Our Vision:

To see our communities touched and transformed by the love of God (Isaiah 61)

Isaiah 61 is the Bible scripture that gave rise to our name ‘the Oaks’, and that we want to live out. 

“The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon me, for the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to comfort the brokenhearted and to proclaim that captives will be released and prisoners will be freed…They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor.” – Isaiah 61:1 & 3

Our Mission:

‘Knowing Jesus, becoming like Jesus and making Jesus known’ 

Our heart is to know Jesus personally so that we can grow in love, and share this love and the good news we experience with others in our communities. We aim to achieve this by: 

  1. Being a family! We believe that relationship is key to our life as a church. We are the body and Jesus is our head.
  2. Being active in our own spiritual growth and contributing to the wider discipleship of the church family. We learn to feed ourselves and each other.
  3. Serving our church family and local community from a position of rest; our priority is spending time with Jesus. We go at Jesus’ pace.
  4. Becoming more like Jesus, through the Holy Spirit in us and the love of others. We seek to share that with everyone in our community. We are blessed to be a blessing!

Our Values: 

We want to have a:

1. High View of God 

2. High View of Others 

3. High View of Ourselves 

And show:

4. Sacrificial Love
