We’re so excited to be meeting in person once again. Due to COVID-19 Safety restrictions, we need to register people coming to the service to ensure compliance with government requirements. Please take the time to register for the service. See the link below to be able to register for our services.
We will be holding our regular services onsite each Sunday at 9am and 5pm until further notice.
Each service can only accommodate a limited number of people due to safe distancing requirements. You MUST book online each week to reserve a seat for each member of your family (see below).
See the Seating Plan for the Riverlife Auditorium, so you can find the best section to sit.
We ask that you vacate the building by 11:15am after the 9am service and 7.15pm after the 5pm service.
We will still be live streaming the 9am church service so you can continue to watch online if you would like to remain at home or your preferred service time is booked out. You can join us online for the 9am service here: http://riverlife.online.church
Kids Church will be offered for children aged 3+ at the 9am service only as per a usual age-based split. You will be required to book your children in for these programs each week if they would like to attend. Grade 6 children who are already enrolled in Foundations do not need to re-register; however, they are unable to enter the auditorium during the 9am service. If you are bringing a child under 3 years, you must register them for a ‘child-on- lap’ seating option in the Auditorium.
Youth Church will be offered for children in grades 7-12 at the 9am service only and you will need to register your child.
Registration for services will be open from 5pm Monday to midnight Thursday each week by logging on to our registration portal (instructions and link will be emailed every Monday afternoon). You may select the section of the auditorium you would like to sit in, but Riverlife will allocate you a specific seat each week within your selected section. You will receive an email prior to Sunday each week advising you of your particular seat numbers. Please bring this to the service on Sunday to show the ushers upon entry.
If you are having difficulties navigating the registration platform, please phone the church office on 3378 3595 and we will guide you through the process.
You can download the Church Centre mobile app from your App Store. Visit the Google Play App Store or the Apple App Store for links to the App. Once you register using the email address we have on file, this will connect to your church database profile. You can then click on the Events tab and register for the Sunday services available.
Family groups who reserve seats in the same reservation will be seated together, but individuals and family units will be seated 1.5m apart from the next group. See the Seating Plan for the Riverlife Auditorium, so you can find the best section to sit.
Doors will be open 15mins prior to each service and ushers will show you to your seat. Please be patient and kind with our ushers!
Because we are only able to offer our comprehensive kids and youth church program at the 9am service, if you do not require these services, we ask that you consider registering for the 5pm service instead to free up space for families that are able to engage with these programs.
If you need to cancel your booking, we ask that you notify us as soon as you know via church@riverlifechurch.org.au so we can reassign your seat to someone else. You can also log in to the booking platform and delete or alter your registration.
Our cafe will remain closed at the moment until we navigate COVIDSafe food restrictions. We ask that you refrain from bringing your own food at this time. Bottled water will be allowed.
Our teams will undertake a strict cleaning protocol both during and in between each service. Hand sanitiser stations will be available throughout the building and we ask that you maintain 1.5m from each other at all times. Our Host, Kids Church and Worship teams will be rotated where possible between services to ensure we minimise the risk of cross-contamination.
If you are feeling unwell or displaying any flu-like symptoms, please do not attend church onsite, but continue to make use of our online live stream via http://riverlife.online.church
