This is the memorial board from 1978 when the sanctuary was built.
We will be doing another memorial plaque for 2026 from now thru mid Sept to raise money for our building update projects.
Any amount- just mark it towards memorial.
Give names to go on plaque to Serena.
This will help us finish roof sealing, door repair, and a very overdue and much needed bathroom upgrade.
Thank you for your faithfulness.
See you Sunday!

47 hungry souls and enough food to feed twice that many makes for a great way to celebrate our country's 250th Birthday.
Enjoy the 4th and stay safe
See you all on the 5th.

On this Memorial day weekend I remember my friends and family who served in the military. Honestly, it made me a little homesick spending time in my memories of people and places that are important to me.
You see, one cannot be a mountaineer without experiencing the mountains, coal mines, pinto beans, fried potatoes, and cornbread.
One cannot be from a bluegrass state without understanding horse racing and the Kentucky Derby.
One cannot be a Hoosier without an intense understanding of college football and basketball.
I've been them all, but what I most love being is a follower of Christ with an understanding of how much Jesus loves His church. Jesus calls the church His bride. It is Holy and it is Sacred.
It saddens me that humans somehow got it in their minds that church should be exactly as they need it to be, instead of what Christ calls out for it to be.
I love that Ocklawaha Community Church is a place that constantly seeks to be a church full of the Holy Spirit and God's leading.
Let's keep praying as God is leading us towards new seasons. He has something great and exciting as we move into the future with Him.

Time to say a big thank you to some awesome people that keep this place running.
1. Our finance team - Donna K., Nancy G.,
Cindy F, and Fae R. They due a great job counting, depositing, recording and making sure all bills get paid and the checkbook balances. These ladies work with such honesty and integrity so we never have to worry about the state of our finances.
2. Our thrift store workers are the best. Selena, Linda, Mike, and Annette do an amazing job sorting and selling. The thrift store is busier than ever - not only being a store, but also being a mission. Lots of struggles and prayers are shared on any given day during thrift store hours.
3. Bill does a great job keeping things fixed up and our grounds looking good.
4. Our musicians - Amanda and Wes are the best. Wes also does a great job filling the pulpit from time to time.
5. Our congregation, faithful to pray, faithful to meet, and faithful to love and encourage - simply a joy to be part of it.
Thank you all for loving Jesus, His church, and each other.
See you Sunday in person or online.
