Men’s Retreat

Branches Men are heading to Catalina Island October 17-19 for our annual retreat!

We'll be digging into the theme of being anchored in Christ and enjoying a weekend away with solid Bible teaching, meals, and a variety of activities such as paddle boarding, snorkeling, swimming, hiking, volleyball, and basketball.

All of us will leave together from San Pedro on the ferry to Catalina Island on Friday and return that Sunday. $275 covers ferry, lodging, food, and activities for the entire weekend.

Hymn Sing

Gather with us on Sunday 10/26 at 5pm in the worship center for a night of traditional hymns and praise, hosted by Dan & Ruth Willard and featuring Sammy Roberson as our guest song leader. In addition to worship, we’ll also be learning the stories behind some of our favorite hymns.

All ages welcome!


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.


Seek Week 2025

Seek Week is a series of prayer gatherings that unites the Church all over Orange County to intercede on behalf of our communities. In a season marked by unrest and uncertainty for our nation, Seek Week calls churches of different sizes, ethnicities, and expressions to place our hope in God. 

Join pastors and Jesus followers from cities across OC for this set-apart week to kindle fresh hope through sustained prayer together. Our local gathering will take place on Monday 11/3 at 6:30pm at Branches Church.

Monthly potluck

We gather for breakfast between our morning services on the first Sunday of the month. Bring a side dish to share and say hi to someone new!

Community

Church isn’t confined to a Sunday gathering. It happens in living rooms, around kitchen tables, and in backyards across the city every week, as we share life together as the family of God.
