River City Baptist Church

Love my church pastor Simms and every sermon has a beautiful meaning I'm so proud to be part of river city Baptist church

I had the opportunity to go to one of the Community Conversation that our newly elected mayor has been visiting each of the city council districts in our city and the one for Arlington was about maybe 2 weeks ago and it was to be at River City Baptist Church on Merrill Road and I went after I got off from work and I don't really go to meetings with our elected officials, but since I work so closely by, it might be interesting to hear about what is said and discussed. River City Baptist Church has a very big sanctuary and it was standing room only for this meeting. Lots of topics were discussed and it was about an hour and a half and we had the opportunity to meet the pastor of River City Baptist Church and the meeting was opened up with prayer and after the events happening this weekend as our community leaders need to be prayed for every day they serve their constituents for our safety and theirs as well. Our world is not as safe as we believe, so we must be aware of our surroundings.

My good friend Stephanie and my Aunt Carolyn talked me into attending here and let me just tell you. If you like a powerful message that cuts through all of the static and hits you right in the chest this is the place to be on Sunday mornings. This fellow that they have preaching is the most powerful and dynamic speaker I have ever heard and this is coming from somebody that had all but written off Church completely for a many years. However after attending just one time I know now that there are still good people left in the world in particular in Jacksonville and this preacher and the church is one of those places and those people. I highly recommend you attend and at least try it out, at least once, even if you never come back again you will remember the one time you did attend... that is for sure.
