ROCK Mid-Week Bible Studies Tuesday Nights - Middle School - 7:00 - 8:30pm Wednesday Nights - High School - 7:00 - 8:30pm
Our Ministry Our desire is to create a ministry that reaches a generation of young people who see no relevance in religion. Our target audiences are middle school and high school. We target these populations through weekly worship services, Bible studies, community-building activities, events, camps, mission trip, service projects, and retreats.
Our Mission Everything we do works to reflect Christ's invitation for young people to “come unto him!” The most important association a person can develop is a personal, life changing and eternal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Our Goal It has been said that 80% of people who will develop a relationship with God will do so before The age of twenty. Therefore at The ROCK, we are very intentional in all that we do. Our goal is to bring young people the invitation to meet Christ and grow into a relationship with Him by creating an environment appealing enough to be attractive, beneficial enough to be life changing, and authentic enough to be shared.
Volunteer to Serve The Rock is seeking out volunteers that know Christ and want to make Him made known to the next generation. We are looking for volunteers to serve in several different areas at The Rock:  - Middle School Mid Week Small Group Leader - Middle School Camp Counselor - High School Small Group Leader/Host - High School Camp Counselor - High School Mid-Week Volunteer This is an amazing opportunity to come alongside students and their families to guide and encourage as they grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ.    Click Here to Download the Application
