All of the options above are applicable, as well as those below. You can review them below and let us know you'd like to help.

Our prayer team will be meeting on Sunday Mornings at different locations around the city of Elkhart to pray over our congregation and our city. If you would like to join this team sign up below!
Transportation Team
Since our campus is mobile, we need to move everything from our Goshen Campus to our Elkhart Campus on Sunday mornings. Those interested in serving with the transportation team much have a truck with at least a 250 hitch to haul trailers to and from our locations.
Set Up/Tear Down
Our Elkhart Campus is completely mobile which means that every Sunday we have to set up our lobby, cafe, kids areas, and worship center. As part of the set up and tear down team, you would help give a welcoming experience to all of our first time guests and regular attenders by setting up all of the community and connection areas they've come to expect at River Oaks. You'll also be able to love our neighbors at Elkhart Schools by leaving our space cleaner than we found it.
