About Me

There is a new church in town.
Nothing like the one down the street... or the one mamma has been begging you to go to!
rockhills church.
Or as I call it... rockhills!
First thing that sets us apart - we meet in a movie theatre.
Yes... Huebner Oaks AMC 24 - to be exact.
Second thing that sets us apart from about every other church in San Antonio - We welcome people who are skepticle of God, don't believe in God, burnt out by religion, weary of "Christians" and just plain find the idea of "church" to be "irrelevant" to their life.
Here's the low down on the church:
August 10th - next "preview service"
Meets at AMC Huebner Oaks Movie Theatre
Service starts at 10:01am - 11am
Come as you are - jeans, shorts whatever!
But we also meet in people's houses all over the city for parties, house concerts, and any other way to grow our relationships and ultimately - our friendships - as we grow ourselves spiritually as well.
Other Facts about rockhills:
THE MUSIC: Church music can be so predictable and less than creative.
NOT HERE! The music at Rock Hills will be mostly original songs mixed with songs of doubt and faith you may have even heard on the radio as you drive around town!
Have you ever REALLY noticed how many "so called" secular artists are singing songs with lyrics that are questioning God? Running to God? Running away from God? Or even singing his praises?
We wouldn't call their songs "Christian Music" would we?
- but their stuff does speak to the soul...
Let's explore some of these songs in the light of God's love for us!
Songs are stories that conncet with a heart. A story is a lot like a song.
Maybe God is a lot like a songwriter - that wants you to catch the melody of what He's saying to you?
THE BAND
Is made up of some of San Antonio's finest local musicians.... hard workin' guys and gals that are excellent at what they do! There will be a healthy rotation of who you may see on stage - ranging from Rock to Blues to European to Alt. Country... the "house band" will get you movin' thinkin' and groovin' to the good news!
rockhills want people of all faith backgrounds to feel comfortable here...
20 - 25% of the rockhills community are people who have no faith committment!
We're throwing neighborhood parties and house concerts all over town to help build the community of "Rock Groups" our name for home bible/prayer group meetings.
We will launch in September 2008
Our Kick Off Service is September 14th!
We will go full time - every sunday - in september... we gotta work out all the kinks!
For now - we'll meet on the 2nd Sunday of every month - at Huebner Oaks Movie Theatre at 10am
Make plans to come and hang with us... show up at a party - come say hello!
