Missions We Support
Solid Rock Church takes seriously the commands of Jesus to “go and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19), to “love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind” (Matthew 22:37), and to “love your neighbor as yourself” (Matthew 22:39). In an effort to fulfill these commands, Solid Rock supports a variety of missions, on local, national, and international levels.
