RIVERCITY VINEYARD - WANGANUI
Welcome To
RiverCity Vineyard Christian Fellowship
Wanganui - New Zealand
We are trying to work out what it means to be a genuine
WORSHIPING MISSIONAL COMMUNITY
Our hope is that this site will help you get to know us better and that you would be encouraged to seek hard after the presence of God and his will for YOU:
ISAIAH 61:1-4
The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the Lords favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and to provide for those who greive in Zion - to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord for the display of His splendor. They will rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated; they will renew the ruined cities that have been devastated for generations.
Have you ever wondered…
Why does church seem so boring and repetitive sometimes?
Why is it a struggle to live my entire life as Christ intended?
Even though I attend and serve at a church, why am I still lonely?
Why is so difficult to get people to serve in my church or ministry?
Are people really becoming disciples of Jesus under my leadership?Why do so many Christians and leaders burnout from ministry?
Why does there seem to be so much competition between churches? Aren’t we all supposed to be on the same team?
Am I the only one asking these questions?
Our 4 Blessings - Rochelle, Brooke, Ryan & Jasmine
The point of church is not to collect new people and cage them with church programs,
The goal of church is not to fatten up church members for show.
The church exists to equip people in order to release them back into the world, grounded in truth and community, dangerous for the gospel.
