Located in the lobby, our coffee shop proudly  brews all the Starbucks favorites! With specialty breakfast foods, burgers and grilled chicken sandwiches. It’s the perfect place to grab a quick meal before service or hang out with your friends afterwards. Proceeds go toward financing our foreign missions.

OUR VISION FOR CHURCH PLANTING

As a movement, we want to plant churches which exhibit the following traits:

A commitment to worship and serve the Triune God revealed in Jesus Christ
A focus on building communities of faith that worship the Lord in the beauty of His holiness
A desire to grow as Spirit-filled communities that hear - and obey - His voice
A compassion that leads to training and equipping the church community to serve the poor, the lost, and the sick
An outward-focused passion that goes out in the power of the Spirit to do the works of the Kingdom of God, making disciples, planting reproducing churches, and taking the gospel to the nations

Today, Pastor Ruthie River will address the issue of, Evangelism and
Church Development

Our Biblical Vision for Being Missional
Our purpose with respect to ministry is not to super-size but to multiply
Numerous studies have shown that a strategy of growing through multiplication; that is multiple services, sites and congregations, is especially effective at three key purposes:
A. Reaching non-Christians.
B. Developing more people in discipleship and ministry.
C. Enabling the church to retain a sense of community while continually reaching out to new people in obedience to the great commission.
All of this costs money; lots of money.  To make Our Biblical Vision possible, you are called upon to:

Dear Friends,
A Decade of Church growth lies before me and you.  We are going to save the world for Jesus, one home, one neighborhood, one city, one state, one nation at a time.  It will take a lot of time, effort, talent and money.  But, I am confident you are behind me in this effort and up to the task: and that you, along with me, will help raise the $100,000,000.00 we estimate we will need as "seed money" to get the "Church Planting Apprentice," the "Planting Pastor," the "Core Team," the "New Site" and finally "Construction of the New Satellite Church."  (They will always be a part of the RR Ministries) This month, our goal is to raise $10,000,000.00!  You do the arithmetic; that means TEN MONTHS for us just to get started.  Let us begin the journey.  We could paraphrase an old saying this way, "The journey of One hundred million dollars begins with one dollar at at time."  Let us start the journey today that will enable us to, Go out and train everyone you meet, far and near, in this way of life, marking them by baptism in the threefold name: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  (Matthew 27Matthew 28:19)  Give till it hurts and then give some more!

Pope Rusty and Bishop Ruthie

Dear Rusty River Ministries family,

Bishop Ruthie and I would like to thank you for all of your generous giving, your commitment and your selfless sacrifices that have made 2010 such and amazing year. In addition, thank you for staying in faith and believing for God to do great things through the RRM Church!
Because of you, this year we saw over 347,950 people accept Jesus as their Savior in our weekend services. Hundreds of thousands attended our live worship events in the United States and around the world, and we delivered hope to nearly 50,000 people in Dodger stadium and millions more through the live television event. Without a doubt, 2010 was one of the greatest years of ministry that we've ever known.  We know that you will help us far exceed last year's triumph for the Lord!
With just a few weekends left in the year, I would like to ask you, along with the many other families of RRM, to consider a special year-end gift. We have made it through a very challenging year, and nothing would prepare our church more for 2010 than to experience a supernatural outpouring of support.
It is a new season of God’s favor. It is a season to discover and seize God’s increase on our church and on our lives. I am so excited about what is to come here at RRM and around the world as we share the hope of Jesus.
Check below to give a special year-end gift.
Partner with RRM in the work being done throughout the world.  You can be a part of God's work by donating resources to be used to reach others with the message of Jesus Christ.

Thank you so much for being a vital part of the RRM family.
Expecting God to do greater things,
Pope Rusty and BishopRuthie
