Oasis Core Values
At Oasis Church membership means participating in ministry by partnering with us to create an atmosphere where barriers are broken down and folks will be able to meet Jesus. We have an enjoyable membership process, but we don’t push or make it mandatory. However, we do encourage and require active participation from all those who desire to call Oasis their church home.
We’ve made it easy and fun to become involved by emphasizing what we call our Core Values. These measurable Core Values or 4Cs as we call them will guide us as we seek to fulfill our vision to “compassionately introduce Jesus and His love to tens of thousands of hungry and hurting singles and young families all around the world.”
COMMUNICATE: Since God cares about lost people and wants them found, it’s expected of our regular attendees to be actively involved in inviting those who are far from God to one of our worship experiences. This means that they will seek out and develop relationships with people who need Jesus Christ. The cool thing is that Oasis Church will team up with you by creating real and engaging worship experiences where new people will feel comfortable and the gospel message will be clearly presented.
CONNECT: An important aspect of Oasis is connecting in community with others and “doing life” together. Joining an Oasis Connect Group is a great way to meet friends, get support and grow spiritually all at the same time. We expect that everyone who wants to be part of Oasis Church will join a small group that meets regularly for Accountability, Belonging, and Care.
CONTRIBUTE: The good news is that everybody has gift or two that can be used for the Lord’s glory and for helping others get closer to Him . At Oasis, we will create opportunities for you to develop your gifts through volunteering in Service Teams. Every volunteer role such as being a greeter, hosting a Connect Group, helping out with the kids or playing in the worship band is as important as any other in the entire church.
CHANGE: We will aggressively and enthusiastically embrace change by using a variety of methods in compassionately reaching as many hungry and hurting people for Jesus as possible. This oftentimes means taking creative faith-filled risks.
