The Church at Eastern Oaks exists to collectively pursue intimacy with God through obedience to God in order to advance the Kingdom of God all for the glory of God (John 17:3, Phil. 3:8-10, John 14:15, 1 John 5:3, Matt. 28:18-20, 1 Cor. 10:31, Rev. 4:11). The goal of Eastern Oaks is to grow a diverse and loving congregation whose sole desire is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ through our obedience to Him, and service to the World. We believe the Mission of the Church is the Great Commission found in Matthew 28:18-20, and can be summed up by our Eastern Oaks Mission statement which states that the purpose of the
Church is: “To bring people to Jesus and membership in His family, develop them to Christ-like maturity, and equip them for their ministry in the Church and life mission in the world, in order to magnify and glorify God’s name.”
It is the Vision of Eastern Oaks to work toward this end, so that…“By 2020 Eastern Oaks will be a Spirit-led and diverse family of believers, numbering in the hundreds, dedicated to the infallible Word of God, needs-based outreach, small-group discipleship, unity, and service to all through the practice of our spiritual gifts.”
Here at Eastern Oaks we truly believe the family of God includes every person who has accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior, regardless of age, gender, race, or ethnicity. We welcome all people into our local church family, as we hope to always reflect the picture of the Church found in Revelation 7:9-10, “After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud
voice, ‘Salvation belong to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”
