WEEKLY SMALL GROUPS

*Note: Riviera’s Small Groups typically break for the Summer and will restart in late August. Some groups do continue to meet. Don't hesitate to contact the Church office to check which groups are meeting during the summer.

We believe an important step in growing as a follower of Christ is to participate in a small group.  In these groups, we pray for each other, share our lives, and learn more about God through Bible study.  Below are the adult classes currently offered.  Our Small groups typically run through the school year and take off for the summer, but some are year-round.  Contact Riviera UMC for questions about small groups.
