Truth in action in Riverhead, New York

Welcome to the First Congregational Church of Riverhead, a vibrant and welcoming place of worship located at 103 1st Street, Riverhead, New York. As a cornerstone of the community, our church is dedicated to spiritual growth, community service, and fostering a sense of belonging for all who enter our doors. Our Bread and More Soup Kitchen continues to be a beacon of hope, offering free to-go meals every Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 5:30 to 6:15 PM. We believe in the power of service and community support, which is why we are also collecting school supplies through the last Sunday of August. Donations can be dropped off at the church office, our Thrift Shop, or in the sanctuary on Sunday mornings. Monetary donations are also welcome, and our dedicated volunteers are ready to do the shopping on your behalf.

Welcome to St. John Paul II Regional School, a nurturing educational community located at 515 Marcy Avenue, Riverhead, New York. As a primary school dedicated to fostering both academic excellence and spiritual growth, we are inspired by the words of Pope Saint John Paul II: "Faith and reason are like two wings on which the human spirit rises to the contemplation of truth; and God has placed in the human heart a desire to know the truth—in a word, to know himself." At St. John Paul II Regional School, we believe in the harmonious integration of faith and learning. Our curriculum is designed to challenge young minds while nurturing their spiritual, moral, and social development. We strive to create a welcoming environment where students can explore their interests, develop critical thinking skills, and grow in their relationship with God.
