CHURCH COMMISSIONS

Commissions are groups who meet to serve different aspects of the church.

Hark, the voice of Jesus calling, “Who will go and work today? Fields are white and harvest waiting, Who will bear the sheaves away?” Loud and long the master calls you; Rich reward he offers free. Who will answer, gladly saying, “Here am I. Send me, send me”?

Our Redeemer is Reaching Out and Moving Forward!

Will You Answer God’s Calling?

Will You Become the Hands and Feet of the Master?

The mission statement for the Adult Nurture Commission is to provide opportunities for the learning and sharing of God’s word to all adult members at ORL as well as the community as it is said in Proverbs 9:9 “Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be still wiser; teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.”

The Adult Nurture Commission would like to invite everyone to learn and live life together through bible study and forming relationships, so that all may be fed in the word.

Worship

Meets the 2nd Monday of Every Month at 7:00 p.m.

Following the mandate of Holy Scripture, the Worship Commissions strives to follow God’s Third Commandment to remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy and sacred. We obey that command by assuring that ORL provides corporate worship opportunities and encourages its members to attend public worship.

The Technology and Communication Commission strives to produce and maintain the technology and communication for ORL. These methods include updating social media sites with current events, creating and volunteering to operate the worship service slide presentations and live Facebook stream, managing the ORL website, and keeping other electronics throughout the church building in working order. If you are excited by the thought of serving God and our church in this capacity, please join us!
