NEW CHURCH BUILDING

Rock Harbor Church is a community of believers devoted to God’s Word.

ROCK HARBOR CHURCH

A New Home, A New Beginning

Over the past twelve years, Rock Harbor Church has operated out of temporary locations, always with the vision of having a permanent home. The patience and dedication of our community have been remarkable, and we’re delighted to announce that the wait is finally over. On Sunday, August 27th, 2023, we will be moving into our new building.

New Service Times: 8:00 am, 10:00 am, and 12:00 pm.

The new building, located at 10904 Snow Road, Bakersfield, CA, symbolizes a significant step forward for our community, and it’s all thanks to the collective effort and support from all of you.

We’re deeply grateful for the consistent encouragement and prayers we’ve received throughout this journey. As we embark on this new chapter at Rock Harbor Church, we invite you to join us in celebrating this significant milestone on Sunday, August 27th. We look forward to seeing you there!

Where is the Lord taking us?

We believe God is calling us to be a light in the darkness to a lost and ever-darkening world. The Gospel of Jesus Christ (the Good News about the Person and work of the Messiah) provided the way for sinners to move from the Kingdom of Darkness to the Kingdom of Light. Once we receive this truth by faith personally, we’re compelled to share the effects of this spiritual change with others and to grow in our relationship with the Messiah.

ROCK HARBOR CHURCH

We're On a Mission

Rock Harbor Church is a community of believers devoted to God’s Word. Founded upon an unwavering commitment to “anchor ourselves to the rock of Christ,” we teach the entire Bible verse by verse from Genesis to Revelation, and seek to apply its truth to our daily lives in order to go deeper in our walk with the Lord. We are a growing body of believers committed to reaching our culture with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We believe that the Bible is God’s Holy Word, and that it contains God’s perfect plan to redeem humanity from sin, through Jesus Christ’s sacrifice on the cross.

We defend God’s absolute truth in a relativistic culture. We desire to ground our understanding of current events from a biblical and prophetic perspective. We protect our people by warning of the growing apostasy inside and outside of Christendom. We value the Biblical family unit which was created by God to be the bedrock of a society. Therefore, our desire is to preserve our marriages and seek to protect and prepare our children to encounter a culture that is hostile to a biblical view of the family. We support the Jewish people, the nation of Israel, and the Lord’s plan for them.

We believe that Rock Harbor Church just didn’t happen, but that the LORD planted us in this area of Bakersfield for a specific reason. Our mission is simple and it guides everything we do: Love God, Love People, Share Jesus, Make Disciples. This mission is uniquely different compared to what the world offers to people. Our church offers what people need instead of what they think they want.
