Welcome to Rivertown URC
Welcome to our church, this could be your church too!
As a member of our worshipping community, a user or potential user of our building, or even if you are seeking a spiritual home or are just curious, we want you to know that you are most welcome here.
Rivertown church has stood on the High Street in Shotton for over 125 years and has always served its community. Many people hold fond memories and share positive thoughts about our fellowship here.
The fellowship is people of different ages and backgrounds, and we are all united in love and in our desire to serve God and the people of Deeside.
We look forward to welcoming you in person to any of the events and activities we host during the week or when we come together for worship at 11.00 am each Sunday morning.

Community Building Project
We’re getting ready to ‘Open Our Doors Widely” and expand our church, our community, and our facilities. With a focus on accessibility and a greater capacity for resources, including multiple and varied rooms dedicated for hire and different functions, our Community Building Project is receiving funding to grow bigger and better than ever. Working with the local architect, Ainsley Gommon, we’re excited for this huge project to finally get underway.
