Riviera Presbyterian Church

Welcome to Riviera Presbyterian Church, an inclusive faith community where individual differences are affirmed and celebrated. Our church includes friendly, progressive people of all ages, backgrounds and identities who appreciate a thoughtful and inclusive approach to faith. We are committed to honoring and sustaining families, whether conventionally defined or rethought to meet different needs.

The Counseling Ministry of South Florida has partnered with Riviera to bring mental health and behavioral wellness program to our community. CMSF is an interfaith, nonprofit organization which has a mission is to provide faith-sensitive, professional and affordable mental health counseling, education, and consultation services.

Laurie will be leading study – at lunch time of course! – of Just Eating? Practicing Our Faith at the Table, a program for congregations that explores the relationship between the way we eat and the way we live, published by the Presbyterian Hunger Program. The study uses scripture, prayer and stories from the local and global community to explore five key aspects of our relationship with food.

Please sign up and attend at least one of these gatherings with your pastor Laurie and your family during the season of Lent. Posters and sign up sheets in the back of the Sanctuary or call your host or the church office to sign up. (305) 666-8586.

The evening (or afternoon) will include a brief service of readings and prayers, conversation about “just eating” and our faith… and a simple meal shared among friends. Come and get to know some of your church family a little better.

Intelligent, artistic, creative and thoughtful, challenging and spiritually moving are words used often to describe the worship experience at Riviera. At Sunday morning services, music, prayer, poetry, the bible, and the text of our daily lives are interwoven as we intentionally enter God’s presence through gathering in community, in order that we might be challenged, comforted, enriched and equipped to return to our service in daily tasks and living.
