WHO WE ARE | OUR VISION & VALUES

Riverside Vineyard is a Christian Church, made up of people from diverse backgrounds,
committed to following Jesus and bringing His life into our communities.

We are part of a growing movement of a hundred Vineyard Churches in the UK & Ireland, and 2,500 across six continents. Vineyard Churches exist to extend God’s Kingdom together, everywhere in every way.

WORSHIP GOD

We’re a people who are saying yes to Jesus and to finding a fullness of life in His presence. We dream that all in our communities would know that God loves them. We dream of communities being transformed and given hope, one life at a time.

LOVE OTHERS

We’re committed to expressing God’s love to those around us, with compassion and generosity. This is something we can all be a part of - everyone, everyday, everywhere.

BE JESUS IN THE WORLD

We celebrate together as a church full of diversity, starting all we do in His presence, sharing life with one another, and stepping into God’s future.
