What are Community Groups?
  • Start by exploring the list of Community Groups. We offer many different kinds of groups for all kinds of people.
  • Once you find a Community Group that sounds interesting call the group leader and introduce yourself.
  • Arrange to visit the Community Group and see if it “fits.” If it does, then continue to visit until you feel comfortable making a commitment. If the group doesn’t seem right for you, then you can start the process over with another group, or you can call one of our Community Group leadership team and ask for some help.

Community Groups listed by day of the week:
Sunday l Monday l Tuesday l Wednesday l Thursday l Friday l Various Days l Home Groups l Ministry/Prayer l Service l Support

Marriage Ministry: The Rock's Marriage Mentoring Program

We’re all about service.  Our team is available to help with greeting, the resource center, ushering and support for special events.

• Resource Center - We specialize in duplicating the sermon to CD’s so that they are available for purchase, handle the sale of vitamins and help with
special event sales.  If you are good with people, can run a simple cash register and make change then this is the area for you.  We would love to have you!
• Usher - During services we show guests to available seats, help with the offering and communion (on designated weekends) direct families to the children’s area to drop off their children, hand out welcome packets and help with greeting.  If you want to serve in your normal service time, this is for you.
