Founders:

The late Bishop Dell Rose and his lovely wife, Sis. Dorothy Rose

Elder Dell Rose was born in Oklahoma on May 6, 1933. Having served 12 years
under Elder Jimmy Davis, in Weedpatch, CA. Bro. Rose began evangelizing,
with his faithful wife, in 1968, and then in February 1970,
they founded The First Apostolic Church of Lompoc.

He passed away gently at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital on Monday morning, April 26, 2021.
We are beyond sad to lose our faithful Pastor Dell Rose, who became Bishop Dell Rose
on May 18, 2020, when he appointed Bro. James Ball to become pastor.

He fought the Good Fight and Kept the Faith and Finished His Course.

We know he is much better off now waiting on the Lord.
