Divine Delays: We are working diligently behind the scenes to get the Certificate of Occupancy and coordinate various work teams and projects over the coming months. After evaluating the remaining projects and timelines, we have realized we will not be able to begin meeting on Sundays at the new building by March 2nd as planned. We will continue to communicate our plans as all the behind-the-scenes details fall into place. At this time, we will continue to gather at Roble Rd in Allentown through July. The rest of our ministry (office, small groups, meetings, food pantry) will be done at 81 E North St in Bethlehem. We are anticipating the time when we can gather together in our new church home and are grateful for your continued prayers and collaboration as we make our move to Bethlehem.

On February 23rd, Pastor Joe shared a message entitiled “Our Journey to Bethlehem” which further explains our divine delay and detour. To listen to that message, click HERE. We have also compiled a list of FAQs that you may have. We encourage you to take a look! If you have any questions about our move and this delay, please email Alyssa at alyssa@riverbendonline.org.

Our future home will be at:
81 E North St, Bethlehem PA 18018
