In March, Solid Rock Youth Ministries hosted an open house to celebrate its 25th anniversary of serving the Quarryville community. People were able to drop in, meet the team, see the space, and learn about Solid Rock’s mission, which is to earn trust through authentic mentoring relationships with kids in kindergarten through 12th grade so lives can be changed by the Gospel of Jesus Christ. To accomplish this mission, Solid Rock offers several activities throughout the

As Solid Rock continues to celebrate its anniversary, the board and staff have decided to reorganize its schedule of annual fundraising events. This year, the farm-to-table event will take place in late July, the 5K and Fun Run is planned for early October, and the auction and dinner has been moved from the fall to the spring. Solid Rock has been hosting the annual auction and dinner since 2003, but the event has not been held in person since 2019 due to the See Solid Rock Auction pg 2
