History of Solid Rock Cafe
In August 1999 as a result of the great need to tackle the high volume of young people and their families affected by substance misuse that was being seen in the Fraserburgh area, numerous agencies including churches lead by Ben Ritchie and a number of others came together and took the initiative to set up the the Solid Rock Cafe in Fraserburgh town centre. Today the Solid Rock has become more than just a cafe. Developing into such areas as a Rehabilitation Centre and various other outreach projects. The vision has now grown to become 'Solid Rock Ministries'.

WHAT WE DO
Fight against the drug/alcohol abuse problem by providing Christian Addiction Support Groups, Parent Support Groups and referrals to rehabilitation centres, showing those involved in addiction that Christ offers a new life. Prevent the younger generation from being molded into the same lifestyle which society in Fraserburgh seems to dictate, by providing alternative entertainment through activities and by integrating them into church life. Build Relationships through various social, sports and entertainment events in a friendly atmosphere. Create a Safe Haven for people who are hurting and need to share their problems. It's a safe place where we can offer hope. Promote Unity between various churches and denominations joining Christians together for a common purpose. Partner with churches and mission organizations internationally through short term mission teams and missionary placements. |  Pastor Ben Ritchie & family Contact details:
