In addition to our own church ministries, we support and are involved in a variety of local and international ministries with the ultimate goal of changing the world by showing and sharing the good news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Meet Pastor Veronica –
Pastor Veronica oversees a broad range of Missions, Outreach, and Evangelism teams at River of Life. She has a particular passion to minister to the orphan, the widow, the poor and the marginalized and has done so both locally and in Africa.
She is on the planning team for The Hartford Project – an outreach that brings youth from numerous churches together. Veronica and her team works with several homeless shelters and soup kitchens in the region. She was the founder of “Restoring Hope”, a ministry geared to restoring the men in transitional living at South Park Inn Homeless Shelter and is currently planning another program to provide transitional life services for people who are homeless or could become homeless.

Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will repay him for his deed.
The River’s Outreach and Missions Ministry is made possible through the above-and-beyond offerings of generous givers like you.
By giving directly to the River, you fuel our strategic initiatives to the poor, marginalized, and underserved both locally and globally.
The River of Life is honored to send missionaries and resources to participate in global and local missions – reaching some of the world’s most impoverished communities and helping to transform urban communities right in our own backyard by spreading the Gospel message.

River of Life Church is blessed to partner with several ministries in communities throughout our region and overseas. We provide these ministries support through prayer, volunteerism, resources, and financial assistance.
Jesus came with purpose and continues to work towards God’s purpose from heaven through His communities of followers on earth. Jesus told His disciples to “go and make disciples.” The mission Jesus gave us is to preach the Gospel to everyone we have opportunity and to teach and care for those who respond to His invitation to follow Him in faith. Consider contributing to our cause by making an offering here.
Love A Lot Children’s Home was founded by Pastor Charles & Mary Okang, pastors of The Happy Church in Bloomfield, Connecticut. This children’s home was founded with a vision to care for children abandoned either through the death of their parents or neglect.
A loving home with food and clothing, schooling and a Christian foundation is provided through the support and generosity of volunteers, financial gifts, and donations. Where possible, we help the children find a new family through adoption. When adoption is not possible, a new family and relationship flourishes within the Love A Lot family.
For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.
