Riverside High School will be hosting a Fields of Faith event on Wednesday night from 6 pm until 8 pm. All students in Decatur County and surrounding counties are invited to attend. This event will be student-led, but is open to all ages in the community.
Fields of Faith is a movement for students and the community to share their faith through students telling their faith story, praise and worship, and the sharing of the Gospel.
In the Fellowship of Christian Athletes promo video, they declare the following statements about the power of this type of movement among our young people. “When students are the ones to rally and share their faith, there’s no telling what could happen. God is up to something huge in the lives of these students. When a community comes together to worship and pray, there is no limit to what God can do.”

SENIORS:
>If you are a football player, on the dance or cheer team, or in the band please see Ms. Nelda if you haven't gotten the form to fill out for senior night. Return it ASAP. Senior Night is this Friday, Oct. 27.
>Senior Superlative pictures are Wednesday, Oct. 25. All students must ride the bus there and back.
>All seniors need to be searching for a penny with your birth year on it for the Penny Burial after Friday's game!
