Hollybrook Community Involvement
River City Church is very involved with the North Riverside community of Hollybrook here in Jacksonville, and we have the privilege of coming alongside these families in several ways.
Hollybrook Share Shop
The Share Shop is a place where volunteers from River City Church and Hollybrook work together receiving donations of clothing, toys, furniture, and other items and then giving these items at no cost to families who are in need of them. The Share Shop helps Hollybrook families meet some of their household needs while also developing and strengthening relationships among our families as we help each other.
Hollybrook Ministries and Events
River City Church also organizes and coordinates ministries within the Hollybrook community that specifically focus on children: a twice-weekly tutoring program, a weekly dance class, and guitar and singing lessons. We have also had several events at Hollybrook including a Back-to-School Party, a Christmas Party, an Easter Egg Hunt, and Vacation Bible School. Among our favorite times are Saturday afternoons, when we play with the kids, talk to the parents, and get to know entire families. It's an awesome community where God continues to stretch and teach us about His Love!
Hollybrook Movie Night
We also periodically host a free Movie Night on-site at Hollybrook. We project a family-friendly movie on the big screen and enjoy popcorn and family fun under the stars.
If you would like to get involved with any of these outreach opportunities, e-mail or call Craig at the church office: 904.388.4240.
