Opportunities for service
Our various service ministries provide our members with many different areas in which to serve. As all members of the body of Christ have different functions, we see to it that our members have plenty of places to exercise their spiritual gifts.
Benevolence Ministry
To help meet the physical needs of those in our church family, in the community, and abroad.
Building and Grounds
Begin the expansion of our facilities, including and beyond the current structure, to include: a new auditorium, additional classrooms, new office and library facilities, additional parking, and expanded fellowship facilities for the youth. The area of service also includes the care and maintenance of the building and property.
Education Ministry
Sustain an ongoing educational program, with an effective curriculum that encourages spiritual and numerical growth.
Evangelism
To seek and to save the lost. We work through Bible studies, instruction, and encouragement to help each member of the Rockledge family to develop an evangelistic mindset and to understand the importance of going out and spreading the gospel.
Fellowship Ministry
To maintain and expand a ministry setting that challenges the spiritual gifts of the entire family in many diverse areas. We recognize, from the example of the first-century church, that church fellowship is the crux of creating the family environment that God intended for His people to have. With many times of fellowship we hope to achieve a very high percentage of consistent involvement of the family in all of our ministries.
Information - Prayer Line Ministry
To inform the church of prayer requests, ill members or other important information, in a rapid and effective manner.
Home Bible Study Groups
The purpose of the home Bible study groups is five fold:
- To study God’s word in an unthreatening environment. This will allow people to open up and share with others what they are feeling and thinking.
- To meet the needs of others.
- To provide a biblical pattern for evangelism.
- To develop leadership skills.
- To give the shepherds an avenue of getting to know the flock better.
