Who We Are | Impact Bible Fellowship

Impacted by God to Make an Impact for God

Welcome to Impact Bible Fellowship, a Christ-centered, Bible-teaching church located in Riverside, California where lives are being changed by the power of God’s Word and the love of His people. We believe that when someone has been impacted by God, they are called to make an impact for God — in their homes, in their church, in their community, and in the world.

We are a church family that gathers to grow in our faith, walk in obedience, serve with joy, and love one another deeply. Whether you're just beginning in your faith or have been walking with Jesus for many years, there’s a place for you here.

We believe God has called every Christian to be a disciple, and every disciple to be a servant.

So we encourage everyone at Impact Bible Fellowship to be a part of what God is doing at our church; as we teach through God’s word, make disciples, regularly pray, and build each other up through fellowship, service opportunities, events, and outreaches. We desire to see God’s kingdom come, and His will be done through evangelism and discipleship. We love our church family.

We want every person to know our Lord Jesus Christ, that He is the Savior of the world to all who turn from their sin, put their faith in Him, and follow Him.

Psalm 34:8 says, “Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him!”

Our prayer is that if you do not have a church home, or you are seeking to know God, that you would find that need met here at our church. Come join us.

God bless you,

Pastor Marty And Lore Hooper
