Riverside United Methodist Church

This church has been here since I can remember growing up bc I used to live just across the street. Yes it’s unbelievable!!!
The last time I actually walked into the church was nearly ten years ago for my older brother’s funeral service. He had two separate services due to a family at odds with each other. The service itself was actually quite decent. It was rough bc my brother died at age 67 and so suddenly that it shocked most of us. I’m sure I have a family member or two who were thrilled at his passing but I was pretty distraught.
This church has brought back many memories for me as I had attended it when I was in elementary school pretty religiously for several years straight. The church itself has a good sized field across from the home I used to live in that kids used to play baseball on that field. Several times that ball had broken the huge front window of our home that my dad had to get it replaced!
I believe that someone had cased our house there in the church as we had gotten robbed from the time all three of us had left separately to the time the first person set foot back into the house. Sometime shortly after that my dad had rod iron gates placed on all the windows and doors.
Now that field is surrounded by gates which is a really good idea. I’m sure people used to walk their dogs in that field & not pick up after their dogs. Messy messy messy!
The church itself looks well kept now repainted with decent colors. I have seen people performing tai chi on Saturdays but not so sure exactly what time. If you’re really interested in the church. Check it out for yourself. You might be pleasantly surprised.
I’m sure we will be back sometime.

Nice Pool Table.
