It is that time of year again!
We kicked off our annual Operation Christmas Child campaign for 2020 as we partner with Samaritan’s Purse to take the gospel message and the love of Jesus to children around the world who might not otherwise have an opportunity to hear the life changing message of the Gospel. We have supplies and empty boxes available in the Church Office or you can pick up empty boxes on Sunday morning during our regular worship services. Please join us as we reach out and make an eternal difference in the lives of these special children.
Watch the 1 minute video below for additional information.
Let’s Start Packing!
Join us on Wednesday Evenings!
The book of Judges cracks a window into the depths of the human soul. Watch a nation struggle with its identity and relationship to its God. Heroes and heroines arise, who seem to have the potential to save Israel. But in the end, each proves to be a broken savior that cannot deliver.
In this series, pastor and author J.D. Greear wades into the book of Judges to shine a light onto the muddy waters of human rebellion. The stories and truths within are not just archaic tales with no relevance for us today. Rather, J.D. works through each chapter unpacking the truth of God’s grace in the midst of human wickedness, and shows how only the divine can redeem the fallen.
We will be meeting on Wednesday evenings, beginning at 6:30 pm, via ZOOM conference meeting. You can join us via computer or telephone. Login details will be emailed to all in the congregation. Call the office if you need help.
We look forward to seeing YOU this Wednesday evening!
Online and In-Person Griefshare Classes
Are you feeling discouraged, sad, disconnected, anxious or lonely? Are you wishing we could just get back to our “normal” lives? These feelings are all normal when we have experienced some type of loss in our lives. And these “Stay Home, Stay Healthy” times certainly qualify as a loss! Loss of normal activity, normal social interaction, normal shopping. There is a term for these feelings. It is “grief.” And there are coping techniques which help us navigate times of loss and grief in our lives. Learning these techniques and processing our feelings of loss is what Griefshare is all about!
There are now TWO Griefshare classes offered in Oak Harbor. An In-Person group meets on Tuesdays at 1:30 pm at the Church of the Nazarene and on Online Group meets at Thursday evenings at 6:30 pm. To register, go to Griefshare.org, search for our zip-code and select the group at Church on the Rock.
The class is FREE,
but the information is PRICELESS!
