Mission Statement

We will be the body of Christ in our Community by Connecting with God, Growing in Discipleship, and Serving the World.

On Sunday we kicked off 2024 with a new sermon series focusing on all of the ways God is making our lives new - from our physical health to our spiritual health and everything in between. Sunday was also Baptism of the Lord Sunday, a Sunday when we celebrate the baptism of Jesus by remembering and celebrating our own baptism. It was a wonderful way to begin a new year at Oak Grove.

The staff, church leadership, and I are busy planning and preparing for Lent which begins on Ash Wednesday, February 14^th……yes, Ash Wednesday is on Valentine’s Day this year. In the meantime, we look forward to focusing on how we can experience new life spiritually, physically, emotionally, relationally, and financially in the coming weeks.

I pray that you and your loved ones were not impacted by the storms earlier this week. May your week be filled with Grace upon Grace.

I look forward to seeing you Sunday!
