Mission
Riverdale Church supports a wide variety of local, national, and international mission organizations. Our mission efforts fall into several basic areas. Annual mission giving, special offerings, mission activities and youth activities. Thank you to members of the Mission Ministry Team, currently chaired by Bill Cammack and Jackee Clark for all of their efforts. If you have any ideas or suggestions concerning our Mission giving, please contact Bill.
Update: RPC will cook and serve Palm Sunday dinner, April 1 to University Christian Ministry students at University of Maryland in the evening. Watch for updates on the 'Happenings' page!

Special Mission Support
Offerings have been used to support the victims of hurricanes to the south. We have also raised funds to establish a Refugee Relief Fund to assist families of our Church - who are new to us, and our nation - settle into our community. We have two families of our Church who are in America having been granted political asylum. In 2010 we supported our own Tim Young as he spent the summer serving with Global Storm www.globalstorm.org in Cambodia.
