  • Riverside's Next Generations Youth Ministry in-person Sabbath School classes are back! All classes will begin at 10:00 am and end at 11:15 am.

Contact Phillis Dyer at elementary@riversidenashville.org or at 615-438-322216 with any questions.

    Because of lingering Covid protocols, the Sabbath School rooms are at reduced capacity and will require registration. The Next Generations staff also created some safety measures to protect our kiddos as Youngs Lane becomes busier. If you already have updated profiles in our member management program Breeze, you received an email or text message instructing you what to do to secure your child’s place on campus tomorrow or any future Sabbath through the end of May. Registration is SIMPLE. All we need is a current email address and mobile number for at least one parent. Do not fret, we can accomplish the very same thing in-person at the Clerk’s desk in the lobby. If you did not receive an email or text, please complete the forms below.
