Ministries at OBC
We love little ones and our preschool area is one designed for each age from babies to three year olds. They learn about God and enjoy hands on, fun activities to do in their classes.
As children grow older, their ability to understand what God is saying to them grows, as well, so we concentrate on helping them and their parents know Christ better. There are various activities and music times during the year to give them a variety of opportunities to learn about the Bible and the ways of God.
Our youth are learning to know what it means to have Jesus as their Lord. Using some fun and helpful activities to grow in Christ as they serve, invite friends, and share Christ with others, our youth are very active. There are numerous ways in which our youth are learning about Jesus.
We have a variety of mnistries available for adults including men's and women's ll of our adults know that ministry is important, which has encouraged them to join in one of our numerous ministries. Some join several, while others have only one or two to which they feel called to participate in during the year. Most of the ministries are available for both men and women, but many take place at different times of the year.
We're very excited to be offering our full complement of Sunday morning activities again. But that doesn't mean we aren't taking precautions. We're still social distancing and encouraging masks as well as sanitizing the facility. Our Children's and Preschool hallway is taking temps and requiring masks for teachers and children 2 yrs and up. (We will be understanding and gracious as we work with our little ones to keep masks on.)
Please join us this Sunday! If service gets too crowded for you we have a mask only overflow room and a worship livestream on our Facebook page which is linked at the bottom of this website. We hope to see you soon!
Our ladies are very active in their pursuit of God's desire for them to be the women of God that they need to be. From being "secret sisters" to one another, to be being involved in a ladies Bible study that does service in the community, the women in this ministry keep encouraging each other through a variety of activities.
Guys enjoy meeting together and learning how to be the men of God that they have been called to be. Our men are very open to newcomers and involving them in our activities and studies. We meet several times a year as a team, go to different events for training and uplifting times of learning about how to be Godly fathers and husbands.

Our music is in great shape with Michael Johnson as our new music minister. We have a dynamic choir that sings each week and leads our congregation in worship. From Easter to Christmas Cantatas, our music people are always working towards leading our people to the throne of God in worship.
