Our Denomination
The Christian & Missionary Alliance
RiverLife Church is a member of the North Central District of the Christian and Missionary Alliance (C&MA). We are part of a Christ-centered global movement more than 6 million strong, people who are passionate to bring the good news about Jesus to our neighborhoods and world.
At the core of The Alliance is a deep desire to know Jesus Christ as Savior, Sanctifier, Healer, and Coming King (known collectively as the Fourfold Gospel) and to complete His Great Commission.
Who Is The Alliance?
The Alliance was born out of a heart for lost people. Empowered by His Spirit, our message of Jesus remains unchanged–until all have had heard of His inbounding grace, unrestrained mercy, and unyielding love.
C&MA Origin Story
Alliance founder A.B. Simpson left a lucrative pastorate in New York to start a church in the heart of the city, where all—the immigrants, poor, homeless, sick, and displaced—would be welcome.
