About Us

Rock Church of the High Desert is a community of believers. What does that mean, the word community? We believe that together in fellowship we grow closer to God and one another. The Bible speaks about iron sharpening iron. We believe that together we grow stronger. We are a community of believers.

Rock Church of the High Desert strives to be a church without walls. Jesus calls for us to go outside the walls to reach the lost and the broken. It is there that the lost will be found. Rock Church of the High Desert makes an effort to be like the church from the book of Acts, to see our city changed.

Rock Church of the High Desert highly values our relationships with one another. We look to grow through fellowship, and ultimately growing closer to God. We value the word of God, and the leadership of the Holy Spirit. We look to extend grace to all of the lost and broken, and lead those with no hope to the hope of Jesus Christ.

The Rock Church of Victor Valley was birthed in 2009 by the vision of Bishop Don Conner and Pastor Bryan Axtell. It began as a Friendship Group with a few people gathering each week. The group continued to grow as more people gathered for prayer, teaching and fellowship.

In 2010, the growing number of people began to gather once a month for worship at the Green Tree Hotel in Victorville. Shortly after, The Rock Church was approved by the United Pentecostal Church International as a home missions work.

Our name was changed to The Rock Church of the High Desert in 2015 to better reflect our vision.
