We believe that God's calling for our church is to see every broken person experience the wholeness that is only available through the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We deeply love the Biblical ideal of shalom, the idea that "all is well" in your relationships. We want our kids to experience a right relationship with God, with themselves, with their family and friends, with their community, and with their world. We also know that God has given Chapel Rock the privilege of being in a strategic "middle place" between the city and the suburbs, so we have a unique opportunity to be a kind of church that gives fullest expression to the values of the Christian life.

You will be part of a team, serving alongside Nick, Sherry, and Carol.
