Christ in the Passover: A Presentation
Join us for a powerful presentation from Jews for Jesus of the beautiful symbolism of the Jewish ceremony called a seder.

The words “do this in remembrance of me” will take on an even deeper meaning to Christians as we learn the significance of the tradition Jesus observed the night before He died and give us a closer look at the very Jewish life He led.

Ukrainian Relief
We have all watched the news of the invasion of Ukraine and the growing refugee crisis. As Community Church Oshkosh we have come alongside trusted ministries that have direct involvement in meeting the needs of the refugees. The Community Church Mission Team has sent financial support to the Converge Relief Fund, Josiah Ventures, and a church in the Polish city of Chelm, about 15 miles from the border with Ukraine.
