As I stood up in front of all the folks who showed up for our first Christmas Eve as a new and growing church family, I was so overwhelmed with joy thinking about how God honors faith-filled risking taking for the Kingdom. Looking out at them with my IPhone, I asked them if I could take a picture! They said yes, but I mean, what were they gonna say on Christmas Eve? LOL.  BTW, I’ll be putting up pictures soon, but in between that time I have video of the service for those who were not able to be there, or are curious about how we do a message at OC:

Over all, I guess the purpose of this blog entry is to remind myself and others that God honors vision and faith, and to let newcomers on this site know that Oasis-Church-NJ.com is a new casual, contemporary Christian church that meets Sundays at 11am at 1180 Spruce Dr in Mountainside, and during the the week in Connect Groups in various locations around NJ. So if any of you out there are yearning for more of God, meaning and purpose in life, come check us out. At Oasis you will enjoy a fun  laid back setting, great music  and relevant messages you can use in real life and meeting and connecting with new friends.

One prong of our outreach strategy was to do the Alpha Course as a way of of reaching the unchurched and growing connect groups (small groups) simultaneously. Our 3/22/09 kick-off attracted 101 folks including our 10 team members! Now into week seven in early May we have four healthy and bonding small groups made up mostly  of unchurched people  seeking for more of God. And we also thank the Lord for the folks to have stepped up to become part of our newly forming contemporary Christian church band.

Another prong of our contemporary Christian church strategy includes a steady dose of Servant Evangelism in the surrounding communities of Union County:

At least once a week this Summer Oasis-Church-NJ.com will be engaging people with simple acts of kindness like the water bottles we gave recently  gave out to thirsty people on a steamy hot day at the Westfield Spring Fling.

Overall, every week  we are meeting people who are buying into our vision for a contemporary Christian church in Union County that will compassionately share Jesus with the hungry and hurting here and all around the world.
