About Us

Get to know Deep River Church

Deep River Church of Christ is an Independent Christian Church— part of the Restoration Movement. We teach the Bible; it always comes before man's opinion.

We are an independent Christian Church. We have several requirements for church membership: You must be a believer in Jesus as the only Son of God, be willing to repent of sin and surrender to His lordship, to confess this faith before others, to obey Him in Christian baptism and continue in faithful discipleship.

FAQ

What will happen on my first visit?

You'll be offered a Welcome Bag by one of our established members. Please fill out the "Let's Get Acquainted" card inside and drop it in the offering plate. We won't announce your visit or single you out in any way; it's merely a way of getting to know our guests.

Do you have a children's program?

Yes; our Kingdom Kids program is for children age 2 through 6th grade, and our Rooted Youth Group is for 7th and 8th grade students, both of which meet during our worship time.

Can visitors take communion?

We offer communion to all baptized believers of Christ.

Are visitors expected to put money in the offering plate?

Offering time is for members to show their support of Deep River Church with their tithes. As a visitor, it's up to you: you're welcome to participate in offering time if you wish, but you are not expected to give anything until you feel called by God to contribute.

How should I dress?

Wear whatever makes you feel comfortable and respectable. Some of us like to wear our "Sunday best," and others prefer more casual attire.

What kind of music should I expect?

Our praise team sings a mix of modern praise music and traditional hymns. We are an instrumental church that uses guitars, percussion, and keyboard.
