Updates
Hear Every Word, Clearly
We’re excited to offer Assisted Listening at White Rock Community Church for the hearing impaired! Using our assisted listening system, you can hear the service audio directly through your own device.
We encourage you to download the ListenWIFI app on your smartphone and connect using your own Bluetooth headphones, earbuds, or compatible hearing aids. If you don’t have a compatible device, we also have two Assisted Listening receivers available to borrow. Just ask the sound technician for assistance.
Our goal is simple: to make it easier for everyone to hear, participate, and stay connected throughout the service.
We are growing!
Please share your preferences about our transition to two services anonymously through this link, or connect with Deanna in the office.
We’re Looking for Volunteers!
Do you have a heart for ministry and a passion to serve? There are many opportunities to get involved at White Rock Community Church, whether you enjoy working with kids, welcoming people, helping behind the scenes, using your creative or technical skills, or simply lending a hand where it’s needed.
Not sure where you fit? That’s okay! Fill out our quick volunteer survey and tell us a little about your interests. We’ll connect with you and help find an opportunity that’s a great fit. No experience necessary. Training and support will be provided!

Children’s Ministry Needs You!
We are looking for adult Nursery volunteers for both our 9:15am and 11:00am services as we prepare for our new two-service schedule.
Our goal is to have a team of 4–5 adult volunteers in rotation for each service, so that serving is shared and no one is carrying too much of the load. Right now, we have just 2 adult Nursery volunteers, so we would love to welcome several more people to the team!
Our Nursery has some growing little ones who are ready for some extra loving arms, while giving their mamas an opportunity to refresh and enjoy the service.
Please connect with Deanna for more info, or click on the volunteer application button a little further down in this newsletter.
Save the date!
Our church would love to send our Children's Ministry to the Raised to Reach Kids Ministry Conference in Vancouver on October 24, 2026.
Deanna has developed a great collaboration with Child Evangelism Fellowship, where we get our STEM Club and Summer Camp curriculum, which has been very enriching to our kiddos.
Connect with Deanna if you can join us!!
