WHAT DOES CHRISTMAS LOOK LIKE AT OCC?
We are starting a new sermon series December 3rd called "What stole Christmas?". The Christmas season is a time to reflect on the birth of Jesus and how God sent His son for us; however, sometimes there are circumstances in life that steals our focus. We will look at the different things that steal your attention away from where it should be. You can join us each week to worship at 9:00am or 10:30am, in person or online via Facebook LIVE. OCCKIDS and OCC Students are offered as well, plus we have the nursery. ​
Christmas Eve SERVICES - December 24th 2:00pm & 4:00pm
We will be hosting 2 family style candle light worship services on Sunday, December 24th. To help balance the services in attendance the times are 2:00pm and 4:00pm. Nursery will be provided for families of children who need it. Since Christmas Eve falls on a Sunday, we will not be having our Sunday morning services. Just the 2:00pm and the 4:00pm. There is an online registration to help us know how many will be with us.

occkids MERRY MARKETPLACE - December 9th 9am-10:45am
All kids look forward to this time of year for a number of reasons, but the biggest one is getting gifts! And who doesn't love gifts? Merry Marketplace is an event where kids can find joy in creating and giving gifts as they remember the story of Jesus' birth.
Merry Marketplace is designed for kids to hear the Christmas story while giving them the opportunity to create meaningful gifts for people they love. The goal is for kids to be able to share the Christmas story with the people they choose to give their gifts to. Bring your family for this meaningful and incredibly fun Christmas event!
