Right now, because of COVID-19, everything is different at OCC. To help us adhere to the 30% maximum capacity requirement, we ask those who are coming to our in-person service to register either online through the link below, or by calling OCC.
Registration will close Friday morning at 9 am, to give us time to set up properly. If we reach capacity, we will have a waiting list. Those on the waiting list will be given first chance at registering for the next Sunday (and will be contacted if there are any cancellations). Please plan to come a bit early to facilitate the seating process.
The doors will open on Sundays, at 9:30 am for our 10am service.
We trust and pray that as you read and listen that you will be blessed.
Today we are continuing in our series looking at Faithful Practices
last month we focused on the Table of the Lord | Communion | Eucharist
last week we looked at Reconciliation.
We encourage you to take a few minutes as you prepare to watch the video
sit still,
breathe in, breath out a couple of times
invite the Lord to make himself present with you as you watch – he is with you – it’s just that sometimes we are not aware that he is.
prepare your heart to listen and receive
Read Romans 5:1-5 as you enter into our time together.
giving
In this new way of being the church, we don’t practice giving by placing our offering in a basket as it is passed.
OCCers are generous people. Thank you for your gifts.
Some of you give when you attend a service (there is an offering box)
We are partnering with the Lighthouse to host the distribution of winter clothing. We are looking for donations of clothing, especially children and youth sizes.

reading the Gospel of John
During the month of November, we want to read through the Gospel of John together. We have designed this reading plan so that we have a couple of days to catch up each week – i.e. we will read 21 chapters in 30 days.
We encourage you to share what stands out to you, what God’s Spirit makes come alive to you as you read. Share what you are learning or being reminded of in the comments on the post on this page.
You can download a copy of the reading plan here. It’s never too late to start.
