting and landscaping. The services are free of charge and we do not ask for donations; we simply want to be a blessing and show the love of Jesus. Visit us on Facebook at Sowing Seeds Ministry – Rivers of Life Church.
