ANNOUNCEMENTS:

Worship Service Registration

Services on site have resumed, and we are so excited to be back with you! Please go to hittheriver.com, under the events tab, and register for the service you would like to attend. We are offering 2 service times at 9:45 a.m., and 11:15 a.m. If you would rather watch online, both services will be streaming live at facebook.com/hittheriver and on our website at HitTheRiver.com.

Mask Update

At the 11:15 service only, the Elders have decided to make the service masks strongly . This means that just as in restaurants, once you are in your seating area you may remove your mask. It must, however, be used upon entering and exiting your seat location.

Reopening RBK- Toddler and Preschool

RiverBank Kids has reopened the toddler and preschool Sunday School rooms during our 9:45 a.m. worship service. Toddlers are any child 18 months through 2 years of age, and our preschool room will serve our 3, 4, and 5-year-olds. Distance will be in place to the best of our ability, with masks being required for preschoolers and any child in K-5. A detailed reopening plan with more information will be sent out to families the first of the week with more information, but if you have any questions, contact Taylor Starr at taylor@hittheriver.com.

RiverBank Kids- Virtual Sunday School

Did you know? RiverBank Kids offers a virtual Sunday School option for families unable or choose to attend on-campus services at The River. Virtual Sunday School (for kindergarten-5th graders) is hosted on Zoom at 10a.m. every Sunday and is overseen by passionate RBK teachers who love connecting with remote families. The link and password needed to attend virtual Sunday School is sent in the weekly RBK newsletter on Sunday mornings. If you’d like to receive this newsletter, contact Taylor Starr at taylor@hittheriver.com.

RiverBank Kids- 9:45 a.m. service

We have reopened children’s ministry during the 9:45 a.m. service (ONLY). Please consider volunteering to serve in our children’s ministry. Here is what to expect:

· Registration is required, and space is limited. Register your family each week at hittheriver.com
· Check-in your family together for service.
· At check-in, kids are given preprinted name tags and parent tags. Kids will also have their temperature checked.
· Kids will enjoy a socially distanced lesson, craft, and game.
· We will Zoom with families at home during the teaching portion of our time together. The Zoom link will be in your weekly RBKids email. Also, curriculum links will still be emailed to families every Sunday morning at 8:00 a.m., so that kids can enjoy the same lesson content that we will be offering at church.

You’ve Been Egged- RBKids

Easter is right around the corner! The RiverBank Kids team is excited to celebrate with families in a safe, fun, and festive way! On the morning of Saturday, March 27th, volunteers will be creating mini-egg hunts in your very own front yard for your kids to enjoy. More information is available, and sign-ups are open at hittheriver.com/events. If you are interested in serving during this event, contact Taylor at taylor@hittheriver.com.

Making Room for Neighbors

This is a 5-week River Church campaign to connect you with others in and around The River Church. It will be held virtually and is a great way to connect with others. If you would like to lead a small group or get involved with Making Room for Neighbors, signup at hittheriver.com on our main page.

Attention all artists!!!

Do you paint, draw, sculpt or enjoy other forms or artistic expression? We would love to display your spiritually gifted, Holy Spirit inspired art and invite you to...CREATE for Easter. Design artwork around our theme, "How to Live in Victory!" based on John 11:25. Contact Pastor Justin @ justin@hittheriver.com regarding the type of art you are brining and deliver it on Sunday, March 28th.

FREE Digital Bible Study Resources

One of our goals here is to provide everyone who attends The River with discipleship resources, which is why we’re giving all of our attendees access to RightNow Media for FREE! If you have not already signed up, you can easily get access by texting “RightNow HitTheRiver” to 41411.

Cultivating Prayer- Church

Would you please pray this for our children? “Lord, I lift up the children in our congregation to You. May the little ones remain humble examples of what we, adults, need to become in the kingdom.” (Matt. 18:3-4)
