This year’s Holy Season Worship Service is titled, “Holy Forever.” The OMPC Worship Ministry will lead us through reflection beginning with the Garden when sin was introduced. When Adam and Eve were cast out of the Garden, they were living in the shadows of the cherubim and flaming sword, covered in shame. Their sin brought darkness, shame, doubt and fear into the world, and we still feel the effects today. But God. Through His loving kindness sent His Son Jesus to take on the punishment we all deserve on the cross and conquered all, rising from the dead. So through believing in Him we are, ushered into a life freed from the power of sin and we look forward to dwelling with God once more, Holy Forever.

Celebrate the Resurrection at OMPC! Lead Pastor Caleb Click will preach from John 11, which announces that Christ is the one who can restore what we have lost in our broken world. He gives hope to those who live in a world of despair, and he can be trusted no matter how dire our circumstances or how deep our lack of understanding.  

Our services are at 8:15 and 10:45 am, with Discipleship Classes at 9:30 am. Childcare is provided for Nursery and Preschool for all three times and our Kindergarten through 2nd Graders will meet for Kids Worship after the worship set of the 10:45 am Service. 

Worship with us at 7:00 am on Good Friday. We'll gather in the Sanctuary to hear from different OMPC ministry leaders on the last words of Christ on the Cross. This service will last about 45 minutes and the congregation will be dismissed in silence for a time of reflection. 

Kick off Holy Week at OMPC with our Palm Sunday Service. Join us for one service only at 10:45 am! Our 9:30 am Discipleship Classes will not be meeting, and only nursery and preschool are offered for childcare. We'll gather for our regular Sunday morning schedule for Easter Services next Sunday. 

Invite your friends and neighbors to join us for this year's Oak Kids Eggstravaganza! We will start the event at 10:00 am in the Sanctuary for worship and an Easter messge by Lead Pastor Caleb Click. At 10:30 am, we will dismiss by age groups to various zones around the church for the Egg Grab! Following the Egg Grab, head out to the parking lot for fun on the inflatables and grab a bite to eat from one of the Food Trucks on site. Info: Barbara Lindsey

One of our Values at OMPC is to be “Relationally Authentic.” We strive to be a place of restoration AND strength; a community where we can be honest about our brokenness AND call one another to the hope that is promised in Christ.

Join us for “Strength in Weakness,” an evening to gather together and hear from a panel of women who will share how the Lord has met and continues to meet them in their times of greatest need. Our prayer through this gathering is that we would see how our stories of brokenness lead us to the strength that can only be found in Jesus, and that we would walk forward in hope together. 

Come together across The Table with OMPC Young Professionals at our featured Spring Event! We’ll gather at Seeds Coffee in Edgewood and hear from our new Lead Pastor, Caleb Click.

This year’s Kids Musical is based off the Parable of the Good Samaritan and titled, “Not Just With Our Words.” Come out to support the kids and be encouraged by their presentation of this gospel-centered narrative! The performance is Saturday, February 17 at 4:30 pm in the Sanctuary.

Join us as we lift our voices in praise while journeying down memory lane with our favorite hymns we love to sing!

On Monday, February 12, 2024, at 11 a.m. the Forerunners at OMPC will welcome Frank Jones, of Frank Jones Ministries, as he leads us in an Old Fashioned Hymn Sing-A-Long followed by lunch. It will be an uplifting and joyful time of worship and fellowship as we allow the old hymns to transport us to a time when hymns were a favorite form of worship. 

The cost of lunch and the Sing-A-Long is $15. We can't wait to worship with you!

You don’t have to search far to find sobering articles and statistics that describe the dangers (both physical and emotional) of isolation and lack of true community in America and worldwide. The church has the solution to this cultural void of satisfying community and deeper friendship and, yet, we still struggle with isolation. Come on November 7 to dive into this topic of Biblical friendship as we hear from some professional counselors from among our church family who bring a wealth of wisdom and experience on the topic of loneliness, isolation and biblical friendship.

Each year at OMPC, we take two Sundays in the Fall to step back and consider the work God is doing in and through the ministry of OMPC and the role we play in participating in His Kingdom work through our giving toward the church! This season is called Stewardship Season. Lead Pastor Bob Flayhart will continue his series in Galatians but will jump ahead to chapter 6 where the apostle Paul talks about practicing generosity.

Sunday, November 5, is Stewardship Sunday. This is the day we encourage all of our congregation to prayerfully consider their intention to give toward OMPC in 2024 and turn in their intention card during worship. By filling out your intention card, you are helping OMPC budget for the upcoming ministry year! You can also fill out a digital card through the link below.

Guys, do you find yourself wondering where to start with daily devotions & Bible reading?  Do you wonder how to help your family or friends with that as well? You're not alone! Join us for breakfast and teaching on how to God through Scripture as well as how to share that with family and friends. 

We’ll be led by Ted Sinn, creator of the Seeing Jesus Together Journal. This journal will also be the 2024 guide for OMPC members to spend daily time with Jesus and share that in community. Our men’s event will be a great introduction to this concept and the journal we’ll use church-wide!
