About RCC

History

Over 25 years ago a small, non-denominational congregation called The Northeast Church was planted in a warehouse in Garland, Tx. By God’s generous grace that church grew, and with Ronnie Worsham’s vision to be a church-planting church, it planted Wylie Northeast Church and Arlington Central Church. Wylie Northeast planted Denton North and East Plano Fellowship.

Richardson Community Church is the sixth and most recent church plant, being planted from the original Northeast Church in Garland. While each one of the churches in our “family of churches” has its own autonomy, we all share similar defining characteristics. All of our churches are committed to gathering around simple Christianity that emphasizes Jesus as Lord, building from the ground up, being a tight-knit family, and emphasizing one-on-one discipleship.

Our history as the most recent of six churches keeps us rooted as a new church plant. We have five other sister churches that love us, root for us, and would happily give us any help we may need as we continue to form a church family. God is too good!

Vision

The vision for RCC is to be a Jesus-focused church that is a family, rooted in our community, and full of Kingdom-builders.

A Family

A healthy family doesn’t just do a check-in once a week; they eat together, laugh and cry together, live with one another, and willingly bind themselves together for life. They may have disagreements and hard seasons but they stick together because they’re family. We’re building a church that’s meant to stick together, one where we and our children are rooted in deep, meaningful relationships for generations to come. Jesus said people would know who his disciples were based on how they loved one another (Jn 13:35). We want to be a church where people are loved, not like family, but as family.

Rooted in our community

The standard metric for church success is how many people come; we want it to be whether we’re bringing Jesus to our community. We want to serve the people who live and work around us by inviting them into a loving community and showing them Jesus by the way we engage, serve, and live. To be rooted in community is to be devoted to serving and loving our neighbors one person at a time.

FULL OF KINGDOM-BUILDERS

While attending a church service is the starting point for many people, we want to go further and deeper. Christ has invited us on the great mission of renewing and reclaiming a wayward world and he’s asked each one of us to go all-out to join him. We’re building a church of kingdom-builders: people who want to live out the Great Commission by being salt and light to those inside and outside our church community.
