Riverside, Coppell, Texas
Riverside is one of the two anchor churches of Mission Alive and is our home church. They partner with us in our ministry both by supporting Mission Alive and by providing their facility for church planter equipping labs (Discovery, Theology, and Strategy Labs). Our Bible class and Impact Group have ministered to us during times of sorrow and joined us on our spiritual journey to grow as His disciples. When we are in town, the preaching of Jarrod Robinson lifts our souls. Riverside member Lisa Gould has worked untiringly in mobilizing our members to feed church planters undergoing training at our facility. I am honored to work with elders and staff in their developing awareness of and commitment to missional renewal and transformation. One elder, Dr. John Cooke, has worked with as the Director of Assessment in our Discovery Labs for church planters and joined us half-time in January, 2007, as the Director of Church Planter Care. Another elder, Tony Chron, serves on the Mission Alive board and provides insight about administering a growing organization. We are grateful that the Lord has placed us in this wonderful family of God!
