We Pray First
Prayer is our first response, not our last option. When you Pray First, you open the door for God to do far more than you could ever ask or imagine. As we seek Him together, faith rises, unity deepens, and spiritual energy builds.
What Prayer Does in Your Life:
- Prayer sharpens your faith.
- Prayer creates deeper intimacy with God.
- Prayer is powerful and brings about change.
Join Us to Pray First:

At Church on the Rock, we love our community and are dedicated to serving it in meaningful ways. As part of our God Is for Our City outreach, we offer a weekly food pantry every Thursday from 10am–12pm and the second Saturday of each month from 10am–12pm at our 888 Birdie Hills Campus, inside the Family Life and Learning Center (FLLC).
In addition, on the second Thursday of each month, we’ll also have personal care items available.
Each week, we provide food boxes filled with non-perishable food items and common household essentials (as available) to anyone who could use a little extra support. It’s our way of showing God’s love in a practical way, because God is for you, and we are too.
We believe every boy has been uniquely created by God with purpose, potential, and a calling on his life.
Royal Rangers will help boys in grades K-12 discover who God created them to be and equip them to become the men, leaders, husbands, fathers, and servants He has called them to become through team building activities, group bible study, and training in a wide variety of skills.
Royal Rangers meets every Thursday night at 6pm in the Family Life and Learning Center (gym).
