Who We Are
The Rock Church has served the local South Bay Area for the past 42 years. We have existed to be a place of Hope for those that are searching for a personal relationship with the Lord. A refuge for the hurting. i A home for the lost. We are Apostolic in Doctrine and Pentecostal in our Experience.
Our Mission
The Rock Church is a place where people come to experience the authentic, powerful, life-changing presence of God. Our amazing fellowship of people are passionate about knowing God and pouring out love so that others can participate in the hope that comes from the message of the Cross and from Jesus Christ, the risen Savior. We are a culture of redemptive grace that empowers us to live daily with that blessed hope of glory, which is in us! We believe in the original Apostles’ doctrine. We also believe that Matthew 28:19 is the mandate
to all believers which teaches us to disciple all men and women so that they will become passionate followers of Jesus Christ.
The Rock Church has been a Safe
Place for Broken people in search of Hope & Grace in the Mountain
View & Sunnyvale Communities. A Refuge for Real People with Real
Problems.

Our Purpose
TO
MAKE DISCIPLES OF JESUS CHRIST
The Rock
Church is a church established by Biblical truth and committed to making
disciples. Our purpose is to “make disciples” of
Jesus Christ. We do this through prayer, the Word, personal involvement, and fellowship. We encourage every individual to passionately follow, serve and grow in Christ.
Core Beliefs
The Word
We
are founded upon the belief that the Bible is the inspired, infallible Word of
God. (2 Timothy 3:16, 2 Peter 1:19)
God
We
believe there is only one God (Deuteronomy 6:4 ). He is the creator of heaven
and earth, and of all living beings. He has revealed Himself to humanity as the
Father (Creator), as the Son (Savior), and as the Holy Ghost (indwelling
Spirit).
Baptism
We believe in water baptism by immersion in the Name
of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of sin. Through baptism we identify with the death,
burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ Romans 6:3-6; Colossians 2:11-14; Acts
2:38; Acts 4:12
The
Holy Spirit
We
believe in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with the initial sign of speaking in
other tongues. Acts 2:4; Acts 19:6; Acts 10:44-46
Gifts
of the Sprit
We
believe in the manifestation of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. He ministers to
His people through tongues, interpretation of tongues, prophecy; words of
knowledge and wisdom, discerning of spirits, faith, working of miracles,
healing, helps and government. Mark 16:15-18; Acts 5:16; 2 Corinthians 12:1-11
