Recreation Outreach Center

The ROC

Ministry through Activity

The ROC (Recreation Outreach Center) is an extension of First Baptist Church of Longview and is looking to promote ministry, community outreach, and assist other churches that may not have access to a large facility, to host events and share the Gospel.

For your convenience, the ROC has a walking track, LifeFitness cardio equipment, WIFI, weight room, locker room with showers and a full-sized basketball court. We have spaces for rent for conferences and organizational or business meetings. In addition, we have areas suited for parties, showers, and luncheons. While the ROC is a Christian facility that caters to individuals pursuing a Christian lifestyle, ALL are welcome to be members as long as they respect the values of the Christian faith. The ROC is a family-friendly facility encouraging families to come and spend time playing together. This is a gun-free and drug/alcohol-free campus.
