Lubbock Dream Center or Dream Center in Lubbock is a nonprofit organization associated with the Church on the Rock both located in Lubbock, Texas, in the United States. The Dream Center was established in 2006. The Church on the Rock officially opened the doors to the Lubbock Dream Center on April 17, 2010. But long before that, the ground work of ministry was being put in place through their food ministry, beach club to elementary students, and adopt-a-block programs. The Dream Center is dedicated to investing in the needs of people; restoring hope, helping people help themselves and encouraging them to touch other lives.

History
In 2006, Pastor Jackie began to see how God had called his congregation to reach out into a part of the community that it had previously had very little impact on. He began to look at a square mile within our city that was in desperate need of spiritual, physical, and emotional growth. Today, the land and building that are in place, the ministry and outreach that is taking place, and the multitude of lives that have already been touched are a by-product of Pastor Jackie and Church on the Rock’s willingness to step in and remain a part of this neighborhood.
