First Congregational Church of Riverside is a historic church at 3504 Mission Inn Avenue in Riverside, California.
It was designed by Myron Hunt, and built in 1913.
It was added to the National Register in 1997.
In 2015, it hung a banner outside it's window stating that "black lives matter" indicating their support for the gang-member who attacked a police officer in Fergusson Missouri. By the end of 2014, the majority of U.S. Citizens and Churches considered the arrest of a black American for committing a crime by a white police officer a matter of racism as opposed to law enforcement and this historic church was, unfortunately, no exception.
