come see what our virtual community is all about
It's tough to find the right faith community. It's even tougher when you can't meet in person.
We think you'll find that The River is different. Although we aren't meeting as a church, we're still doing community. Whether it's viewing parties or one-on-one meet-ups with our pastoral staff, The River is all about connecting with you and helping you connect with God -- and with each other.

As a non-denominational, LGBTQ-inclusive church, our goal is to be a place where faith and community continually intertwine in delightful ways. We want to help you experience God's goodness in your personal life today. Everything in our church is geared to create a dynamic space where people of any and every background can grow in their own personal connection with the living God, with others, with the world around us, and even with themselves.

Service Is Open to People of All Faiths
We strive to be a Jesus-centered church that welcomes all faiths in Manhattan. Whether you are an evangelical, mainline Protestant, Catholic, Muslim, Jewish, Buddhist, atheist, or from another faith background, you are welcome here! We believe our diversity makes us stronger. We want everyone who walks through the doors to feel a sense of peace and belonging.
You Are Welcome
Every service includes some lively music and a thought-provoking message you can apply to your daily life. Although we don't shy away from controversial issues — and in fact approach them with intellectual rigor — we firmly believe that God's love is for everyone. And we put that into practice with our desire to welcome everyone through the church's (virtual) doors.
