Ministries
A Heart for Riverdale
First Baptist Riverdale shows love for the people of Riverdale in many ways. For example, we partner with local apartment complexes to bring free food trucks to these communities. We have block parties at Riverdale Regional Park. The church also provides meeting space for Narcotics Anonymous, Alcoholics Anonymous, and other community groups. We have a heart for Riverdale!
A Heart for Missions
The members and friends of First Baptist Riverdale express their love for God by being involved in many local and national mission projects. Projects have included collecting school supplies for local children; coats for a mission center in Kentucky; supporting Calvary Refuge Shelter in Forest Park; providing Christmas food baskets for needy families; and supporting children through Angel Tree, a ministry of Operation Prison Fellowship.
A Heart for Seniors
Senior adults play an important part in the life of the First Baptist Riverdale. Seniors are active in every part of the church’s ministries, from Sunday School to the missions organizations. Our “Seniors Only” group, the LLL Club (Living Long and Loving It!) is a wonderful opportunity for senior men and women to enjoy connecting with other seniors.
A Heart for Children & Youth
We have a special love for children and young people and show our love by seeking to become more actively involved in our local schools and neighborhoods. On Sundays we offer a nursery for babies and toddlers, a Bible class for pre-school and a children and youth class.
