High Rock Community Denton, NC was birthed from the Bringle Ferry Campus of High Rock Community Church in Salisbury, NC the summer of 2006. It has been a challenging year and a half, but God has proved His faithfulness to us. With hard work and prayers, the campus has grown form 30 to 100 people on any given Sunday. The praise band has evolved from a keyboardist and a soprano with a tamborne to a full fledge band. These are some of only a dozen or so answers to prayers. We have seen lives transformed, marriages restored and people coming to know Christ as their personal Savior following in baptism. Glory be to God!!!! This past weekend was especially sweet . . . our praise team had had a retreat over the weekend and the spirit of God was moving as we were all in one accord. The same sweet spirit swept over us on Sunday as we welcomed Him into our warm up time and service. Over the past week and a half, we have been learning that worship is not an event, emotion, place or thing . . . it is a lifestyle. As we learned about what worhsip was, I beleive that we opened ourselves up to allow God's presences be known in our own lives which came out in our act of worhsip. God is doing some great things in Denton at High Rock Community. We are excited about what the year 2008 holds for us as individuals and as a church. As our lifestyle reflects God's glory and we praise Him for that, we pray that lives will be changed through the power of the Holy Spirit . . .
