About Us

Pink Clouds

Our Misson Statement: As a family of faith, we worship the Lord Jesus Christ, by building strong disciples to serve our community and reach people with His good news.

What We Believe
"Jesus is Lord" 

In the Presbyterian Reformed tradition, our authority is the one God in three persons, who is fully and finally revealed in Jesus Christ through the Holy Spirit.

​

The Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are unique and authoritative witnesses to this Triune God. The church in every generation wrestles with God's self-revelation.

 

The church tries its best to respond faithfully, recognizing that its actions and its discernment may at times miss the mark, all the while living and working within the grace of God, trusting, and knowing that, in this mix of ambiguity and freedom, we find the God who promises to be with the church always.

what you 
Can expect...

amazing_grace.jpg

God is a God of grace, and we are committed to being a grace-filled church. From the moment you walk through our doors, we want you to feel at home and comfortable. Friendly greeters are always available at our Welcome Desk or in the Narthex to answer any questions you may have about where to go and when things begin.
 

Our worship service features a blended style that brings together the old and the new. You'll hear traditional hymns, contemporary praise songs, and occasionally even bluegrass-style gospel favorites. We also use multimedia elements, including announcements, music, video,

and sermons, to enhance the worship experience.

What is Sunday morning like?

Our Sunday School for adults and children meets from 9:30 to 10:15 a.m., before the worship service.

(Please note: Children’s Sunday School does not meet during the summer.) 

 

Our worship service takes place from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Children ages 3 through 3rd grade are invited to leave the main service at 10:45 to attend Children’s Church, which runs until 11:30 a.m.

WHAT Should I WEAR?

We are a church where you can "Come as you are."

Whether you're dressed casually or more formally,

we want you to feel comfortable as you worship and fellowship with us. What you wear doesn't matter. We're just glad you're here!

Will I be asked
to give money?

As a visitor, we don't ask that you give. As regular attenders and members, we have the privilege of partnering with God's work in the world by using our gifts and resources through the local church.

What about
my kids?

We’re so glad to welcome families with children to Riverdale!

​

Childcare is provided during worship and most church activities. Our nursery is staffed by a trained nursery worker and assisted by screened volunteers, ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for your little ones. Registration forms are available in the nursery and preschool rooms for your convenience. For safety, we ask that children be dropped off and picked up by a parent or designated adult.

​

During our worship service, children ages 3 through 3rd grade are invited to join us at the front for a brief Children’s Sermon. Afterward, they are dismissed to Children’s Church in the Fellowship Hall, which continues until 11:30 a.m. Children’s Church includes music, a Bible lesson, and often an activity. 

​

Sunday School is offered each Sunday from 9:30 to 10:15 a.m.

for children ages 3 through 12th grade. (Please note: Children’s Sunday School does not meet during the summer.)

​

We also offer monthly programs for kids and youth:

  • Kids Club (Kindergarten through 4th grade)

  • Youth Group (5th through 12th grade)
     

Both groups meet once a month in the Fellowship Hall. In addition, our Youth Fellowship Group participates in retreats, local mission trips, and service projects throughout the year. 
(Kids Club and Youth Group take a break during the summer.)
