Sabbath at OCC March 1st

 Welcome to OCC!

Arnie was greeting until Jim arrived.



We missed Lori this week but hope she is better soon.

Our starting with Prayer is encouraging as we go along week by week.

It is uplifting to hear the prayers of others and out outlook is cheerful after taking this time to tune ourselves with our Lord and Saviour.

Alex lead the lesson study time.




It is so nice when every one makes their plans and arrangements prior to ss and then everything can flow smoothly.
Mission Spotlight is so good to watch as it gives us a sense of who "our neighbour's" are and the projects we contribute to.

Thank you to Bonnie and Aase for playing piano and organ before Praise Time began.

We were so delighted that our friends found their way back to Kelowna after their extended stay in The Phillipines.
We couldn't help but hug them.






A very nice craft from a different week.

What a great team for singing time.

Doug had a Health Nugget on Sleep. He is enthusiastic. 
So many points made were great to help with having better restful sleep.
Thank you Doug.


This singing group and instrument playing group help the singing to come out. 



Skerika did so well at Platform co ordinator.

















Sabbath March 15th

 Another beautiful Sabbath with wonderful people. 

Prayer Time is such a nice time of prayer. Come pray with us for 20 minutes before the Sabbath School lesson time.

Lesson Study group discussion was so meaningful  and rich yesterday.

I was grateful to see so many out at or before 9:50.

It is amazing to hear the outside door creak and see more people coming into the church!!!

They came and sat in the sanctuary and many participated in the discussion.

When Craig came he took a small section of the lesson to share.

I was very thankful he said yes and participated.  Alison said yes also but sadly we ran out of time. It is good to let people share as much as possible to make this time meaningful.

Mission Spotlight helps us to see a broader scope of our churches world wide and what the needs are.  We are so fortunate that we are able to give finically  and shine Jesus love further.

The major projects talked about in the lesson and Mission Spotlight is what the money we give on 13th Sabbath or the last Sabbath of the quarter goes to these places. Plan on a special give the last Sabbath of March.




Nice to hear the brass again. 

Aase the wonderful organ player.
Joel our percussionist.


A beautiful  instrument. Soon to make music to God.
The singing and playing were such a benefit to the services and many people enjoyed the Praise Time.  Thank you Liza and Loretta and Karen.

Beverly was platform person of the morning and she is organized and pleasant.
