Lisa Abbott

Executive Assistant

Welcome to Riverside! My husband Don and I live in Big Lake with our dog Tatum. We have three adult children including our bonus daughter by marriage and two adorable grandchildren. Riverside has been home to us since 1986; we are blessed by our relationships here and our entire family has enjoyed learning, engaging and serving.

God has used a college education in business & psychology, as well as diverse work and life experiences, to equip me for all the ways He calls me to support the Riverside family. I often hear the phrase, "You look so familiar; where do I know you from?" It is my sincere privilege to serve in both my employment and volunteer roles, and I love using the gifts God has given me to encourage others in word and deed (I've been told told I'm an excellent hugger).

It truly is a joy to work, serve, and worship here - I hope you'll give it a try because it really is not just a church you can attend, but a family where you can belong. Give me a call or stop me on a Sunday to visit (I'm the one usually hanging out by the elevator at the Big Lake campus) and I'll be glad to answer your questions or help you get connected!
