The River of Life Sports Ministry offers a wide range of activities to suit most anyone.  The objective is to bring together individuals for recreation and exercise in an atmosphere of mutual interest in order to create opportunities to fellowship.  Each of the ministries are geared to provide an opportunity to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ as we honor God by reaching out with the love of Jesus Christ and proclaim Him as Lord to the world.  It is our hope, that within the familiarity of the sports environment, seekers will feel begin to ask their spiritual questions which will lead to personal growth and discipleship.
