The Rock Church

Asheville Pregnancy Support Services exists to aid women, teens and families impacted by an unplanned pregnancy.  Our church supports APSS through volunteering, finances and their annual Breath of Life Walk.

We proudly support the Asheville Buncombe Community Christian Ministry financially on a regular basis, and encourage our church to volunteer their time as well.  ABCCM unites local churches to successfully minister to people in need, through crisis support, shelter, medical and prison services.

Each year, our entire church comes together to do something that none of us could do on our own.  We help provide Christmas for at least 500 kids in our area.

From donations, to sponsoring children, to wrapping and delivery, all ages of our church participate to make 500 children's dreams come true.

Based on a 2004 count, about 2000 individuals and familes are homeless each year in Asheville.  There are many more who struggle with drug and alcohol addictions.  The Western Carolina Rescue Ministries work with many of these people to lift them from where they are and help get their lives moving in the right direction. 

We go the 4th Saturday and 4th Sunday of each month.  We serve the residents first and then serve the street population.  We generally serve about 90 to 120 people each day we serve.  We are responsible for setting up the tables, serving the food, cleaning tables and resetting them, cleaning up the serving area, sweeping, mopping, etc. 

There are many areas where you can serve and make a difference.

Twice a year, we team up with the Western North Carolina branch of the American Red Cross for blood drives.   Our last drive had 37 donors - 37 people willing to give a little to help a lot of others in our community and region. 

Our next drive will be in January, 2009.
