Riverside Christian Family - "loving Jesus Christ and showing him to others"


Find out more about the Pastor and His family.
Wendy & I were married on 8 March, 1997, and have lived in Rasmussen, Townsville/Thuringowa ever since. We have 3 wonderful children...........

The nature of what we do stems from the fact that our heart desire is to serve God & serve others. We would never be able to count the hours hundreds of people have put in over the years in making things work, getting things done, and doing so with not just the skills, but the heart that does things not for recognition - but rather because it makes a difference.
Our volunteers make significant impacts every day, in all that they do. We are in fact primarily a group of volunteers, but even more than that, we are a family. A family does things for each other, a family does things together, a family backs up and resources those closest to them. A family grows together, rejoices together, cries together, shares the wins together, shares in the losses together.
The contacts on the adjacent screen are people who lead groups of volunteers and are volunteers themselves. Our Pastor is supported by our church to conduct full-time ministry & service to our church and community.

Q & A Profile |

Roslyn Termine

- What do you get passionate about?
I am passionate about equality, justice & freedom; people being set free from oppression - the natural and spiritual.
- What do you think people like about Riverside Christian Family Church?
The casualness and the freedom to be yourself, to speak up without being judged. And we have heaps of fun, ice coffee/chocolate, games that include CHOCOLATE.
- What is your favourite food & favourite movie?
My favourite food is usually lasagne with eggplant (my mum makes the best lasagne), but after dining at Hobbos Hut recently I can really recommend the baked Red Emperor/Coral Trout with scallops, fresh asparagus and hollondaise sauce (drool.) My favourite movie I think would have to be Shrek - the gentle giant and his onion layers, donkey and his need to please and be liked, Fiona with a split personality (hormones?), the king that has issues with his image. It's all good fun.
- What do you like to do in your spare time?
What is that? I like to read and if I'm inspired I am known to write a bit of poetry.
- If you could have 10 minutes of someones time, who would it be?
I can't pick just one! A famous name that comes to mind is Martin Luther King Jnr. He not only fought against injustice, but he did it in the name of the Lord. On a more local note (and alive) just having a chat and a laugh with a friend is pretty good too (and necessary)

Kid friendly, relevant 'sermons' from the pastor, up-to-date music & visual presentations.

- If you could have 10 minutes of someones time, who would it be?
Not sure. I enjoy talking to people but would probably enjoy listening to some of my favourite authors give a talk to a group of people rather than just me. (Or reading their biography or something instead)

Pia Orr
|
- What do you get passionate about?
Talking about
God, family, life, and fun because they are all interwoven and a huge part of what defines me as a person.
- What do you think people like about Riverside Christian Family Church?
The relaxed, casual atmosphere where people are real, accepting, warm, and friendly.
It's a family-friendly church.
- What is your favourite food & favourite movie?
I love all foods
except oysters and marmalade. I don't have a favourite movie because I love variety.
- What do you like to do in your spare time?
Play computer games, design house plans, play my piano, meet with friends, spend time with my husband and kids, or go Op Shopping
- If you could have 10 minutes of someones time, who would it be?
Apart from God himself, I have no idea who I would like to have 10 minutes with if I had the opportunity, because so many people through history and during my life have inspired, intrigued, educated, and entertained me, so I couldn't pick just one. And as silly as it may sound, sometimes I'm even content with my own company because in the end, even when I'm by myself I'm not alone.
