Gems Girls Ministry

Our young girl's ministry at The River is called GEMS. If your family has a young girl in it, they won’t want to miss out on this amazing program designed specifically for them.


Maybe you’re wondering why it’s called GEMS. First of all, GEMS reflects the value we place on all girls at The River. GEMS is also an acrostic that stand for Girls Everywhere Meeting the Saviour.
