The Rock Church in Squamish, BC is a new expression of a 2,000 year-old movement called ekklesia in the Greek world of that day, but more familiar to us today as—the church. We are followers of the one true Jesus Christ, who love God, love our neighbours and love Squamish. We value Jesus above all, authenticity, creativity and generosity and seek to engage our culture with the amazing grace of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We don’t pretend to have our lives all together, but we do turn our lives over to an awesome God who does.

The Paul & Carla Siemens and their family led our Scripture reading, candle lighting and prayer time as our first candle was lit to celebrate the beginning of Advent, a time when we begin to look forward to the birth of our Savior, who is Christ the Lord.

Bring the family and join us each Sunday night at 6:30 PM, downtown at our new building – 38055 Cleveland Avenue for the service and time of fellowship, hot Apple Cider, Hot Chocolate, Coffee, Tea and a few Christmas snacks!

Here are a few more pictures from this evening…

Brendan Adrian and Jonathan Davies will also be remembered as the first to be baptized at The Rock Church!

It was a very special day for family and friends, some of whom traveled from Chilliwack and Salt Spring Island to be here to celebrate the commitment to follow Jesus that these young men made.

Both young men shared their personal testimonies during our gathering at the Eagle Eye Community Theatre and then it was off to Alice Lake for the official baptisms. Prior to being immersed in the lake by pastor Glenn, Rod Adrian, Brendan’s father gave and word of encouragement to his son and Janice Davies, Jonathan’s mother, gave the same for her son.
