Our mission is to develop an intimate relationship with God, to lift up his Son, Jesus Christ, and be empowered by his Holy Spirit.  As believers, we minister the love of Jesus as we encourage, equip and nurture each other and as we reach out to the lost, the hurting and the needy.  As the church of Jesus Christ, we will grow together in faith and unity as we live in obedience to him.

Is. 61:1-4, Lk. 4:18, Matt. 28:19, Acts 1:8, Eph. 4:11-16

 

Rockville Fellowship, formerly Rockville Mennonite Church, was a church plant in the mid 1930's by another Mennonite church in our area of Central Pennsylvania.  We are presently part of the Hopewell Network  of Churches, www.hopewellnetwork.org,with both statewide and international churches.  This network functions with an apostolic mindset to locally and globally advance Christ's kingdom together.

Rockville Fellowship's ministry has been and continues to be "to the least of these," plus much of our energies and efforts are about participating in and financially supporting missions both locally and around the world.

STATEMENT OF FAITH

  • We believe in one God, eternally existing as Father, Son and Holy Spirit                                                                                                                                   Deut. 6:4,  Heb. 11:6, Matt. 28:19
  • We believe in Jesus Christ as God who became flesh, born of a virgin.  He lived a sinless life, was crucified for our sins, was resurrected from the dead, and ascended, sitting at the right hand of the Father as the exalted Lord and head of the church.                                                   Jn 1:14, Heb. 1:1-6, Phil. 2-5-8, Rom 1:4, Col. 1:15-19
