Sunday, November 2, 2025
Worship services are at 8:30am & 10am. We'll continue our series "Story" this Sunday! This Sunday, we'll focus on what happens when we forget who we are and try to find our identity in anything or anyone besides God. We will be taking communion together at both the 8:30 and 10am services.
Friendly reminder: It's time to 'Fall Back'! Daylight Saving Time ends on Sunday, November 2, 2025. Set your clocks back one hour at 2 a.m. local time and gain an extra hour of sleep.
Community Kids will be open for Full Programming during the 8:30am & 10am services. Community Kids Unlimited (CKU), our special needs children's ministry, will be available at the 8:30am service.
Here are the songs we will be singing:
Firm Foundation - Capitol CMG
Ask Seek Pray - River Valley Worship
More Like Jesus - Canaan Baca Music and Capitol CMG Genesis
The Cafe
This weekend in the cafe we will be serving Muffins!
Gabi and Elliott serve in Poland - one of the least-reached countries on the least-reached continent of Europe with an evangelical population of 0.3%. Long having both served with youth and youth leaders, God introduced Gabi and Elliott to a Polish organization called Chrześcijańska Służba Muzyczna (CSM) - a ministry called to equip worship leaders and musicians to be disciple-makers in the local church in Poland.
Their prayer is to see God transform Poland through believing musicians, and through Poland, to transform Europe and the world.

GROUPS
CCO Women's Ministry - Upcoming Bible Studies!
Advent Bible Study - Thursday Morning
The Christmas story, or Advent, is more than a sentimental myth or a quiet manger scene we use to decorate our living rooms. The Christmas story is the good news of God entering into the darkness of our world. Join J.D. Greear in this four-session series as he takes a deeper look at Jesus as Emmanuel, our Wonderful Counselor, the Everlasting Father, and the great I Am. When you know Jesus, you will realize Christmas is more than a nice story—the arrival of Jesus changes everything.
Begins November 6th at CCO for 5 weeks
Awakening Wonder - Thursday Evening
In ‘Awakening Wonder – Experiencing the Nearness of Jesus’, you are invited into this centuries-old practice of Advent—the intentional anticipation of God’s presence with man. During the season of Advent, you’ll join with Christians around the world to prepare your heart to celebrate the incarnation—the accomplishment of God taking the form of a human and dwelling among us. This study was designed to help you meditate on and marvel at Jesus’s incarnation, the wonderful truth that Jesus took on flesh and came near to us.
Begins November 4th at 6:15pm at CCO in CL4
Women's Christmas Brunch
His birth in Bethlehem was not His origin, only His incarnation.
Join us for a beautiful morning of connection, worship, and celebration at our Flourish Christmas Brunch on Saturday, December 13th from 9:30am-12pm. This year’s theme is “Proclaiming the Incomparable Christ,” with a keynote message from Charisse Williams, who will guide us into a deeper understanding of the Pre-Incarnate Christ.

MISSIONS
This month we are highlighting Damascus Road Project!
Damascus Road Project was founded in 2009 and is dedicated to fighting the evil of sex trafficking and sexual exploitation. We began as a grass roots ministry and recruited volunteers from church to help with the ministry. We worked out of our cars and our homes for many years until we finally had a permament office in 2018. We recently re-located from that space to 1528 Oregon Street in Oshkosh.
Learn more about their ministry HERE.
