For 31 years, God has been faithful to The Oaks Community Church, and for the past 20 years, He has blessed us with a beautiful home where lives have been changed, faith has been strengthened, and countless hearts have encountered His presence. As we step into a new season of ministry, we sense God calling us to ELEVATE—to lift His house higher so that His glory can shine even brighter through our worship, hospitality, and outreach.

Over the past year, your generosity has already made an incredible difference. We’ve repaved our parking lot, recarpeted the sanctuary, refreshed our Alliance Youth Room and begun acoustic improvements to enhance our worship experience. But this is only the beginning as we build for the next generation.

Our Elevate Thanksgiving Offering is a three-year vision designed to elevate our worship, hospitality, and outreach. Phase One focuses on Elevating Our Worship, with the goal of raising $150,000 by the end of this year. These funds will allow us to repaint the sanctuary, complete acoustic upgrades, build a floor-level sound desk, purchase modern digital sound equipment, and enhance our live stream experience—creating a space that inspires powerful worship and draws hearts closer to God.

As Isaiah 2:2 declares, “Now it will be that in the last days the mountain of the house of Yahweh will be established as the head of the mountains, and will be lifted up [elevated]... and all the nations will stream to it.” (LSB) When we elevate His house, we create a place that draws people to His presence.

We invite everyone—every family, every friend, every heart that calls The Oaks home—to give generously. Whether it’s a one-time gift or a recurring pledge, your contribution becomes part of something eternal. Together, let’s elevate His house so His light can reach even farther. Check out some of the things we've been able to do below .
