Who is 2Rivers Church in O’Fallon, MO? // 2Rivers 25th Anniversary

Who is 2Rivers Church in O’Fallon, MO? In this video, you’ll hear
our leadership team discuss our history and share stories of
God’s faithfulness from founding pastor Ron Cathcart and his
wife, Debi.





===============





Today, we're celebrating 25 years as God's church called 2Rivers!
Our Executive Pastor, Nick Tallo, and Director of Ministry, Sarah
Good, sit down with Pastor Ron and Debi to discuss 2Rivers' early
days and some of their favorite moments. Ron also shares his
vision for the next 25 years, to ensure Jesus remains the lead
story at 2Rivers Church.





This is a service with some tears, some laughter, and a lot of
thankfulness to God for what He’s done.





Debi shared her favorite verse, Romans 1:11–12, a key verse for
the Cathcarts and our church’s ministry: “I long to see you so
that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you
strong—that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each
other’s faith.”





Ron shared Ephesians 3:20–21: “Now to him who is able to do
immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his
power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church
and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and
ever! Amen.”

WHO IS 2RIVERS CHURCH?





2Rivers Church is a non-denominational congregation in O'Fallon,
MO, pastored by Ron Cathcart. We exist to help people become
passionate followers of Jesus.





WHEN WAS 2RIVERS CHURCH FOUNDED?





2Rivers Church was founded in April 1999 by Ron Cathcart. We
started as a portable church, meeting at Bryan Middle School,
then Timberland High School. Our current and permanent home is at
88 Hubble Drive in O’Fallon, MO.





WHY WAS 2RIVERS CHURCH FOUNDED?





Ron Cathcart is a St. Louis-area native. He served on the staff
of a few churches and as the lead pastor of one other, but
dreamed of a new way to "do church." He and Debi prayed and
launched the church in April 1999.





WHAT WAS THE VISION FOR 2RIVERS CHURCH WHEN IT WAS FOUNDED?





When Pastor Ron dedicated his life to God, he saw how Jesus
changed every part of his life. He and Debi dreamed of a
congregation that would help people become passionate followers
of Jesus. 





HOW DID 2RIVERS CHURCH GET ITS NAME?





When Ron Cathcart and his launch team tried to come up with a
name, they tried several and weren't satisfied. But Ron got an
advertisement mailer from a local business named 2Rivers. He
liked it, and the name stuck!
