Serving at Oak Tree is a practical way we live out our mission to Know, Love, and Serve Jesus Christ and the people around us. Below you'll find encouraging Bible verses and a "List of Ministies" detailing our growing needs and opportunities to serve. We hope you will pray and consider serving with us!
- Spiritual gifts are given to the church body “to serve one another” (1 Peter 4:10).
- Exercising “care for one another” is a strategy against division (1 Corinthians 12:25).
- Believers must “show hospitality” (1 Peter 4:9) and “contribute to the needs of the saints” (Romans 12:13).
- As members serve in the church they “make the body grow so that it builds itself up in love” (Ephesians 4:16).
- For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. (Galatians 5:13).
