Women On Mission Ministry

Women of the Oaks are committed to nurturing a love for the church, encouraging women to serve those in need, building community, and sharing love. As a unified body of believers we desire to inspire, equip, support, and disciple women to live fully in God's purpose. We fulfill that vision by creating opportunities and resources for women to discover gifts and be empowered to fulfill HIS purpose.



"We strive to create spaces and experiences through worship, study, workshops, and community service to inspire women to love God, love themselves, and love one another." 

MISSION FOR SEPTEMBER AND OCTOBER

Oip
CANDY! CANDY! CANDY!
 
During the months of September AND October we will be collecting bags of individually wrapped candy that will be given out during the Trick or Treat downtown celebration in October. If each church family could donate 1, 2, or several LARGE bags of candy it would go a long way. There were LOTS of children last year, and the candy went fast! You may leave your candy in the library.
 
Please take the time to notice the display in the back of the sanctuary featuring things from 20 years ago when we served on several mission trips to assist in cleanup from Hurricane Katrina. As I was putting the display together I couldn’t help but flip through the albums to notice those who are no long with us. Whether they were members who have gone on to Heaven or youth who have grown up and moved out and in other directions with their own families, one thing is certain. Each of them holds a place in Oaks history servanthood. Since Katrina we’ve suddenly experienced our devastation from a hurricane. It was a time when our little community came together working, loving, and serving for the common good of each other.
 
I’d like for you to think and ponder where we may be in 20 more years? What about 10 years? Maybe even 6 months? Friends. God is calling us — women AND men to serve! I challenge you to find a place and get plugged in. You won’t regret it! We need your candy! Fall Bible Study starting in October!
