Children's Missions
Riverchase UMC Children's Missions Ministry hopes to teach the concept and importance of missions so that each child learns that they can personally become missionaries right in their own backyard! We aim to enthusiastically involve children in supporting missionaries and mission work with their prayers, interest, financial giving, and service to others. Read on for ways that you can assist us in these goals.
