What is an Ocean Rock Partner?
Everyone is welcome at Ocean Rock Church. Whether you're new to faith, returning after some time away, or growing deeper in your walk with Jesus, you belong here.
Partnership is a personal commitment to say:
“I’m in. This is my church, and I’m here to grow, serve, and walk with others.” While some churches use the term “member,” we believe Partner better reflects the kind of relationship we’re building—a shared journey of following Jesus, living with purpose, and loving one another in community.
Why am I invited to be a Partner at ORC?
Ocean Rock is a congregation-led church, meaning big decisions aren’t made from the top down—we make them together.
As a Partner, you’re invited to:
Be part of a spiritual family that knows you, values you, and walks with you. Have a voice and vote in key church decisions and leadership confirmations. Join a culture of kindness, belonging, and transformation—where there’s space for your gifts, your growth, and your story. This is your home. You belong here.
What is expected of me?
Partnership isn’t about perfection—it’s about participation. To learn more about what we believe and what drives us, visit our About Us page, where you’ll find our full statement of faith, mission, vision, and core values.
As a Partner, we ask that you:
Follow Jesus and allow His Word to shape my life.
Live out our core values of grace, truth, community, diversity, and mission.
Support the church through prayer, generosity, and serving alongside others.
Reflect Jesus in everyday life—at home, at work, and in the city.
Join the mission of Ocean Rock Church by helping connect people to Jesus through how I live, love, and serve.
No matter where you are on your journey, you’re invited to take this step.
How do I become a Partner?
Simple.
Read through the Partnership Agreement, take time to pray and reflect, and if you're ready, submit the online Partnership Form linked below.
We’ll follow up personally to celebrate this step with you and help you get connected.
Who can I talk to if I have questions?
We’d love to talk. Reach out to Pastor Nehemiah or anyone on our Leadership Team, or email us at connect@oceanrockchurch.com.
Is this commitment forever?
Nope. Life changes. Seasons shift. That’s why Partnership at ORC is a two-year commitment, with the opportunity to renew every two years.
If at any point you need to step away from Partnership, just let us know by having a conversation with Pastor Nehemiah or sending us a quick email. We’ll walk with you through it.
