What does the Miami Heat basketball team and Riviera Beach have in common? Aside from the fact that they're both in Florida, they're both "home" to Chris Bosh! Chris joined the Miami Heat in a much publicized battle between Miami and Cleveland. After much ado, speaking with his mother, and his friend Dwayne Wade, Chris made the decision to join the Miami Heat!How does Riviera Beach fit into this picture? Chris' mother, Freida Bosh, resides in Riviera Beach and attends Avenue S Church of Christ, as does many family friends. The congregation is thrilled about Chris' return to Florida as it makes their ground breaking that much sweeter!

The church suffered a loss in 2004 when their worship facility was destroyed by the numerous hurricanes that blew through the region. A new building has been in the works ever since and the day has finally come to break ground and begin construction. AMC was awarded the project and was happy to participate in the festivities!
