If you’d like to develop authentic, genuine and lifelong relationships with others, then you’ll be glad to know that new groups are forming all the time.

Our Churches are founded solidly on two key Biblical passages:

The Great Commission ~ "Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit". (Matthew 28:19)

The Great Commandment ~ “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and soul, mind and strength, and love your neighbor as yourself". (Mark 12:30-31)

Based on these two foundational teachings, this is a place where people can find new life in Christ, can express their love for God in worship, and their love for neighbors through service.

Our worship service at St. Matthews is traditional format. The services at the Rock are casual and upbeat. The music at The Rock is lead by the Praise Team. Our Pastor's teachings help you apply the wisdom of Scripture to your daily life. Our Churches are family friendly where children are welcome.
