Our Mission - To love people through the power of the Holy Spirit!

At the River at Portland we encourage you to go deep into your relationship with God. To grow spiritually and expand your knowledge of the Bible and the promises that it holds for every believer. Pastor Mays brings a message that is Spirit led and quite often just what you need, when you needed it. He has said quite often, that God loves you so much, that He would have a message given specifically just for one person…

If you have ever felt that there is more to life than just getting by. That somehow, someway there has to be more than this…..then you are correct. God made you for a purpose and a special design. You are more precious than you can imagine, in fact, you are so precious that God gave His only begotten Son to die for your sins! Jesus paid the ultimate price so that thru Him, you can a life here on earth that is fulfilling and meaningful. The Bible tells us that the same power that raised Jesus from the dead 3 days after He was crucified, lives in all who are born again believers. We know that with the help of the Holy Spirit, we can live a victorious life and while things are going on in the world, that we are not of the world! It is no coincidence that you are reading this. God has a plan for each and everyone of us. We invite you to come join us for a service, talk with our folks and see what God has in store for you!
