Our Church

Our Vision

Love God.
Love Each Other.
Serve Our Community.

Our Values

  • We believe that God is a God of love. Through a relationship with Jesus, we can live in a relationship of love and be loving towards others (1 John 4:16; Colossians 3:17).

  • We practice Sabbath as a time for self-care, family, reflection, and connection with God (Exodus 20:8-11). We care for our health and that of our families.

  • Inspired by God’s self-giving nature (John 3:16), we share our time, resources, and love to support, serve, and uplift others both in our church and in our community (2 Corinthians 9:7).

  • We value relationships, encouraging spiritual growth together, supporting each other through the ups and downs of life (Hebrews 10:24-25).

  • We value creating a safe and secure environment where families and children can grow together in faith in a multi-generational context, fostering a sense of belonging and love.

Our Pastor

Deirdre Solomon – Lead Pastor

I’m Pastor Deirdre, lead pastor of Riverview Adventist Church. I’m passionate about sharing the Good News of God’s love for all people. I enjoy creating authentic communities where people of all generations can grow spiritually and know they belong.

As a mom to three amazing kids—Gideon, Kara, and Jericho—I understand the importance of helping the next generation love God, love others, and serve. My husband, Kevin, is also a pastor, serving at the Sparks Seventh-day Adventist Church, and together we’re committed to making God’s grace known in our community.

Our Story

Riverview Adventist Church is a welcoming place where people of all ages can connect, grow in faith, and support each other.

Founded in Reno in 1878, our church now resides on West Fourth Street on a hill overlooking the Truckee River, where we share our campus with Riverview Academy, creating a safe space where families can thrive.

We celebrate the Sabbath as a time for rest and renewal, and we invite you to join us, whether you’re new to the area or looking for a place to belong.

Come be a part of our warm, multigenerational family.
