RELATIONSHIPS FOR YOUR
Whole Family
Gospel-revealing Community Groups help you build biblical friendship that grow as you study and apply the Bible to your life with others. Your group grows together as you work together serve others through love. The Bible calls this koinonia, or fellowship, when our relationships and cooperative efforts are centered around proclaiming the name of Jesus Christ!
These relationships are gospel-revealing because they are formed by the unity we have as followers of Jesus Christ. The gospel is the good news that Jesus paid the penalty for our sin by His death on the cross, and when we turn away from our life of sin and put our faith in His free offer of salvation, this alone restores our once-broken relationship with God.
God then gives His Church, Christians, supernatural relationships that grow into a special kind of community that glorifies God because they make His invisible power and wisdom visible!

First Impressions
We all like to put our best foot forward when we are meeting new people. This is what we try to do at Oak Grove as well, from greeting, to serving coffee, to providing kids bags for new families with kids. If your gift is hospitality, this may be a great fit for you!
Children/Youth Ministry
Between youth and children Sunday School, Awana, VBS, and Youth Group, there are plenty of ways to invest in the lives of kids at Oak Grove!
Media
Sound, lights, livestream, lyric projection, videography as well as our Story Team are all ways you could get involved in our Media Ministry. Let us know if any of these areas are where the Lord has gifted you.
