Baptisms
Baptism is a powerful outward declaration of the inward change that happens when someone surrenders their life to Jesus. It's a step of faith and obedience that all believers are called to take.
This year, baptisms will be held on April 26/27 after each service.

What to Expect

We’re located at 19900 Grove Community Dr, Riverside, CA 92508. This is in the Orangecrest neighborhood, which is off Trautwein Rd between Alessandro Blvd and Van Buren Blvd.

We have ample parking located on both sides of our campus. If you are attending the 6:30 AM service, you can park near the East Lawn.
-
Our Easter services last around an hour.
-
There’s no specific dress code at The Grove. You’re welcome to dress however you’re most comfortable! You’ll see everything from “Sunday best” to casual among our congregation.
-
For Easter, we will have children’s programming (newborn - 4th Grade) at all our indoor services.
Next to the Worship Center, there are also two rooms for nursing mothers, where you can still view the service.
-
The Grove welcomes all guests, including those assisted by a service dog specifically trained to do work or perform tasks for a person with a disability. Guests with a registered service dog must complete and submit The Grove's service animal registration form 72 hours in advance of attending a service. Our service dog policy can be viewed here.
Guests with a service dog must retain control of their animal at all times and keep their service animal on a leash or harness while visiting. Emotional support animals are not recognized as service animals by The Grove Community Church (and the ADA). We apologize for any inconvenience, but The Grove does not accommodate emotional support animals and pets on our campus.
