Welcome to The Rock City Church.

May you find this Church your HOME.  We’d love to get to know you and we want to see you grow in your faith.

The Rock City Church is formerly known as Dau Christian Community Church that existed for 42 thriving years. It was formerly led by Rev. Rodolfo Betansos and in 2020 he passed the baton of leadership to his son, Rev. John Paul Betansos where he was ordained as the Senior Pastor.

In October 2020, the church launched its new name and brand, The Rock City Church, believing that God is positioning us to reach the lost both locally and globally.

who we are

Our Core Values are the essence of our identity and support the vision of our church and help shape our culture.

While there are many different and valid ways of organizing a church, we feel that the healthiest way is to operate like a family. Here, we value long-term relationships. Because the family is the foundation and validation of ministry, we refuse to sacrifice our marriages and our children on the altars of temporal success. And because we believe God has called us to be a spiritual family, we embrace community, reject the idea of disposable relationships, and choose to walk in love, respect, and unity.

We are called to serve before we are called to lead. Just how Jesus came not to be served but to serve, then every leader must become a servant first. It does not matter where you are serving, as long as you are helping! You are important in the Kingdom of God!

We value reaching out to lost souls and sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ. We always go beyond the walls of the church into the community to share God’s love to others. Through outreach, ministries and a genuine compassion, we seek to bring others closely to God’s arms.

We are to carry out the Great Commission God has placed on us: to make disciples of all nations! Our goal is to help them know more about Christ and live the life that God designed for them.

 

Part of honoring Jesus is honoring His Body, and every believer around us is part of that Body. To dishonor His Body is to dishonor Him. So our culture is to purposefully honor, encourage, and lift up one another as part of expressing worship to the Lord.

We are called to submit to the spiritual authority God has placed on us. We honor those who are above us as well as those people who God has entrusted to us. 

We proclaim that God is the Lord of all: that we are not on our own and we belong to our savior, Jesus Christ. We are yielding our lives to God alone and acknowledge that He deserves our utmost obedience.

We take pleasure in offering God our very best because that’s what He deserves. We value and treasure God for who He is by putting our greatest effort in serving Him and His Kingdom.

We acknowledge that everything we own belongs to God. We are called to manage God’s creation and bring the best of what He provides for us so that we may bring glory to Him.
