VBS Worker Thank You A great big "thank you" is extended to all the ranch hands at Saddle Ridge Ranch during this year's VBS. God moved in a mighty way among the guests at the ranch and Church vans had to run double routes on several days. The total enrollment was 299 with 30 professions of faith. Teachers, secretaries, cooks, recreation leaders, and many others shared their time and talents in this wonderful outreach effort. God is so good! THANK YOU!

Well, we reached the end of a very long day of VBS and prayer walking.  We originally were to only assist, but soon found out that we were in charge of stations.  Robert, Bob, & Carole were in charge of snacks and Bible stories.  Mary and I were in charge of recreation.  Annette was in charge of showing a video and having interaction with the children.  They were hoping for 70 children and had 62.  So, I look to seeing more than 70 showing up tomorrow.  We had a great day yesterday participating in English church service, Spanish church service, and finishing up with a Portuguese church service.  We went to Sheldon this afternoon and did a prayer walk around the old part of town seeking God's guidance in what ministering opportunities are available.  Keep praying for us as we continue our work here.  More updates each day.

The beautiful wind-swept oak trees are a striking and distinctive feature of the Aransas County landscape.  Just as the wind and the salt air shapes the oaks, we believe that the powerful presence of God is shaping us with the love of Jesus Christ!

Our Mission
The mission of FBC Rockport is to lead all people to be shaped by the love of Christ.

Our Core Values

We believe His love is shaping us through the lordship of Jesus Christ.

• Philippians 2:10-11 "That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
• John 14:15 "If you love me, you will obey what I command."
  

We believe His love is shaping us through the authority of Holy Scripture.

• 2 Timothy 3:16-17 "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work."
•   2 Samuel 22:31 "As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is flawless."
• Jeremiah 23:29 "Is not my word like fire," declares the LORD, "and like a hammer that breaks a rock in pieces?"
• Colossians 3:16 "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom."
• James 1:22 "Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says."
  

We believe His love is shaping us through a commitment to prayer.

• Ephesians 6: 18 "And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints."
• Matthew 21:22, "If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer."
•  Acts 4:31 "After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly."
