The conception of RLWC dates back to the year 1996, when Pastor David received a
calling from God to be trained in His Word. For the next 7 years, he underwent a
rigorous training with the Daily Word delivered by the Holy Spirit. Soon he set
out to share this Living Word with enthusiastic youth groups and they began to experience
God in their small worlds. As the Lord commissioned Pastor David to "Rebuild His
Temple", he was lead to the city of Vijayawada.
On the 8th of September 2002, River Life Worship Centre commenced with a humble
congregation of 15-20 people in a small seminar hall. Since then, the Lord has been
faithful to send His mighty Word, wrapped in the anointing that liberated lives.
In a short span of time, the ministry activities expanded from cell groups to Wednesday
Spiritual growth Program and the Dunamis Prayer House, which was later converted
to the Friday healing services. Many were drawn to the services to receive the Word
that healed, restored and transformed lives.
We moved to the current location on 14th November 2004 as the congregation began
to expand in numbers. In addition to the regular services, the Lord opened doors
for various annual retreats and conferences like the Family conference, Christian
Medical Conference and the Entrepreneur’s meet. We have also been blessed with a
vivacious children’s ministry that trains young hearts to follow the Lord. With
the Lord’s leading, we have been able to conduct various community outreach programs
like the Dental Camp and the forgiveness project.
RLWC is now a lively group of people passionate about His Living Word. We are driven
by the mission to train disciples for Christ, who would stand up for His cause.
Our vision is to empower the church with the wisdom of God that would be the anchor
in a world of chaos and instability. Running with the purpose of God and lead by
His Anointed Word, RLWC is moving ahead to conquer new Horizons and carry out the
Great Commission.
