We live in New Braunfels, and spend as much time on or in the river as possible. I’m the Director of Women’s Ministry for River City Church. We’ve named it Sisterhood, because that’s what the goal is, and I am devoted to making spiritual family and community a way of life as opposed to just a concept. My blogs and lessons revolve around this central idea, so when you stop in to read or listen, what you’ll find is a tone of solidarity, encouragement, authenticity and a healthy dose of laughter. I am grateful beyond measure to the Creator of all things, who chooses to love us, protect us and put up with our falls and fails on a daily basis. He truly has infinite patience and grace, giving meaning to the word Father in ways I still have trouble grasping. You can visit me at RebeccaGreebon.com which hosts my blog, The River Chick, or find me on Facebook and Instagram. I also occasionally write for The Glorious Table, ChristianParenting.org, and Community Moms blog, as well as have guest posts on Empty Plate Full Heart, Being Brave and The Imperfect Journey.
