Bread Baking Adventure

Tomorrow - Saturday, October 3 (9:30 a.m.–12:00 p.m.) in the Seminary, bakers and taste testers of all ages are invited to a special morning of fellowship and baking with Pastor Lawrence. As we prepare the loaves that will grace our Communion table for World Communion Sunday, we’ll celebrate the simple ingredients that connect us to Christ, the Bread of Life.

Also on Sundays November 1, 8, 15 and 22.

We Are Seeking A Custodian
As our ministry continues to grow and flourish, we are continually reminded that every single role on our team helps make God’s good news visible. We are actively seeking a part-time custodian (paid up to 15 hours/week) who brings both a hard-working spirit and a pleasant, warm heart to our congregational life. From prepping spaces for Sunday mornings to keeping our common areas well-maintained, you’ll be an essential part of the ministry that keeps our mission moving forward. If you are curious about how your gifts - or someone you know - may build up our church family, reach out to Pastor Lawrence or the church office today!

Together We Can...
Seeking God means many things, including choosing a life of love and service. OPC’s history is sharing her love and bountiful resources with others. Let’s bring that history into our future as well, whether you decide to be “active” or “unseen;” to donate financial resources and/or volunteer your time or share your talents and skills. Planning for the future is happening now, so now is the time to contribute your “piece” to complete the picture of OPC.

Living into Hope
When we break the bread together,
we proclaim that God’s love is not
a scarce commodity to be guarded,
but an endless feast to be shared
across every border and boundary.
