Welcome to Riverside Covenant Church

Riverside Covenant Church is a community of people dedicated to becoming more like Jesus, sharing life together, and transforming the world. We believe that God is working in us, among us, and through us . . . and we want you to join us on our journey.

We then worship together at 9:00 a.m. and 10:45 a.m. each Sunday at 1850 Woodland Avenue, West Lafayette, Indiana 47906. The church is visible from the intersection of Salisbury and Lindberg.

Are You New?

I am glad you found our website and hope you are discovering more about us. We are diverse people at various stages in our spiritual journeys who are working together to love God, to love each other, and to love Tippecanoe County and beyond. If you are considering attending our Sunday worship service, I am confident that you will find friendly and authentic people, biblical teaching, and good coffee.

Our goal is to partner with God in planting seeds of faith, cultivating disciples of Jesus Christ, and producing life transformation and community change. Join us as we journey together.

The Book of Jonah

Symposium 2012: The Problem of God

What is God's problem?  Some claim that the Christian can easily deflect criticism by appealing to Jesus' life.  But we cannot evade the Old Testament.  Consider this allegation:“The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully.”  And what about Hell and God not being so obvious to so many people?  Could the Islamic God be the same God as the Bible?  How is the Christian to respond to homosexuality or about the relationship between science and Scripture?  These "problems" and more will be addressed at our annual multi-church, multi-campus ministry, Symposium: The Problem of God, Feb.17-18, held at Purdue and Covenant Church. 

Promiseland Chatter-February 2012

Hi parents, I don’t have much news for you this month except we have had a large number of kidos in Promiseland for the month of January. We are averaging 70 to 80 in the combined hours. So…. if it seems a little hectic down here, it is!!! What a good problem to have. God continues to bless us with more and more children. Our teachers and helpers are great so please pray for them. It is a huge commitment to serve month after month joyfully like they do.

Mark your calendars for February 12 at 5:15 for our Riverside Skate Night. The cost will be $2.50 for skate rental and $3.50 for pizza and a drink. RCC will cover the rink rental again. It is an evening for the whole family and friends to do something fun together.

Prepare Communion Bread

Riverside shares communion together the last Sunday of every month.  Each communion Sunday a Riverside family prepares the communion bread from a recipe we have.  It is a fantastic way for your whole family to participate in preparing for our communion Sundays and we would love to put your family on the schedule.  If you are interested in baking the communion bread one month in 2012, let Pastor Dan (dteefey@rcovenant.org) and he will send you the recipe.
