On November 24, Pastor Jeff discussed Ecclesiastes 3:12-13 and how it calls us to discover gratitude in the sense of play. Play is woven into the goodness of life throughout the scriptures. Play re-creates us, allowing us to experience the joy and rest God intended and we give into gratitude as a result.

Four Walls of Gratitude Series
The "Four Walls of Gratitude" series delves into how cultivating gratitude can lay a strong foundation across all areas of our lives, whether at work, home, worship, or play. Throughout November, we’ll focus on one "wall" each week, highlighting how gratitude can build a house that brings stability, resilience, and deeper joy to our daily lives. Each week is meant to see how gratitude can ground us, even in challenging circumstances, by focusing on God’s presence and blessings.

Who we are together.
River Corner Church is a growing church community of everyday people who gather to worship God, follow Jesus, and journey through life together.

What we practice together.
Our small church community is uniquely caring, simple, laid-back, and intergenerational. As a church, we want to be a welcoming, safe, and healing community for those who are seeking, hurting, or need a place to belong. Our practices are contemplative (reflective) charismatic (Spirit-driven), conversational, and informative. The times we share together are intentional and intimate, and a mix between modern and traditional. We want to be a place in which love and honor are lived out, where humility is central, and where hospitality is woven into the threads of our community. There is room at the table.

When we gather together.
River Corner Church gathers weekly on Sunday mornings at 10:00 AM to worship and experience God, study the scriptures, journey through life together, and partner with the Holy Spirit. We meet in a simple worship meeting house at 524 River Corner Road in Conestoga, Pennsylvania. You are welcome as you are, just be yourself. There are other times that we hold small groups, events, and more.

Our Pastoral Leader.
As the pastor of River Corner Church, Jeff McLain leads our church community and helps others to think differently about Jesus, life, and everything in-between. Jeff also serves as the Director of Pastoral Ministries at Water Street Mission, where he works with those facing homelessness and poverty. Jeff, Katie, and their three wander-filled daughters look to lead quiet lives. Committed to lifelong learning, Jeff is currently pursuing a Doctor of Ministry at Kairos University and completing a Master of Business Administration with a focus on Executive Leadership at City Vision University. These academic pursuits complement the two masters he completed earlier at Fuller Seminary. Jeff has a passion for baseball, boardwalks, beaches, bays, and books, but above all, his greatest joy lies in spending time with his family and guiding our church community on our journey of faith together.

As we enter, give thanks, and praise, we embody thankfulness, celebrating God's enduring goodness, love, and faithfulness and sustaining unchanging presence.
