La Roca Church is Overflowing and We Need Your Help
Church Service
God is blessing us abundantly. After being able to secure our current building with an affordable lease we began refurbishing the bottom floor of our two story building. Opening day was more than we expected and since then God continues to bring new people and members. Now in less than six months we have max’ed-out our bottom floor ministry capacity and we need to refurbish our top floor. We desperately need space for youth meetings, Sunday School classes, and ministry meetings. Please, please consider helping us expand our top floor. Contact us as soon as you can to discuss what you can do. The people of Tijuana need Jesus and He is bringing them at a rapid pace. Please partner with us.
House of Grace “Sponsor-A-Child”
In James 1:27 it says, “Pure and undefiled religion before our God and Father is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself unstained by the world” And that is what we do. We always have our doors open for those who need help. Many of the children we have here at the House of Grace have come from homes with abuse and neglect. From parents who do drugs, or who are in prostitution or who’ve abandoned them when they were little causing them to grow up in orphanages.

Carlos, Rossy & Girls 
La Roca Ministries reaches out to touch people’s lives that are devastated by poverty, neglect and despair. These people find themselves enslaved to drugs and alcohol and living in the streets of Tijuana, Mexico. Our desire is to mirror Christ’s compassion and concern to these people.
It has been said, “give a person a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish and you feed him for a life.” We believed in “teaching people how to fish”. We want to see lives transformed and we believe that comes through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Our program seeks to help rebuild lives by making disciples; raising up men, women and teens as future leaders and missionaries, and sending them forth to advance the Kingdom of God on earth.
Thank you for your prayers and financial support. You are making a difference today and for eternity! -
My name is Amanda and I am 22 years old. I have been coming to Tj since I was 14. I came down here last month (January) to stay for a year. Its amazing being here and watching people’s lives being changed by the various ministries. I am so blessed to be here. I know a lot of people worry about the violence and decide not to come. But there is no reason to be afraid. Out of all the times I’ve been down here, I’ve never had a problem with anything. We’ve actually gone to the beach in the evening had a small worship service before. You shouldn’t wander off alone to late, but it’s not like you should do that in any city. I’m more scared when I’m wandering around my own city at night then I am here. All I know is that God called me here, and nothing will stop me because I have him on my side. There is a phrase I keep posted that says, “Fear knocked at the door, and faith answered, there was no one there.” What more is there to say ?
