First Sundays

On the first Sunday of the month, we have potluck on the lawn at 9:45am. Bring a side dish to share and spend some time with our church family.

As we feed our church, we also want to help feed our neighbors. We host a monthly food collection for the Oak View food pantry to provide enough food for families in our community. Drop off an item or two from this list by 11am at the Connection table so we can help build up the food supply.
