Our Mission
The Riverview Missionary Baptist Church (RMBC) is a Word-centered ministry, designed to evangelize the lost, equip and empower the people of God, and provide holistic ministry to our community as well as the world. Our mission is to “turn the world upside down by spreading the love of Jesus Christ”.
Committed to the spirit of excellence, we are striving to become an oasis of hope within the Lenoir City community, by promoting and providing education, awareness, as well as financial independence.
Our foundation is the Word of God and we believe It in Its entirety. We believe we can do what It says we can do, be who It says we can be, and have what It says we can have.
History in the Making
Riverview Missionary Baptist Church (RMBC) was initially built by the county for use as a school for Hensley Chapel. A member and Mother of Riverview, Mother Anna White was the first teacher in this building; and we still have her first teacher’s desk. In 1930, the school stopped using the building and it became the Riverview Baptist Church. The idea for this name was derived from the sight of the beautiful Tennessee River....In a few short years will be officially considered a historical landmark.
