Client spotlight: Rockharbor Church

December 12, 2023

Located in Costa Mesa CA, Rockharbor Church has seen a lot of growth and change since their launch back in 1997. With over 1,500 people in attendance and an ongoing mission to impact the next generation, the need for technology has grown in order to effectively streamline church management, simplify online giving, and make their ministry more accessible online.

Check out their story and discover how finding the right church tech partner can make all the difference. 

A search for better technology

However, like many churches, the team at Rockharbor found it increasingly difficult to manage multiple tech platforms, tools, and logins just to get things done. Each new tool—that was supposed to save them time and money—ended up adding another layer of complexity, costs, and learning curves. 

Young Adults Pastor, Gavin Lamming, shared his experience, “Over the years as technology has evolved so must the Church. Mobile apps are important for that, and we saw the need to continually be on the cutting edge of technology and figure out ways to reach people. As a church that’s oriented towards the next generation, there are more and more platforms that we are competing with.” 

They began to reevaluate their platforms to see what was working or not. Their previous giving provider offered solutions that fell short, causing their team to look for a real solution that would bring all of their online tools together on one platform

Simple solution for maximum impact

They discovered Subsplash and decided to try out a mobile church app. The response was so incredible that they decided to adopt more Subsplash tools. 

We switched our giving platform over completely, which was a really seamless process that has already paid dividends,” Gavin explains. “More people realized that everything they need is in this one place. So it’s increased involvement, it’s increased giving, it’s increased media engagement, and so much more!” 

Support for a seamless onboarding

Unlike other church tech platforms that promise a lot but deliver little, Subsplash is known for world-class support and industry-leading technology—before and after sign up.

One of the gifts with Subsplash is how much their team helps and how much access to their team you have. So at no point did I feel like I was in over my head, or this wasn't something that I could figure out. Instead, it was a very seamless process from start to finish. I felt like we were taken care of.” —Gavin Lamming, Rockharbor Church
