What visitors say
This is where we call home. Such a warm invitation from 1st day and on. We can call the people here some of our closest friends. Loved this church! My granddaughter was Baptized! This is my home church. I've looked far and wide and this is the closest I've found to what a church should be. The north American church model can be found on almost any street corner and that's not what I was looking for. The same old thing doesn't challenge me, help me to grow, and make an impact in the community as it's primary role. This place does all those things and does them well. The Sunday message is given by a rotating group as well as guest speakers. In my opinion this is necessary so that no one gets a big head and has a great fall like we've seen so many times before. Most churches are churches WITH small groups, Oakwood is a church OF small groups. They're focus is outward, growing the universal body of Christ. Not inward, growing the number of attendees. When was the last time you heard a pastor more concerned with spreading the gospel and making disciples (who then go and make other disciples who start their own church) than growing their own numbers?? That's why I'm here. Oakwood is a wonderful family-centered Church that is inclusive and friendly. We felt right away at home and we're welcomed into their congregation. We visited other churches but none of them felt as warm and friendly as oakwood. There are lots of programs including small groups and programs for kids. They have a soccer Clinic twice a year for children, an easter event and Holiday events. They teach ESL to students for free, and offer many other opportunities including Bible studies women's meetings men's meetings and more. They also have a robust youth group and children's ministry. If you're looking for a place to call home for your family, this is a great place to be Such an amazing church they open their doors to so many! Even our homeschooling kiddos! Teach is such an amazing opportunity for us as parents trying to spice up our kids learning!!
