ROCKMINISTRY 

We are here to connect with the community, then connect the community to God through Jesus Christ. We are a strong and loving, family-centred church that welcomes all, not only in the coffee bar, but to our Sunday worship & social activities too. Our worship is contemporary & uplifting, and messages are relevant and Bible-based.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
