Small Groups
The small group ministry at Oceanside Christian Fellowship exists to help friends to become family, and to equip our church family to create spiritual transformation in our community. By doing this, we fulfill God's direction in Ephesians 4:12-13- "to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ." And, Matthew 28: 18-20- "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you."
Join OCF's Small Group Bible Studies
Our OCF mid-week focus is both biblical and relational - we are growing in the Lord and with one another. Small groups consist of 8-12 adults who meet in homes and at the church throughout the week.
The relationships built during our small group times enable us to deepen both our spiritual foundation and our family support system.
Grow in your relationship with God and build deeper friendships with others here at OCF...
By participating in OCF small groups, men and women can come face-to-face with the transforming power of God through an encounter with His written Word and His grace in the lives of other believers. Small groups are central to Oceanside Christian Fellowship's disciple-making ministry.
