AY in the Afternoon

 AY has been happening at OCC  for a few weeks now.

Singing and games and maybe other  things too.

Delesha lead out in the singing.  The Shar got a game of Draw Your Swords going.  Prayer was offered.

It was a fast paced game of waiting until the phrase Draw Your Swords was said to hold up your Bible then someone remind me what was said next that Craig and I kept forgetting once the Bible text was given.

Whoever found the text first stood up and began reading it. If it was the correct verse that team got to move their person up one giant step. 

There are some pretty quick Bible verse finders at OCC. 















It was found out that we like our own Bibles best to read out of. 


The speaker for this Sabbath. 

Treated with snow one night this past week.

It was fun.

Come today at 3 pm and find a treat for song service time. 

See you.

March 14th Spring Break Started

 It was a fine Sabbath Day.

Prayer Time is for everyone.  It is powerful to hear someone pray for you or your family. 

Come at 9:30 and join in.

Alex was ready for teaching the lesson and it was great to discuss this lesson together.

Thank you for coming out for this sharing time. 





Reading the Bible texts.

Mission Spotlight came next to close SS. 
We encourage you to take you conversations into the foyer so all can hear well during Mission Spotlight.  

Praise Time with The Curries followed. 

And there were two baptisms in the middle of that. 

Jamieson and Cameron Snyder gave their lives to Jesus this morning.

We were so glad to be a part of this time.



Special gifts...
Children Church Day...







Voting the brothers in to church fellowship.



We were excited to welcome these two young men into our church family.

Grandma shared how the special gifts from Texas arrived just in time to have them at this service. She thanked God for directing them where they needed to be at the right time. 


























Special music by Tammy...a beautiful solo...

Karen the Elder of the week.

Sweet little notes from students in elementary school at the Academy thanking everyone for giving to the school.






A full church is a great place to be. 

So thankful for all who came out for the baptism.
